[Resurrected] what the f**k is wrong with our club

I don't think it is just Manly. There's something seriously off with the NRL game itself. Too many games are utter rubbish. Too much bunker, six agains and too much stoopid rules etc.

Went to a QCup game y'day, no video, no 6 again, it was refreshing. Ref just blew his whistle and everyone got on with the game.
 
No, he's a Penrith junior. Someone explain again how we managed to completely fu*kup by losing the Fainu family. Oh yeah that's right we are stupid.
We had him at Blacktown in 2021.
 
I recall the Glenn Stewart and Foran contract sagas being a huge dent in morale in 2014. We fell off a cliff toward the back end of the year and have never really recovered. I know 2021 is often referenced but I actually think 2019 is the best we've looked since the dynasty ended. We could actually grind out wins and defend quality opposition. We were smashed by injuries when it mattered most and with some better refereeing and a fit squad, we'd have beaten Souths in the SF.
The official date we stopped being contenders is 23 October 2014.

 
The last Joy we Had was in 2011
When The Manly Sea eagles Reigned Supreme and We were Devine
Since then we have remained in our Decade of Decline
In a results Driven Business we should get the Broom out and start the Clean up from the Top
An Organizations Greatest asset is the Great people the Organization Invests in
We need a New Investor because the one we have is not giving us Great returns
The Legendary Manly Club is not just about Surviving
The Legendary Manly Club is all about Thriving and Conquering
 
We Will Always Support our Legendary Manly Club .Always !
But We will never support the ones that cannot Live up to its Benchmark Premiership Winning Standards
Loyal and Passionate Manly people have a Duty of care to stand up for our Clubs Great Standards

A date that will live in infamy.
 
Why place all the blame on the owner? What about our recruitment team? Just look at our squad. The age of the players contributes to injuries and a lack of speed, which is really hurting us. Additionally, the NRL's scheduling didn't help yesterday; we looked completely exhausted. Now we have to play again on Thursday, flying back from Perth, while St George gets an extra day of rest after playing at WIN Stadium. This isn't fair.

I can't recall seeing our team this slow. At the start of the year, we were all excited about the speed in our backs. Jake needs to move to Prop, and we should consider giving players like Caleb Navale a chance instead of Sipley, Ben T, and Tevaga.

We need to give new players a chance and start planning for 2026, as 2025 seems lost already, even after just six rounds, given everything that's happened at the club recently. To say it's disappointing is an understatement!
Why place the blame? The Penn family employs them or employs the people who recruited them. The buck stops firmly with them. Pay peanuts get monkeys. The dismal decade has occurred under the Penn family's watch.
