Good on the Cowboys!

[Holmsey]

What a top effort by them! With out their 2 best most experienced players great stuff! No grubs in their side, really happy for this side. The only decent Queensland team. Hopefully they can knock off the scumos!

 

[mickqld]

The least putrid of the teams left after us I suppose.

 

[SilverSkier]

Just wow!! Good luck to them....roosters lol, At least Manly will be there GF day!!

 

[NLSeaEagle]

Seriously I may be a closet Cowboys fan...................they are a super gutsy team!!
And 2 of my favourite players in Morgan & Taumalolo.

Cowboys going to have plenty of support against the Scum next week!

 

[HappilyManly]

Amazing that both NYC and NRL 8th placed finishers are in their GFs

Cows have 12 players from the 2015 GF still in their Team.

I will deathride the Scumos and let the Cows get their 2nd - no JT


Last time Manly NYC played in a GF was also in 2015

 

[Spartan Eagle]

And I thought I was going to avoid the grandfinal... Now get to cheer on our young lads and the cows against the scum..if both get up it will be a magical day.

 

[Ron E. Gibbs]

They're just a tough, extremely well-coached team. Always stay in the fight, stick to the game plan, rarely panic.
My wife's from Townsville so I've watched a LOT of Cowboys' games. And even when they went through a losing streak at the end of the season, they were in every game. Never got flogged, always did their best. If they manage to spoil the Billy-Cammy-Coopy love triangle next week, it'll be almost as good as a Manly win for me.

 

[Harvies elbow]

I'll be going for the cows.
But I'll say scum will win because this year I couldn't pick fruit so hopefully give them the kiss of death !!

 

[NewwyEagle]

I really couldn't be happier right now. **** the roosters. So funny

 

[Terry Zarsoff]

He's nearly as ugly as Fergo.

 

[Mark from Brisbane]

Good to see the big spending Rorters miss out, I don’t dislike the Cowgirls so I hope they win.

Anything to spoil the “ big 3 lovefest / party / greatest of all time / highest goal kicker / greatest fullback ever / future immortals / blah blah “ ( did I miss anything?).

One thing is for sure,

1) I won’t be watching channel 9

2) I won’t start watching until kick off

PS: sorry that’s two

GF is only shown live on 9!

Also it's Daylight Savings time, so in Qld Manly NYC are on at 12:30

 

[The '47ers]

Same Spartan, I've booked an annual leave day for the GF and i thought stuff it I'm not wasting a day for Storm/Roosters GF, so all game i was cancel day off, keep day off, cancel day off, keep day off

Lets not forget that Manly played all year without our 2 best in Snake and Matai.
Then we lost Jorge in round 13.😕

Cows had kept 14 of their 2015 GF side and only lost 2.
Therefore their structures, plays etc were not changed

Well coached side that Manly could learn from

No I think you've covered it, since they will never mention that they were three of the biggest salary cap-rorting players in the history of human endeavour.

 

[torana355]

Even if you don't like any team but Manly you have to admire the way the Cowboys play. I would LOVE for them to beat the Storm in the GF.

 

[court83]

Worst result for mine... Hate the roosters, but really, this cows team won't bother a full strength clinical melb team... No point watching next week, melb 32-8

 

[sheridanstand78]

You have to admire the Cowboys for their achievement in making the grand final from 8th spot. Tonight they showed their clinical side and in the last 15 minutes especially controlled the game and locked Easts out. I admire their composure and the options they take under pressure. There is no doubt that the Drizzle are warm favorites next week and rightly so. I expect the Cows to give a good account of themselves but I do not think they have the guns the Drizzle have and that will prove decisive. Never the less I will be backing them next Sunday night!!

 

[Lord Eagleton]

Its going to be Cowboys fairytale! Big Toddy approves of this fairytale script, im sure. It will be good for the rugby league community up there in QLD. JT & Scott out injured half the season, the odds against them, wow its an NRL fairytale! Toddy will love this outcome. A good result for the NRL channel 9.

So you're implying that Manly isn't a reasonably well coached side? We beat them convincingly with our coach so not really much to learn. Easier coaching the Cows when 90% of your team have been together for quite some time!
