Game Day: Eels v Manly [Round 11, 2022]

[Pete W]

Firstly I want to say G'day and I hope all is well to all the passionate Silvertails that log on here and pour their heart ad soul into this forum

I also want to say that there was no heart and soul in last weeks disgraceful 38 to Zero effort .
Zero passion , Zero , Pride , Zero Resilience

Passionate fans will always support our legendary Manly club but we will never accept mediocre Zero Unmanly performances from our players

If our players do not do justice to their legendary jerseys and redeem them selves and beat the eels tonight . They can all sign up for the North Sydney Bears and play in Western Australia

Have to say I've missed your posts Bozo

Agree that this week will be an important game, but I'm pretty sure last week was an important game as well, and look how that turned out. The idea that all we need to do is "flick a switch" is a dangerous one - even though it's tempting to believe that we did it last season and we can do it again.

This is round 11, not round 5, and right now we're sitting outside the eight with a for and against of -38. Given the way we've played, that's exactly where we deserve to be. Getting players back will help, but there is no easy fix. We're going to need a massive effort from every player on the field. I hope we get it, because they should all be very aware that we're running out of time.

To be honest... I'd rather lose to the bronco's than the slime.... I have a bad feeling that will be probably both...

 

[SeaEagleRock8]

You mean seconds or minutes? I'd settle for either right now!

Hit the nail on the head. We need to stay strong and focussed for the first 20 seconds, and then should be able to kick on from there.

Effort, intensity and line speed will go a long way to a win ,we have the talent and skill
Go Manly

Out of interest is anyone even remotely going to be looking forward to watching this? Once Parra hits 10 to Manly 0 after 10 minutes again..... I'm done.

I'll be working, so I won't have to deal with the pain 🤣

 

[Will on the hill]

I'd love us to pull off an upset tonight but what I need is to see Tom running freely, if he is limping around the field again I will be disappointed in so many ways.

Cummins was not given our match earlier in the week

hope it’s a mistake because Cummins Friday night will love nothing more than to stitch us up again, he’s another one that despises us.

WTF?????

What happened to us having Todd Smith refereeing for this game?

Having Cummins and Klein is just as bad as having Atkins and Klein as far as I am concerned.

It reminds me of our 1978 jersey - a real guts and glory year - hoping for the same!

 

[Tragic Eagle]

If we win tonight I’ll buy the jersey!

 

[The Royal Soup]

We will either win or get absolutely smashed!!

I noticed Todd Smith isn't refereeing any game so my guess is he's got covid/flu...
