Why Manly?

[CoreyWaddellSuperFan]

As I've watched a whole bunch of up and comers sign for other clubs this season and now with our great white hope Gillett seemingly extending with Brisbane, I wondered what on earth would be appealing for a player to come to Manly.

I'm at a bit of a loss. The traditional reasons:

A winning culture
A coach who could further a career
A fortress for a home ground
The chance to play with X player
A great fitness regime
Good facilities
A chance to be a part of an exciting young team
The beaches lifestyle
Money
We're not Newcastle

Apart from the last three, I'm at a bit of a loss.
Come on Silvertails, cheer me up and tell me why!

We've won a grand final in every decade for the last 5 decades.

After the last 5 years of internal disruption and infighting, I guess we are on the nose again. Des took us back to the top, and the Penns have managed to demolish it in 5 years....Simples

We have Zorba the caterer who's big on the helpings...

Our training facilities are the prettiest in the League - and not far from the beach.
