Pre-Game Bulldogs v Manly [Round 25, 2022]

Why KDL?
Somehow he always represents to me how far we have fallen.

He reminds me of Barny Rubble.

 

[wombatgc]

Trevor will come good this week, don't you worry.

How good would it be to see Trevor score a try, and for his try celebration…this

 

[qldeagle]

Yes. We need to win this game, I hope Des remembers to tell the players.

I'm more interested in tonight's game to be perfectly honest.

 

[lsz]

I wish Des went with full changes

Why he is starting Andrew D as he is leaving I have no idea - push James up there
Why he is putting D walks there I have no idea...give young Gordon a shot off the bench
And fit in Zac F somehow as really what difference does it make now?

 

[lillchip]

Why are Aloiai and Harper out if not injured?

 

[ALinda]

Why are Aloiai and Harper out if not injured?

Harper presumably still has shoulder injury like last week.

As per Aloiai thread, personal leave due to family member dying.

 

[Ryan]

Brad Parker out from a broken heart after reading forum fans bagging out rangas earlier today.

Roumanous in with Kurt De Luis from our blistering Blacktown team who's forward dominated the opposition this year.

 

[JBW]

I suspect Dogs fans will be happy this time tomorrow.

I really don't like to be pessimistic, but...

Imo you've answered your own questions. Des is playing Walker and Davey, just as Foz and Marty are, because this is their last game in Manly colours and for our season. Sitting them on the sidelines would be unreasonable and for sentimentality I say why not.

Honestly could we beat the tigers if we were playing them this week I doubt it.I can’t see us winning this game guys.

If he does , and this is what he celebrates it with we will know for sure the players read Silvertails.

In honesty Dogs' recent form has been no better than ours. They jagged a win about a month back against the Knights but that was the ass end of their bright patch and they have subsequently cratered just like us. If we manage to turn up in the right mood it could well be us putting 30 on them. Wish it was our home game.

Well, that's the worst ever losing streak equalled in our clubs 75 years. BUT, I guess it's nothing to see here.

 

[The Eagle Has Landed]

The way we have been defending or lack of it the past month. The Dogs will flog us.

Absolutely, 30 plus

I can’t move beyond those pics of him sucking on a ciggie outside court!

Same here. Honestly who gives a s$&@ if we lose. We are finishing 11 win lose or draw. Give the kids a run.

Absolute plodder. Reserve for reserve grade in a decent Manly setup.

I don’t get why we don’t give Fulton a run over him considering we havnt signed kdl up for next year.
