We are the Manly boys,
We had a win today,
We are the boys you know of
We showed them how to play,
No matter where we’ll be
Maroon and White you'll see,
Oh aren’t we a wonderful credit
To our locality,
So cheer boys cheer,
We are together,
Every now and then we have a win…..have a win
We will play them all around
At our home or any ground,
If they’ll always play a fair and honest game
So it’s GUZZLE GUZZLE GUZZLE
As we pour it down our muzzle,
And sing out the order loud and clear, 'MORE BEER',
And we will drink all night
Until we are very tired
In the shade of the Manly Leagues Club.

Injuries:

Sea Eagles speedster Tolu Koula was forced from the field with a knee injury during Saturday night's win over the Dragons.

Koula helped himself to a try in the 20th minute at Jubilee Stadium but went down injured nine minutes later and was assisted from the field.

"The initial assessment is it's a Grade 2 MCL and generally speaking that's a 4-6 weeks out for something like that," Manly coach Anthony Seibold said.

What an absolute putrid second half with the wind. I guess it just carries on the theme of our season. On a plus, we won at the Gong, which has Ben a rarity over the years.

It was at Kogarah unfortunately

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news HK but it was @ Jubilee.

 

[Sheikheagle]

Jazz has dropped off a cliff this past month. Not too upset to see him go.

i think playing hurt. But looks like he is 50.

 

[MissKate]

Why didn’t we get a penalty try for that

 

[redlineg]

We needed a truck load of points yet we've played this second half just defending the lead..I just don't get the drop of intensity...yes the season is gone, but at least try and live the dream!

Yes Agree!
The pride in pulling on a Manly jersey these days is lost behind looking at the weekly guaranteed pay check wether we win or lose!

 

[nightster]

Just remember who our opposition tonight is and just how much they've sucked lately.

The score would be reversed (and worse) playing one of the better teams.

Just enjoy the win commodore

 

[Uk eagle]

First win since 2014 at Kograh so enjoy it we don’t get them that often

In the context of a season of football it's a decent result and one we would take. The pressure was on to win by plenty but all the talk of a cricket score in two games and hoping the roosters and dolphins lose was always living in cloud cuckoo land. Our season went down the pan with consecutive losses against the titans and knights

Probably inspired by Grimace’s half time talk

 

[The Insomniac]

Fair dinkum. Put anybody else in next week in Brookes's position. He had a Barry tonight. Walsh has to get a run against the Warriors, surely. If not I'm going to the Sack Seibold Immediately thread.

Yeah but at least try

It was Kogarah.

We last won in Wollongong in 2023.

 

[NYEagle]

Ahhh Mickey Mouse footy - don’t you love it!.

Competition is over, Manly win!

[HoldenV8]

Just enjoy the win commodore

Admiral thankyou.

Monaro too

 

[Sheikheagle]

yes a new born giraffe trying to run around on a frozen lake

That is brilliant and unfortunately true 😂

 

[mickqld]

Well done Manly. They've tried to dig themselves out of the hole these last 2 weeks. Pity we didn't show this sort of attacking attitude against the Tigers, Knights, Titans, Parra. Problem is our defense is rubbish and just not good enough to play finals.

 

[Eagledare2dream]

Agreed Mick, I'll b happy if we win the next games and b even 12-12 for the year. With the young fella in da wing we can look forwards to the future matee..

 

[Eagledare2dream]

We have been successful every decade so far so hopefully get 1-2 before this one is over mate.

 

[Kalvin]

I feel like our defence has gotten worse and worse as the season has gone on

 

[The '47ers]

Listened on the radio at work, so was it a Slivertailer who ran on the field?
