Plenty of Doggie supporters on the kennel saying the same thing.

Hey Eagle1 matee that's what the storm was saying last week. At least we're not in a kennel smelling dog craps but getting fresh air above should do us good.
Exactly ED2D, quietly confident about this one.

Thanks all for none of your help except wild guess got me through. Cowboys, now it's a tough one to go for should I hope for the eel for our chance or bronc for my chance of winning my tipping comp? ESPN tipping using my 2nd joker double pts currently in 4th place, C'mon EELS..

I'm being greedy🤫😬, blame it on cost of living I guess 😤
My tipping is so hopeless, I was gonna give you some educated input but it would be outlandishly unreliable. Broncos, because they have no apparent salary cap 😜

Yes, I have just realised no education in my input 🤣🤣😫🤣🤣Happy to help.

maybe Manly & DCE might put on a scrum piece try like in the final v Dogs last year and never rolled out ever again since for some unknown reason. {At 10mins in this video]
Loved the way Tommy just surged into the line to start the attacking play. More of this tomorrow please.

Manly wearing maroon home jersey tomorrow.
Congrats on 100 games for Saab.
Expecting a semi-final type of game... good thinking, Manly!

Hope Manly has Talau on bench - just silly to go in without a reserve back.
Tricky choice, maybe horses for courses. Dogs usually pressure teams with their up-tempo defence and general speed of play, which takes a toll on the bigger guys, so I can see the point in having that extra forward available to share the load.
Some teams use a sprightly 2nd rower on the bench as emergency backs cover - something Manly is short of. Not many sides pick a winger on the bench.
Still a thing of beauty that try.
I wonder why...could it be to do with the '95 GF anniversary?

Maybe our mainly white jerseys are too similar to the dogs? Not sure.

We're saving all of the trick plays for the Grand Final (...never let them know your next move).
yep, same reason as last years final, too much white on both jerseys.
