Anyone that's upset by the buying policy at the Tigers is being a little unrealistic. Given that the club has limited resources, the signings we've made are pretty astute. Here we have a junior Kiwi international. Chee Kam is a junior Australian international. Joel Edwards is one of those...

I couldn't disagree more with the need for 'something big to happen'. If anything- this club, as a whole, needs a couple of quiet months to get out of the spotlight. Sacking the board or the coach is EXACTLY what the media would be looking for.

That's absolutely right. Using leaked info from Tallis as a guide while bagging Robbie for the same thing is playing the game by tainted rules. Tallis was a knob for taking what Robbie said & releasing it to the public. And like you say- the board made the decision to not renew Potter's...

This is the exact type of reaction from the "holier than thou" posters on here that I think a few on here have come to expect. I don't care if you agree or not, to be honest. Your opinion counts for nothing to me. But I don't go out of your way to belittle anything you post. These threads...

The way Matt Ballin has dealt with being told he is no longer required at Manly is almost the polar opposite of the way Robbie Farah has dealt with the same situation. Obviously Farah is he incumbent starting #9 for the Tigers, while Ballin missed last season- but other than that, the...

Again, people hear what they want to hear. I'm starting to find it a bit amazing that some in here seem to want JT to come out & say "I hate Robbie Farah & he has zero chance of playing 1st Grade this season", as if they need to hear the words from him to get some kind of confirmation. Yes...

Again, like Blair, Ryan O'Hara came to the club with some kind of reputation too. And Whatuira. And Jamaal Lolesi.

To be fair, Adam Blair was a marquee signing, regardless of his level of play when here. And this club has been well acknowledged for bringing the young players through the ranks. It's not like the club has had to sign marquee players to fill it's roster. The club has always decided, since...

People in here hear what they want. Only Manly fans saw Ballin tell Fox Sports he'd signed for 2 years?? If Ballin has told Fox Sports he's signed, then we'd have seen it. Don't be ridiculous. Manly fans are probably talking out of their bum like most on here are. We buy speculation as fact...

Whoopee do. If Taupau is the difference between Manly making the 8 & winning the comp, then I'm no judge. Just like I don't believe he's the difference between last place & the top 8 for the Tigers. If the Ballin signing is correct, he does provide that no-nonsense approach this club needs. A...

Ivan Cleary, the Panthers & Phil Gould tried to help the Tigers out by making a media story come to life, but unfortunately Matt Lodge was able to bring the press back our way. If nothing else, our guys are good for newspaper time..

I'm not sure the Tigers would be 'wise' spending on players with little to prove, like Mason. You want this team to be hungry to play, and play aggressively, not cash in on one final pay cheque… I'd be looking at guys that are bench players at other clubs, or stuck in the 2nd's behind...

And the thread has descended into who posts the most in here or not.. Whoopee do if someone posts 13%, or if someone calls you out for it, or if the figures are wrong, or right… or whatever. Perhaps the next stat should be % total of posts some people have written directed at other posters...

Wait- I'm confused… Is sacking all last season's assistants a sign that Taylor is losing the plot, or Farah is winning a power struggle? I can't keep up... I can't see a problem with any of the appointments there. However, if you CAN find an issue in hiring a former Head Coach, who also has...

The ridiculous rumours about this club are becoming embarrassing. If Farah could ever indeed hold so much power, the whole Rugby League world would finally realise that he is indeed, truly the problem..

I thought the Tigers had quite a few 'free to air' games. I could be wrong, but games played on Foxtel or free-to-air make zero difference to the coffers from my understanding. The clubs get their share of TV revenue, I don't think it's based on who gets to play Sunday on Channel 9 more often.

Gould, Sterling & Johns were not employed by the Tigers at any point during the season either. It's poor form. We happily get stuck into Kimmorley for his comments in the media, Head's were no better. The club needs to remove these types of people & get a solid ship sailing in one direction.

Funny, Rothfield made an issue of Go's gender by bringing it up. If he actually had no issue with it, he shouldn't have ever mentioned that 'it would be the same even if Go was a man' or whatever dribble he came up with. The Press are simply trying to create stories. The Tigers desperately...

Matt Head no longer coaches for the Tigers does he? Not surprised if you openly critisise the development of players in the club. Very unprofessional. This is the EXACT type of 'culture' that this club needs to distance itself from. Did we hear the Penrith or Manly lower grade coaches having...

Not sure if you can use more TV games as a reason to play 'exciting football' as all games are shown on TV now…
