Nah. I will probably throw coins at you, punch you or crash tackle you while it gets recorded on webcam.

The Sea Eagles announced their latest secret weapon last night.

Michael Robertson will change his name by deedpoll to Brett Stewart tomorrow and will play the full 80 minutes wearing a cardboard cut out mask with a picture of the injured Manly player by the same name.

As such he will now score 1,000 hat tricks on "debut" and Manly will win by 8,000,000 points. In a bizarre twist the scoreboard guy will put in for a claim for repetative strain injury and Manly will go bankrupt and have to forfeit the two points to Melbourne.

:lol:

Melbourne 34-8 in the Grand Final 2007... noone cares about margins or scores, you're both even in GF's at one a-piece. Manly = 2007 Melbourne owned, Melbourne = 2008 Manly owned.

f**k your a fat idiot, It was only the biggest winning margin in grand final history artard. I think there is a difference oh did i mention it was the centenary year. f**k if the bulldogs could even get close to that you would jack off every day about it.

So does that mean Manly will be credited with one and a half wins because it was the biggest margin ever? Or will it go down as 2 wins given it was the biggest margin ever and it was in the centenary year? :sarcasm: :lol:

Manly 1, Mexicans 1. The other sh*t don't count for anything.

When calling someone else an idiot. It might be a good idea to come across in a manner other than a blithering idiot yourself.

It tends to take away from the point you're making.

Carry on.

Eagles to go biff

WHEN Manly prop Brent Kite aimed up and belted Michael Crocker in last year’s grand final replay at Brookvale Oval, it was a significant moment in the Sea Eagles run-in towards claiming the NRL title.
Melbourne won that night last August, but it was the first time Des Hasler’s men firmly believed they could beat the 2007 champions.
Two months later those feelings were vindicated when Manly thumped the Storm 40-0 to win the premiership.
The Sea Eagles will again be told to muscle up when they face their arch-rivals in what is tipped to be a spicy clash at Brookvale Oval on Friday night.
“It brings out the best in us,” Kite said of Manly’s intense rivalry with the Storm.
“We are both pretty hungry for a win.
“But a round eight victory is not going to compare to a GF.”
Not by a long shot. But another loss tonight could send the Sea Eagles season spinning out of control. With the Broncos in Brisbane looming next Sunday, Manly desperately need two premiership points tonight or face a chilly winter by the beaches.
“Both teams will use this game to get back on track, to try and kick-start something for the season,” fullback Michael Robertson said.
“We are not riding on anything that happened last year. Hopefully we can get a win and start a bit of a charge.”
A run towards the games that matter in September. Naturally the Storm won’t be easy with an abundance of game-breakers sprinkled in their talented unit.
Storm second-rower Ryan Hoffman is one of them, also keen to get one over the NRL champions.
“Grand final replays are always big and both teams are looking forward to putting in good performances because I suppose both teams have not reached their potential this year,” he explained to The Manly Daily.
“I know for us it’s going to be a good gauge on our season. It’s still early days and we are confident we can still be there at the end of the year. But, any time you are playing Manly at Brookvale it’s a big game. They are quite proud of being very hard to beat on the northern beaches. We have always had great games at Brookvale and are expecting a really tough contest again.”

effie darling, I'm afraid I'd take 8 premierships over 7 any day.

BTW, biggest Grand Final win is really still the Roosters. Under today's scoring system they'd have beaten St George 46-0 in 1975...
