Game Day: Chooks V Manly [Finals Week 2, 2024]

[mickqld]

What do you make of Lodge throwing down a challenge to Hargraves to come out firing, like I'll be waiting. Maybe Sieb's might be behind this, could get a penalty or two out of it maybe a sin binning of JWH would be more preferable.

Say nothing. Do the talking on the field and just win FFS. Fu*k I hate the rorters.

Well last weeks win shut the Soup up completely , vanished totally after we started coming back.

No doubt first dropped ball or penalty he’ll be back slagging off , so come on team let’s shut him up again and not only win , but win well.

A win will make my day , and especially not having to read his dribble.

 

[BOZO]

Now or never boys - let’s stuff the chickens tonight 🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅

It is now or never indeed feathered friend
We are on full flight towards our Finals Frontier
Where Great Manly teams have boldly gone where other Great Manly Premiership Winners have gone

When our founders created the Manly Sea eagles
They created Manly to be Greatest club of all
Today we will be the Great Manly team that they aspire us to be and the Inspiration to our Legendary club and all our Manly people
Let us live up to Great Expectations and Soar into Premiership Winning Greatness

Games like today really worry me...
Everything to play for, a close to full strength manly side Vs a very injury hit roosters... It's a game manly SHOULD win easily... We SHOULD put plenty of points on early then cruise to the finish without risking anyone... But games like this are games manly usually lose ...

Er.. reality check! Manly are well and truly underdogs in this game, if they win it will be a big upset.

0n ch 9, then says it would be good if the Ref didn't use the sin bin, just let the forwards rip in, it's what the fans want.

I like you're bravado c83, but we'll be doing it tough today. A win by us will be one for the ages I'd say.

Can’t wait to get out there and give those chook supporters an absolute roasting today. Time to turn it on boys. Leave nothing out there. Full throttle foot to the floor charging from start to finish. No second chances. LETS FUKEN GOOOOOOO!!
MAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANNNNLLY!

 

[Disco]

I've a good vibe on today.

No idea why, we are certainly underdogs...but we could just nab it I think.

Yep I want to be as confident as some on here but I just can’t see anything but a roosters win by 14

Does that mean I won’t support the boys no it doesn’t I hope we f$$k the sombrero wearing club tonight, I hate the roosters badly.

 

[Eagle 1]

Got my URM polo on today, hasn't failed yet, compared to my Points Bet polo that has let me down in the past 2 recent losses... Carn..Manly !!

 

[hozza]

Cracking day, made for final’s football!
Can’t get to the game but will be going bananas at home. To all you legend fans going, scream loud and hard for the ones that can’t be there.

It’s go time, let’s fuk the Roosters right up. Go Manly

 

[ManEagle]

Cmon MANLY roast those rorting cnating roosters, can't stand them.
Can't say I'm confident, but fk it give it your all,leave nothing on the field and rip in.

Today is the day this Manly team show they can
Don’t buy into the injury hit roosters theme they have 1 key player out in Walker which is a big loss for them ,can include Radley and Smith but they have the back ups for them but they still have a good team listed better than most
Manly need to play to there full potential if they can do that I see them winning but if they fall back into the old ways we’ll it ain’t going to be good enough
GO MANLY with a slight bit of confidence

Radley is still in their squad of 19 and is expected to play

I think we play better as underdogs. Most of the games we've lost this year were the ones we were expected to win

 

[ALinda]

Game day and I'm nervously excited or excitedly nervous, not sure which! Beautiful footy weather, a nearly full-strength team, plenty of maroon & white there to cheer them on, so no excuses.
Hopefully Atkins refs the game fairly like last week and limits the 6-agains and whistle blowing in general.
Am concerned about Tupou and Young being somewhat taller than our wingers. Hoping JWH and Radley volatility works in our favour and Lodge, Aloiai & co aren't baited into doing anything foolish.
Can't wait to get there and be with the sea of cheering Manly fans. Don't care what the score is as long as we score 1 point more than them. Go Manly!!!
