The following articles indicate some major issues at Manly that could prove fatal - aside from Brett Stewart's incident.
The first article strongly suggests that the $100,000 fine cannot be comfortably handled by Manly - which raises significant questions about their solvency.
The second indicates strongly that Max Delmege wants out - he is no longer interested in funding Manly any more. Add this to the feud over the Leagues Club property with Penn - and you have massive internal problems - directly affecting their financial status in the short and medium term.
The third proves that some at a high level at Manly are still eyeing off the Central Coast - and have even registered Central Coast Eagles in preparation.
The fourth article concerns allegations of racism against Manly during the World Cup Challenge.
All in all, Manly are imploding - and, with questionable financial capacity, there are massive troubles ahead.
Ian Schubert, fancy a day trip to the Northern beaches?

Quote - "The good news is now I don't have to put in any more money, which is great after seven years," Delmege said. "Including sponsorship money and share money and loans, (my investment) would probably total somewhere between $13 and $14 million.
"That can be verified, but who cares? I think it's a good time to put in your last bit of money when you have won everything."

MANLY-WARRINGAH Rugby League Football Club has grave concerns that members of the Sea Eagles board still harbour ambitions to move the club to the Central Coast.
In a letter addressed to football club members, chairman Bob Reilly has openly questioned the Sea Eagles commitment to Brookvale Oval.
The one-page letter also highlights attempts to register the trademark Central Coast Sea Eagles without the Sea Eagles boards approval.
