Put a line through the Dolphins ladies and gentlemen. Their title hopes are over. No team has won the premiership after conceding 50 in a game. #NRLDolphinsManly

Breaking my twitter ban to share this from @glover_benny The Seibold era has an unmitigated disaster. At best it aspired to mediocrity, a level which seems a mile off right now. The end is here. A coaching change simply has to happen immediately. nine.com.au/sport/nrl/news-2…

Holding off for any reason - including any sunk cost fallacy gibberish - will only inflict more pain on the manly club. Recruitment and retention for the past four years has been among the worst in the league. This team has no identity. And only major change can fix it.

Twitter has sucked for a long, long time - I don’t think I know anyone who would disagree with that. Bots, trolls and many other things ruined it. But hopefully sports media has found a new home - one that looks like this place used to (10 years ago). dlvr.it/TGB6bK

Signed off today from @codesportsau - it was a privilege to launch it alongside the great @AlexBrown77 and many other wonderful people. Headed back to @FOXSportsAUS - a place close to my heart. Excited to rip in.

A tribute to the late, great sporting columnist Mike Colman who has lost his brave, lengthy battle after a typically spirited fight. Mike was truly one of a kind, the last of great larrikin columnists who could make readers laugh or cry in the same week. couriermail.com.au/sport/far…

That's as gutsy as it gets from Manly. First team to come from behind and win a game this year after losing a back in the first half. And they did it with zero fit players on the bench, as a team who has given up plenty of leads this year. #NRLManlyDragons

Why aren't there more past stars involved with football in Australia? @RobbieSlater17 believes it's because some with the power see those who have had success as a threat. SAVING FOOTBALL PART II | bit.ly/3QWMVrN

It would be cool if monetary fines that players cop during games goes straight to your Juniour club to help kids and parents with fees for the year or equipment for them. Even a charity of your choice. 🤙🏽 Thoughts?

The NRL/clubs/media should send this dogpile of a website a cease and desist due to the fake quotes and info it’s attributing to players and coaches.
