Emus make life tough for Marlins

By Adam Lucius

It was never going to be easy - but it wasn't supposed to be this hard, either.

Below-strength Manly dodged a bullet in seeing off a tenacious Penrith 44-29 at Nepean Rugby Park on Saturday, relieved to take all five points after a tight scrap.

The locals may not have recorded a single competition point leading into the game but they came at the Marlins for 80 minutes and at one stage threatened to steal a shock victory.

Trailing 17-10 after 50 minutes, the Emus had a couple of close calls go against them and eventually ran out of gas - if not desire. Read more...

Colts heed coaches instructions to put away Emus

1st Grade Colts

With 8 players unavailable this game was always going to be a test of our depth!

Those players called up as well as those still in the team combined well to put Penrith away 73-nil.

Coach Jono Harvey asked the boys to run straight and directly. The boys showed courage as this wasn't always the best option if self-preservation was a consideration. Discipline had been spoken about and the players responded well to the provocation which inevitably ensued. Read more...

It's a long bus ride

"It's along bus ride to Penrith,” commented prop and MMMs captain, Tim Fairbrother. A total contrast to last weekend’s heroics in front of a massive crowd at Manly Oval.

"We all enjoyed the atmosphere and credit to the Rats for coming back at us in the second half," said Tim about the MMMs 42-24 bonus point win against the old foe. "In the last few games we've been well in front and just not closed out as we should."

Marlins exterminate Rats before big derby crowd

By Adam Lucius

ARU boss Bill Pulver walked out of Manly Oval on Saturday night convinced club rugby was alive and kicking - and so is the Marlins' premiership campaign after seeing off Warringah 42-24 in a spirited local derby

The hosts led from start to finish and always appeared to have the Rats' measure, although there were some tense moments as the northerners kept coming midway through the second half.

Manly have dominated the local derby in recent years, although this wasn't quite the decapitation suggested by the (fake) rat's head hanging from a pole next to Marlins Army HQ on the north-west hill. Read more...
