100% agree with you re Dogs, Broncos, Roosters etc.
However, that's not the point here. There was an allegation against the Eagles, scurrilous or not. Manly challenged the nrl to come inspect them. They claim nothing to hide and no wrong doing. They wanted to clear their name and protect their brand.
Now, co-operation is limited. Why?? SEEMS as if they do have something to hide. As I've said before, I'm sure they didn't think the investigation would be as thorough. Best play for them would be to get it over with.
