  • 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.

    Octobre 2015 FINALE SUPER LEAGUE – LES RHINOS DE LEEDS TOUT PUISSANTS : Après avoir remporté la Coupe et terminé en tête de la saison régulière, les Rhinos de Leeds ont remporté le titre de Champion de Super League 22 à 20. Et pourtant, Wigan a tout essayé, en finale devant un stade d’Old Trafford à Manchester plein comme un œuf (73500 spectateurs) pour la vingtième édition. Leeds ramenait à la raison la jeunesse de Wigan qui abordait avec quelques sérieux arguments cette troisième ‘Grand Final’ consécutive pour les Warriors. Et des espoirs légitimes après le premier essai de Joe Burgess, né d’une percée de Liam Farrell (4e). Des Warriors qui croyaient avoir fait le plus dur en revenant au score à la 50e minute de jeu. Mais la machine Leeds se remettait en marche avec une partition presque parfaite ponctuée du doublé de Danny Mc Guire (7e, 35e). Mais aussi l'essai de Walters (64e), portant le score à 22 à 20 sera un véritable tournant de la partie après une passe au pied de Sir Kev parfaitement négociée par les trois-quarts de Leeds. Le capitaine Kevin Sinfield qui aura mené les Rhinos à la victoire pour la 7e fois en 8 finales pouvait ensuite aller cueillir le Trophée. Triplé inédit pour Tom Briscoe et les Rhinos.
