2011 Football Club Chairman’S Report MANLY-WARRINGAH RUGBY LEAGUE FOOTBALL CLUB LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2011 FOOTBALL CLUB CHAIRMAN’S REPORT Premiers. That is all that needs to be said to sum up a magnificent 2011 season. Congratulations to Co-Captains Jamie Lyon and Jason King and all the players and to Des Hasler and all the coaching and support staff. Congratulations also to David Perry and the office staff at Narrabeen for all the behinds the scenes work they do that make it possible for the Football department to be successful. Congratulations and thank you also to the Board of the Sea Eagles, and our co-owners in the Sea Eagles, the Penn family and Quantum, without whom this premiership could not have been achieved. Your Club, the mighty Manly-Warringah Sea Eagles once again stamped itself as the best Rugby League Club in Australia, not only winning its second NRL Premiership in only 4 years, but by becoming the only Club to have won at least 1 Premiership in each of the last 5 decades. Such a long tradition of success is testament to the strength and character of our great Club and our relentless drive for success. Superstar players, even Immortals, have come and gone. Coaches have come and gone. Administrators and Board Members have come and gone, but what always remains is the Manly- Warringah Sea Eagles Club, something much greater than the sum of the individual parts. So we look forward to 2012, with local junior, Life Member and Club legend, Geoff Toovey leading the charge towards another milestone, the first back to back premierships since 1992-93. In 2011, Football Club membership more than doubled and for that I would like to thank each and every Manly fan who chose to make the commitment to become a part of this great Club as a Member. I would also like to thank departed CEO, Graham Lowe, for his support of Football Club Membership and for allowing it to be promoted in conjunction with the Sea Eagles’ own membership program. I would also like to thank all the staff at Manly Leagues Club, particularly Peter, Karen, Kim and Teresa, for all their hard work in administering the Football Club membership program in 2011. Thank you to fellow Director, Peter Bryant, for his tremendous commitment, not just to the Football Club, but on the Leagues Club Board as well and thank you to Co-Patron, Kerry Sibraa and Director, Philip Dean for their unceasing efforts to see Brookvale Oval upgraded into a facility befitting your Premiership team. Thanks also to Directors Bob Stevenson and Chris Jones for their work in keeping the Football Club Board in touch with the members and the ever growing band of “Travelling Supportahs” that provide magnificent support to the team at venues all over the country (and the world). A special thank you to Melinda Gainsford-Taylor for all that she has done for both the Football Club and the Sea Eagles as a Football Club appointee to the Board of the Sea Eagles over the last 3 years. With 2012 being an Olympic year, Melinda is unable to continue in her role as a Sea Eagles Director. Fortunately, Darrell Williams, a member of Manly’s 1987 premiership winning side, former Kiwi international and Football Club Member, is ready to take up the challenge. I am sure he will ably represent the interests of the Football Club and also add significant value to the Sea Eagles with his Rugby League knowledge and experience. Finally, I would like to thank outgoing Football Club Directors, Damian Smith and Cliff Lyons, for their outstanding contributions to the Football Club during their time on the Board and I welcome incoming Football Club Directors, Rory Muscat and Peter Peters. On behalf of the Board, I urge all Football Club Members to get behind Geoff Toovey and the boys as they seek to go back to back in 2012.

It was our 3rd Grand Final appearance in 5 seasons and our 2nd Premiership in 4 years. With the NRL competition as close as it has ever been, our recent record is one that all involved should reflect upon with great pride. When I commenced with the Sea Eagles on the 14th of June 2011, I knew it was an extreme privilege and honour to be given the opportunity to make a positive difference to this historic and famous Club. One thing I had been told about and that stood out early for me, was the strong bond in the playing group. It was then no surprise to see that playing group come together and combine Naming Rights Sponsor their fabulous talent with the hard work and commitment necessary to deliver victory against the Warriors in the 2011 Grand Final. With the challenging economic climate and competition for the entertainment and sponsorship dollar, all NRL Clubs are facing financial challenges. 15 of the 16 NRL Clubs made financial losses in season 2011 and it is no secret that our Club was one of them. With that we have needed to review our entire business model to ensure the long-term financial stability of this great Club. We have made some important changes to our day-to-day operations and I believe we are making strong progress in reducing the Sleeve Sponsor Upper Rear of Jersey Sponsor Lower Rear of Jersey Sponsor significant losses from last year. Forecasts show the Club will go close to a break-even position at the end of 2012. Some of the key areas we are focusing on that are critical to our business plan are our membership, sponsorship and digital online programs. We need to deliver a more tailored and customer-specific service in all areas and we believe we’re headed in the right direction. Shorts Sponsor Apparel Sponsor Our Community Program is also evolving with more resources invested into our charity partners, particularly our successful Sea Eagles Reads initiative. This program won the NRL Community Program of the Year in 2011 and we are now expanding it online. This will give more remote schools an opportunity to engage with our players and provide a unique learning experience for students. During this transitional period, staff support and development, increased focus on appropriate skill sets and genuine hard work are all critical components to our long-term goals. With the passion and dedication our staff have for our Club, we believe we can 2011 SPONSORS & PARTNERS deliver the required positive financial outcomes to ensure long term success both on and off the field.

  • 2012 Football Club Chairman’S Report
    MANLY-WARRINGAH RUGBY LEAGUE FOOTBALL CLUB LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2012 FOOTBALL CLUB CHAIRMAN’S REPORT Going back to back in the NRL competition has proven too big a task for the defending Premiers each year since 1992, but I can proudly say that in 2012, Geoff Toovey and the boys gave it a red hot go. Despite a host of difficulties, including pre-season disruptions, travelling to the UK for the World Club Challenge, injuries, suspensions and off field distractions, the team, led by Co-Captains Jamie Lyon and Jason King, rallied together magnificently to finish in the Top 4, falling only one game short of another Grand Final appearance after defeat by eventual 2012 Premiers, the Melbourne Storm. Whilst we may not have achieved our ultimate goal of successfully defending our 2011 title, we should not lose sight of just how difficult it is to remain near the top of the NRL competition each year. Accordingly, we should all be extremely proud of what was still a very successful 2012 season for the Manly-Warringah Sea Eagles. In his first year as Head Coach, Geoff Toovey did a fantastic job despite a less than ideal preparation and I am sure he is itching to get into 2013, knowing the experience of his first year under his belt will stand him in good stead for the challenges that lie ahead. With the nucleus of the side being retained long term, particularly our young halves, Keiran Foran and Daly Cherry-Evans, we can all be justifiably confident that a 9th premiership is well within our reach in coming seasons.

    THE ACTION KICKS OFF THIS SATURDAY NIGHT Sir Peter Leitch Club Newsletter RLWC 2017 24th October 2017 It’s 4 days until the Kiwis play # their first game of the 2017 RLWC 193 Back The Kiwis By Enjoying Lunch By David Kemeys Former Sunday Star-Times Editor, Former Editor-in-Chief Suburban Newspapers, Long Suffering Warriors Fan E ARE only days from the kick-off of the 2017 Rugby League World Cup, with Australia and England W– in what will be a hell of a match - doing the honours on Friday night. Of course the Kiwis take on Samoa on Saturday night at Mt Smart, and that one should be a good game too. League legend Olsen Filipaina is taking the ball out, which is pretty cool given he has represented the Kiwis and Samoa. The game I am looking forward to is the Kiwis v Tonga in Hamilton, because there is not going to be a lot of love lost when those two sides meet, after everything that has gone on. Before a ball is kicked I have the Kiwis lunch at the Ellerslie Events Centre to look forward to on Friday. When Pete asked if I would take it on with Gordon Gibbons and Tony Feasey, I foolishly said yes, not want- ing to let Pete down. But in truth Gordon has been amazing and we have an incredible line-up of Kiwis greats taking to the stage, and players with a long history of World Cup and test glory in attendance. I have been to several of Peter’s Kiwis lunches and enjoyed every one of them.

  • 2017 Season Review
    2017 Season Review Paul Hampton For the first time in Castleford’s 91 year history as a senior club they finished at the top of the table. After the regular season of 23 games the twelve team league split into the Super 8s at the top, with the bottom four joining with the Championship top four in the Qualifiers to determine promotion and relegation. Castleford finished the regular season at the top, ten points clear and maintained the lead to the end of the season. They were so far in front that the shield was awarded to them after only three games of the seven game series as they could not be caught.
