Zorba would be a punchie no doubt
Now that Zorba is just another punter, and that his opinions can no longer be attributed to a "Manly Official" he is fully entitled to be a Punchie, Numb-nut, Dribbler, Salad Dodger, God Botherer, Sausage roll eater, Cheese maker or any other type of social and intellectual misfit already represented in numbers on this forum ..... as long as he doesn't grow a mullet, speak a Germanic language or post selfies I'll accomodate him and his opinion ... ...

If Des is appointed coach, while he may have to ride it for a year due to the salary cap penalty, I smell a BIG cleanout at the end of 2019.....and it might not just be some of the fringe players

That's Mark from somewhere up north.
Watch him too. He's the leader of the PPYC or some rubbish. They are a secret society who prance around in the nuddy at their meetings".

Anyone who spilled blood for the Sea Eagles and helped win a premiership, deserves respect in my mind. Zorba has done and said some silly things over the years, but who hasn't and we all know where his heart lies. He's family as far as I'm concerned. As for Hasler, I always felt the criticism laid on him for leaving Manly was a bit rich, considering he had coached two Sea Eagle sides to premiership. These days loyalty generally only applies when the money is right or you have no where else to go. Like Foran, he had a right to choose to seek the money. Its not the 60s when you were paid pocket money, to booster your main job during the week. Its a business and players and coaches would be naïve to not go where the money is offered if the club you might love is paying you half that much. So if Hasler comes back, great. Foran, though, I think is past his best, and was actually at his peak 7 years ago. Been down hill since then.
Putting things in perspective very well feathered friend .
We will agree to agree

That’s a bit harsh HE. I would have thought kilt wearing, whiskey guzzling, disagreeable hillbilly would have been more appropriate. Love ya Woodsie
