I was thinking just that. All the good work has been undone. Now all the commentary is focused on who is sin binned. Going back 4-5 tackles to penalise for some minor contact. 13 on 11 has crippled the spectacle completely. All the wonderful work that sped the game up and made it a game we've been crying out for, for years. Then they ruin their own product. I get they don't want head contact but talk about cutting off your nose to spite your face. Just dumb.
To be honest, we need someone full time in that role. We can't have him going off fighting the ABC over defamation cases for Racing NSW when his head should be in the NRL. What's Abdo doing anyway? V'Landys butler?
"A few years ago there wasn't many coaching options but there's a few out there now. As a starter - Brian Smith to Head of Football.
Potential coaching options in no order:

"At least this blog was able to be resurrected, as for you floppa, don't let the door hit you on the way out, and please take that imbecile of a General Manager you wax-lyrical ad nauseam!!"
"In all due respect Cranky Brad, Meninga is not the answer he's not smart for me. If / when BA does go the Head of Football goes too and a clean out retention / junior development and the lot. We as a club have made too many errors in relation to…"
"He was excellent. The problem was he had Lane beside him in defence who did fuck all to protect him all game. Just stood there in some defensive efforts"

Make that 7-1 and 5 reported players. Ennis is a dickhead by the way.
It's a joke Mick. In the real world both of those incidents only warranted a penalty.

Nah! its cutting the head off to preserve the neck, just need to add a big pickling jar.
What do you call this kinda soup Slugg?

It's Shane Hayne out there. Shades of Parra vs Cronulla in 2003. We'll I hope the NRL are happy. They made this farce.
And the commentators are praising Manly like they are world beaters who are beating a full strength top two squad with a full complement on the field.
The NRL has become an absolute joke and V'Landys is to blame. He is the worst thing to happen to the game since the Super League war.
They'll fancy themselves next week against an under strength Parra side.
Let's hope we don't under estimate them like we did in round 11 last year.
