He has a point !
Aussie RL is a fave of mine of Setanta.IMO Most games knock the sox of ours !
Manly chief executive is a crank who is trying to stirr things up before the WCC. Fair enough our game isn't up to NRL standard yet, but i wouldnt say second class.

That bit is a clue as to the fact we ARE second class at club and International level.

This sounds to me as if he's trying to defuse the internal split in the Manly board which is well documented in the Aussie presss, and which he is obviously afraid will upset his own team. Ignore him, and Leeds will have all our teams cheering them on to another WC victory......grannyfan Cindy

I don't think his opinion counts for anything tbh, his opinion is no more valid than someone on here.
