Actually I have commented in the past that Overweight Moron is definitely no moron. He makes some very insightful posts.

Unfortunately in this case his judgement is clouded either by his love for Manly or his hatred of the Eels.

As for his weight, that's probably more to do with his attitude and self discipline. There's really little correlation between bodyweight and intelligence.

Plus it could be glandular. lol

LMAO at Manly fruitcakes suddenly sh*tty that they lost a young player - who wont play for anyone for 2.5 years yet.

The overwhelming joy at winning a premiership lasted one day. Now you are being miserable twats again. Love it!
Good luck to Hoppa - he gave us a premiership and so did the Lyon king.....thats the best purchase Manly have ever made - gee it must have hurt parra fans seeing him lift that trophy as captain on Sunday....
Not at all. I was cheering for him.

You mean junior talent like the guy you just signed for $850k a year? Or the two 16 or 17's year olds you just signed for massive deals (Joey Lussick and Jamil).

Manly could've offered more to Hoppa if the squad was as devoid of talent like Parra's is. Good on the guy, good coin for less work. 3 less games a year.

Don't cheer too loudly when Lussick's playing for NSW.
Funny - I dont recall how vocal you were against Manly when they plundered everything in our junior district.

Manly could have offered Hoppa more if the club wasnt on the verge of going broke. Lets see you retain Foran, DCE, the Stewart brothers, Ballin and Watmough until their retirement. If Manly lasts that long.

It's ok for Manly to throw the money at everyone and plunder, but when one young player and his brother decide their future lies elsewhere.......look out.

Maybe cleanskinned young Hoppa fears another season launch. He knows that a Manly season launch would make Tommy Lee's bucks night look like a CWA cake stall.

Anyway, in 2013 Hasler will be at Belmore with Foran and Watmough, DCE will be wondering how to get back in first grade after second season syndrome, and Penn will be in the middle of negotiations to move them to Perth to avoid going bankrupt.

I must say I don't see the big deal. Players come and go, yes Hoppa is going to be a star but you cannot keep them all. I was disappointed when I read the news but was over it 5 minutes later. After all it is only a game.

Manly has been "going broke" for 10 years now, yet have made three grandfinals and won two of them...

Eels have done diddly-squat.

Kept afloat. Kept our best players out of court. Didnt continue a bitchfight with the CEO of the NRL.

Anyway, only a Manly fan could make a link between club wealth and premierships. Arko's days left a big impression, didnt they!

Eels can't make any link with premierships, they would have to win one in the modern era first.

Is that all you have? You forgetting 09? We got robbed by cheats too, just like you.

Anyway, if Manly is so god, why are you whinging about missing a young player in 3 years time?

850k a year....bwahahahahahahahaha....keep him.
OK. You keep believing Weidler. :lol:

Yes. 2009 you didn't win.

I don't believe Weilder at all. The contract is with Hoppa and the Eels, so I don't trust any info on the salary at all.

Good on you for getting Hoppa. He's a damn good player and will take of in 2014 where he left of, and only 21!

Please direct me to where I've been vocal against Parra signing Manly players?

I'm not one of the gimps who hates a side because they signed players from other clubs over 30 years ago.

How awful will it be for you haters when the Eels rise again?

I can taste your fear. It sustains me.

theres no fear here - look hoppa is a great buy, anyone who disputes that is silly so good luck when he finally plays for you.

The problem is this this Parra dont know how to win - and comps arent always won by the best team its all about changing your club culture and having the right blend - parra have neither and are about 3 years away i think to getting even close.

The dogs who like us know how to dig deep are behind you guys in terms of player quality and will still win another before parra will.

Meh!
Good on him for looking after himself and his family on his return, Manly has an abundance of talent at the moment and could possibly win another title before he even pulls on a parra jumper.....

Hoppa is a great talent, but Parramatta need a whole lot more than a couple of good backs.

The Weidler comment was for Woody.

Bitter much.... Geez
Manly hasn't been active in the player market for years now, just developing great youth talents into stars.
Dessie will announce a long term deal with the eagle's very soon ;-)
And financially, we look like we squared books after the premiership win.
So your little rant seems to add up to Zero!!!!

How am I bitter at being happy we signed someone you gimp? All the whinging has come from Manly supporters.

I still think it's funny that, not even a week after you win the holy graille, a future move by a young player to a rival has you lot back in your bomb shelter being paranoid about what everyone thinks of you again. :lol:

Still enjoying the winning haze myself, as I said before good on him for the move, not really fazed about it at all.
And the bitter statment come in line with you little rant about manly going broke and coaches and players leaving, blah blah blah.
