Round 25 - Sea Eagles v Titans - Monday 1st September


We have been advised today that the Round 25 fixture against the Titans has been scheduled for Monday 1st September. As you would all be aware the club has lobbied the NRL to have this game scheduled for a Sunday afternoon but both Fox and Channel 9 have had the final say, as is their right under the terms of the broadcasting agreement.

We've asked the NRL if the game could be pushed back to a later start to allow our members and fans extra time to get to Brookvale Oval this will be confirmed at a later date.

Whilst we understand your desire to scream from the roof tops about this decision we can assure you that nothing will change the games scheduling.

I respectfully ask that our fans get behind this decision, support the club and more importantly support Beaver in his last NRL home game at Brookvale Oval.

For those that believe that the Home Final will be his last game you are only partly correct. The event itself is controlled by the NRL and our ability to acknowledge Beaver's achievements will be limited due to other demands on that day. For this reason we will continue with our plans to celebrate his career in Round 25 vs the Titans. This will ensure we can deliver a tribute that is a worthy acknowledgement of everything he has done for the Sea Eagles and the community in general.

Celebrations will include a commemorative jersey and a major announcement that will etch Steve Menzies' name into the clubs fabric for eternity … stay tuned!

For those fans who were looking to travel down for this game, we apologise for the inconvenience but rest assured Aaron Markie and Mark Tramby will work tirelessly to come up with the best possible package for our Home Final.

Thanks Always

Surely, for a bloke who has given 16 years service without a foot wrong, the game could show him a bit of respect. What a joke. How this even goes close to the 3rd best game of the round astounds me too

Fox, go and get F**ked
