The Manly Sea Eagles were founded in 1947 and have played at Brookvale Oval since their inception. The Sea Eagles were at the peak of their powers during the 1970’s where they won four Premierships out of the seven they have achieved so far in their history. Manly’s 40-0 Grand Final triumph over the Storm in 2008 is now the biggest victory margin achieved by any Australian Rugby League team in a Premiership decider.

Manly coach slams NRL rule changes
by Joe Barton, 22 May 2013
Angry Manly coach Geoff Toovey savaged the NRL over “ridiculous, knee-jerk” decision-making on Wednesday, following mid-season rule changes intended to speed up games. The NRL’s Competition Committee announced on Tuesday that from round 15 this season they were introducing a 30-second time limit for scrums to be packed, while also reducing the time limit for [...]
Manly call for NRL extra-time rethink
by James MacSmith, 22 May 2013
Manly have renewed calls for a rethink of the NRL’s contentious extra-time policy after Monday’s 10-10 draw with Melbourne. The golden-point period of Monday’s match again degenerated into a series of field goal attempts with neither side coming close to scoring a try in the 10-minute overtime period. Initially promoted as a worthy way to [...]
Time for the NRL to introduce silver point
by Brendan Bradford, 21 May 2013
After the Storm and Sea Eagles played out a 10-all draw at AAMI Park in Melbourne on Monday night, Glenn Stewart and Cam Smith said it was probably a fair result. So did Nathan Hindmarsh on the Matty Johns show afterwards. They’re all wrong. Such a great spectacle deserves a winner and the old saying [...]
NRL golden point must get the flick
by Curtis Woodward, 21 May 2013
A famous rivalry added another chapter on Monday night as the Melbourne Storm and the Manly-Warringah Sea Eagles battled to a 10-all draw at AAMI Park. The Storm headed into half-time down by eight points and staring down the barrel of three losses on the trot. Craig Bellamy’s men were struggling and would need to [...]

Is Souths the only real title contender?
by Luke Doherty, 14 May 2013
After nine rounds of the NRL the top eight is a rabble, with only South Sydney showing signs of being a true premiership contender. With second place on the ladder up for grabs, due to Melbourne’s recent slump, the Roosters and Manly battered each other to standstill at Brookvale Oval last night. But for all [...]

Hatred runs deep in the NRL
by Ryan O'Connell, 30 Apr 2013 ![]()
Watching the game of the year so far on Friday night, as the South Sydney Rabbitohs and Manly Sea Eagles battled it out at Brookvale Oval, it dawned on me just how much hatred plays an integral part in the success of rugby league. Every NRL fan wants their team to do well, but they [...]
Why don’t we replace send offs?
by Dan Vella, 29 Apr 2013
Souths vs Manly last Friday was as bruising and intense a battle as you will have seen in a regular season fixture. There was an extraordinary atmosphere at the ground, a near capacity crowd of real league people, Manly fans baying for blood, the burrow in full flight and two teams made up of some [...]
Ms Bluetongue’s many suitors should shove off for Manly
by Chris Chard, 29 Apr 2013
Recent talk of the state of Brookvale Oval and the willingness for NSW’s Bluetongue Stadium to home an NRL side have led to punters to deduce it makes sense for the Sea Eagles to migrate north for the winter. Unfortunately, in this case the equation reads 2+2=5 as, due to a range of early 2000s [...]

Please Dave, leave the golden point alone
by Greg Prichard, 24 May 2013
The problem with golden point extra time (GPET) isn’t the concept itself – it’s the attitude of the teams and the coaches. Why is there such an accent on attempting to kick field goals to break deadlocks, particularly when a large percentage of the shots are taken from either impossible positions or under too much [...]
Hot Roosters await Storm in a teacup
by Curtis Woodward, 24 May 2013
They are the reigning and defending National Rugby League champions. They’re the Melbourne Storm and they deserve our respect. But after shock losses to the Canberra Raiders and Penrith Panthers, Melbourne have officially hit one of those eventual flat spots most experts predicted. Their torturous start to 2013 has finally caught up to them. For [...]
WIZ: My exclusive interview with Laurie Daley
by Gary Freeman, 24 May 2013
I was lucky enough to get an exclusive chat with Blues coach Laurie Daley this week and I’ve got some interesting stuff to deliver after our fascinating talk.

Are the Tigers in danger of losing the Leichhardt faithful?
by Luke Doherty, 24 May 2013
Rugby league clubs are constantly accused of massaging crowd figures to suit their own purpose. Sometimes you’re left to wonder just how many people are in the bathroom or lining up for a beer and a drink because you swear you can’t see that many in the stands. So it says a lot when an [...]
Broncos halves dramas continue
by Jacob Kratzmann, 24 May 2013
The poor start for the Brisbane Broncos this year was for many quite unexpected. So too was the signing of veteran halfback Scott Prince only weeks before the season began. Prince is a premiership-winning, quality halfback. But was buying Prince the best idea, especially when the team should be looking into the future? Prince is [...]
Potter wants Benji to be a Tiger for life
by Joe Barton, 24 May 2013
Wests Tigers coach Mick Potter won’t back down from his decision to bench No.1 playmaker Benji Marshall – but says he hopes he never has to do it again and wants the under-pressure star to be a Tiger for life. Potter still doesn’t feel comfortable revealing the reasons behind starting last week’s calamitous defeat to [...]
No attitude problem towards women: NRL
by James MacSmith, 24 May 2013
The NRL is adamant rugby league does not have an attitude problem towards women and that a thorough and transparent investigation of the Ben Te’o incident will go a way to eliminating those perceptions. A Brisbane woman has said she was left bleeding and abandoned with a fractured eye socket from an alleged assault by [...]
