17 Heroes

They all stood up
Personally AFB and Kapow were crazy in the middle, DCE was a True leader....but you can add Parker and Elliott today....no knocking the boys at all - pure guts - great team victory!

 

[Snake]

That's the most "Manly" win since we beat Souths in the 2013 prelim.

 

[Snake]

AFB is fast becoming the best prop in the game.

 

[manlyfan76]

F**K i love beating souffs.

 

[maxta]

AFB is fast becoming the best prop in the game.

Without being 1 eyed - is slready there imo
Des called his potential early to be the best - he has just got there quicker than expected

AFB is fast becoming the best prop in the game.

He just keeps rolling forward doesn't he. Hard to put on the grd

 

[torana355]

I don't give a **** what anyone says, we look 100x better especially in defence under Hasler, the spirit in defence was awesome today!

 

[bob dylan]

He just keeps rolling forward doesn't he. Hard to put on the grd

What about that tackle that put about 10 players into touch.

Monster.

 

[The Royal Soup]

We need to wrap up Marty, AFB and Fainu long term real fast

The rooster will come knocking for AFB no doubt

 

[maxta]

Well there was a solid fact early 2nd half....we made errors- had 5 injuries, yet only Missed 7 tackles....while the effort is there, you give yourself a chance for an unlikely victory....like today

 

[Mark from Brisbane]

As much as we bag Parker , and like many he made some mistakes but he tried very hard today.

 

[nightster]

AFB is fast becoming the best prop in the game.

... and isn't Tof great off the bench

I’m fairly certain Addin is locked away until 2023. Great to see the boys doing well in the lower grades also... our forward depth is looking great.

Don’t mean to brag but I said two years ago that this would be the year he becomes number one. Ok I did mean to brag...

 

[Cliffymagic]

Dat defence. Drop balls and refs aside. Everyone defending well

 

[mave]

That win today rates very highly amongst the clubs most famous, ever.
Given the adversity under which we achieved it.

Des has put the Manly, back into Manly.

The question was always going to be his engine. He used to blow pretty quickly in matches...this year, under Donny, he is playing more minutes and they are quality minutes. How bout the effort to get to the wing and push Graham into touch in the second half? That's the difference in him this season right there!

 

[maxta]

There were times I felt guilty- as a fan - seemed only a matter of time till Souths rolled them....but the players believed and that’s why they got home

 

[EOL now nesting on the GC]

We would have lost that game over past 3 years. Well done boys. Well done Des.

And that is the Des factor.
