"Interesting that our 2 team leaders are injured atm whilst the heat is on Arthur more than any time before.
It is very interesting...
Maybe there are things going on behind the scenes that we are not privy too?
Lets hope so."

I used to verse them in the penrith comp, they're pretty bad all through the grades
I really don't think it will make much difference to Manly having this connection. The talented local juniors will want to play for Parramatta, Penrith or West Tigers u16's, u18's and u20's. There won't be many talented Blacktown juniors interested in travelling from Blacktown or further west to Manly for training and back again several days a week.
This move is only going to piss off the fringe first graded who will have a lot of travel between training and playing, particularly if they are up and down from first grade and second grade.
This move/new feeder club link is for two reasons. Firstly the Manly club (privately owned) wants to reduce the cost of running their second tier team and the money spent on their second tier players will be slashed. Secondly, Manly don't have a team in the Ron Massey Cup and don't have those extra players to draw upon when injury occurs.
As a Parra fan I wouldn't be worried.
Good for Manly but it won't affect us as a club all that much.
