Game Day: Dragons v Manly [Round 3, 2021]

[Waz13]

Manly to go out to a 13+ lead.... and then get mowed down.

Cmon Manly. Just get the job done.

I was thinking this earlier actually similar to Tigers last year. And in a horrid omen on the way home from dropping my son to school this morning, what van just happens to pull up alongside me? Yes Wombat the bloody lube mobile van. The very van of the game day sponsorship. Look it could have been worse though, it could have rear ended me.........

Didn't Craig Hancock have a Lube Mobile franchise for a while? I seem to recall seeing a profile of him years ago in Rugby League Week where being a mobile mechanic was his then day job.

 

[Bring back the.... Biff?]

I have more hope of us winning tonight than I have had for the last 2 weeks, still tipped dragons, but to win we need DCE and foz to stand up.. we need them to drag our sh!thouse backline to that try line... I'm absolutely disgusted to read suli has 11 tries in 68 games. .
Your centres ideally need to be scoring 10 trys or so a season if your team is going to be successful, 11 Trys In 68 games is an embarrassment and isn't upto first grade standard.

Put that down to dce and Sironen

Good to see Toff get a run

 

[Fibro Eagle]

DCE will play a MOTM performance tonight , He knows he is under the pump what better game against the player that is putting pressure on his origin spot ,
The thing with great players that they can rise to the occasion, 2 bad games now so it’s time DCE to step up
I’m tipping a Manly win tonight
GO MANLY

 

[Rocky]

Sipley!! Love it. Go hard big fella. Thats also a win for all the BWSE boys who are close to a game

 

[Sheikheagle]

I like Sipley over Boyle. Late mail said Boyle was doubtful. So assuming he was fit he would have played. Let’s hope sippers has a blinder.

Good to see the Boyle has been lanced.

Norman said in his interview we are soft up the middle, and they will rip us apart there, then exploit our RIGHT edge which spun me out.

Time for Sipley to take his chance

 

[Remy]

Thank you Des!!!! Tof deserves this chance, can't wait too see him play!! Hope he puts in a show! As for no changes to our backline, just praying Garrick and Parker somehow defend their hearts out.

 

[The '47ers]

We’ll be in Toowoomba tonight taking our grandson out for the weekend as he’s at boarding school and hasn’t been out this term so I’ll be absent again during the game night thread.

I’ll record it , and if we are competitive I’ll watch it when we return on Sunday, if it’s a shellacking that big red delete button will beckon.

Fingers crossed they’ll at least have a good crack.

My daughter goes to St Saviour's, I'll be keeping my eyes peeled for any sign of Mark Jr Jr, or Mark from Brisbane the 3rd whatever his name may be. 😉

Manly 13+ DCE man of match.Go Manly ❤️

If anything, our middle has been quite decent compared to the edges

 

[The better Robbo]

Sipley in! Great news! Hope he grabs his chance, he can be a real wrecking ball off the bench and always gets us on the front foot, has an offload too. Finally this team is starting to look like it should. Sipley playing for a contract too, I can't believe we haven't seen more of him!

 

[The better Robbo]

I think our middle is a strength and Sipley adds to this even further

 

[Tragic Eagle]

Gosh we need a win. Common boys! I hope Lady Luck is with us today.

 

[mickqld]

Goons by plenty. Another inept display from the backs, anothet underwhealming performance by the $mil myth.

 

[pjayz]

I have a feeling we will start well and put on two or three tries and then the well will dry up.

Come on Eagles...something...please.
