In other breaking news we are playing Manly round 1 now and not the Broncos.

Foran's first hit-out in Eels colours will be in a trial against Penrith on Saturday, before leading the team out against his former Manly team-mates in round one.

Best kiwi captain since Gary Freeman.

you didn't like Cayless?

 

[Basil Brush]

lol um...

the resident f**kwit from the other site posted as a blog just for a shit stir and a few have taken the bait...other than that, im not aware of any protest arranged nor do I think anyone would be that silly.

It might be a protest with 5 people at most.

Seriously Tim is a lovely guy, and I am glad he has kept a leadership role in the club but people who think he should be captain over Foran (an international captain) are dreaming.

 

[BoneyBlake17]

Is there a protest organised, with peeps attempting to get mannah reinstated as captain?

Its a gee up buddy. The person who wrote the blog can't stand mannah

Best result for all. Tim is a nice guy and still somebody that is great fronting the media and being a very likeable person that you would representing your club.

However having Foran as onfield captain will make sure no one will slack off. Sometimes i feel mannah may not be able to motivate the team and be a hardarse when required.

Don't think I've seen a person disputing the decision... And I don't think Tim himself would be disputing to but the imbecile who created the blog as a shit stir has hammered mannah for a while even questioning his toughness, forget about the fact that he's played well over 150 FG games or even played origin for a moment, he turned up to training a day after he buried his brother... That my friend is the epitome of toughness.

I do have nothing but respect for Tim, especially with what he went through with his brother.

Ken Oaff, brother.

I didn't expect Timmy to play after Johnny's passing, but he kept turning up and giving 100%.

I have huge respect for Tim Mannah, and I am very proud to count him as an Eel.

 

[The Phelan Folly]

Yup. Timmy Mannah is just fine by me.

 

[phantom eel]

Hopefully Beau Scott's presence will inspire the whole forward pack (including Mannah) onto some better and more consistent achievements this year too.

We've done well recruiting some rep-level experience this off-season: Foran for the halves/spine, Jennings for the backs, Scott for the forwards. And credit where it's due - Jarryd Hayne, William Hopoate and Chris Sandow made this all possible .

 

[Stagger eel]

Yeah, it's a balance we haven't had for a long long time...

 

[hineyrulz]

Mannah had his best year last year since about 2010.
