Go easy on Boze, Terry. The last person, I saw in that sort of shirt was a picture of now Peninsula resident, Mike Carlton. A 70 y/o man with a sleeveless shirt and saggy arms and bleached hair makes Bozo look a modicum of decency.

If we were 2 wins from 10 id say we might get pumped , but gee guys we only lost in golden point in front of 26000 fans , and to the new nrl babies . We were not that bad for 1 game in, and we haven't seen the eels play yet to see what they are going to dish up . A team of Champs doesn't always beat a champion team . Im backing us in.

Newcastle did score a few soft tries against us but a couple came on the back of consecutive penalties.
If Uate have used 2 hands he would’ve got that ball down and we win, and I believe Jorge did ground that ball in the end which also meant we would’ve won, although I could understand why it wasn’t given.
I think parra will be tough but I wouldn’t rule us out.
Just depends on how much ball the refs want to give them in our half. Plenty I’d say...

Jorge did get it down but they claimed “ driving” from Jurbo!!
First time I’ve seen that ruling!!
One of those Greenturd Manly only rules. Let's see how many "attempt to play the balls" are let go today.
They certainly can dust off a few old ones if they need a fairytale to come true!

It actually looked like jurbo dropped off after a small shove and jorge did the rest . The ball looked like it was down , so i couldnt understand the ruling .
Successful teams don't focus on excuses they focus on their own weaknesses and focus on solutions .
Your theory of every one hates us and wants us to lose has always applied but when we had premiership winning teams we always prevailed and nothing stopped us from winning the comp
Ha ha Mike Carlton the original Chardonnay leftist he blocked me on Twitter when he was having his fight with Fairfax he said “I promise not to write my column unless they pay me !” I came back and said “if u promise not write the column ill promise to buy the paper “I then followed up with “now that I think about it Mike if I were Fairfax I wouldn’t pay u to write that column either !”.And I have been banned ever since he s a very sensitive old DH is Mile C
Anyway completely off topic
But Go Manly!!!!!

I don't think the Eels pack are premiership material. We have a better starting pack. The difference will probably be the intensity that the Eels pack play with...they come out angry and aggressive and play above their potential most weeks.
The Eels have a lot of speed in that backline. Even their halves have a bit of toe. We will need to be at our best to beat these slimy pricks. I think we can do it.

Positive thoughts are good.
Let’s see how they go this afternoon but if we make the same errors and give away the same penalties ( as we did on Friday) I can see us getting absolutely towelled up!!
And THEN the calls for Hastings to replace Croker will be deafening.
