manly second grade team

[murraymob]

will manly be feilding a second grade team next year.I know they have pulled out of the NSW cup and there was talk of joining the QLD cup .What is the latest on where they will play

At this stage, it's confirmed that they'll be sending 6-8 players a week up to QLD to play for the Sunshine Coast Sea Eagles in the QLD Cup. It's unlikely they will field a NSW Cup team, unless they can somehow conjure up an agreement with Belrose or something. If they can't, then I presume the numbers heading north for the QLD Cup will increase.

Hope that helps!

They are definitely not having a Reserve Grade and the agreement with the Sunshine Coast is that all fit and unrequired NRL players will play Qld Cup with the Sunny Coast. Manly have spent $millions on the joint venture. They are seriously committed to make this affiliation work. They see it as being vital for the long term survival of the club.

On NRL News, Steve Mascord stated that the new Sunshine Coast club with the underbacking from Manly, would seek for its own NRL license. http://bigpondvideo.com/NRL/79146

It's our plan B. If we can't make a long term go of it in Sydney we'll end up on the Sunny Coast. Hopefully we can win the next two premierships and not have to worry about that for a couple of decades.

Interesting backup plan incase Scott Penn and Delmege run.

I think the point is that Penn/Delmege are well involved in the Sunshine Coast deals.....if the Sunshine Coast are involved in the NRL in the near future, Penn/Delmege won't be far from the action.

Is a sad time that it now seems that the turn up early and watch 3 games from the hill is no more. Was a great day out
