[The Who]

Does anybody know how many, if any, of the starting 17 were actual Manly juniors, or were they recruited from elsewhere?

Hopefully this win will lift the entire club, I watched the game on my computer and these kids gutsed it out when they were on the wrong end of a big penalty count mid-match and either side of half-time they were dominated, they finished all over the top of the Whingers and it was great that this team won and made up for the heartbreak of losing so controversially last year against Drugcastle. Some great talent for Manly to nurture, our under 20s and under 16s have won trophies in recent times and our club MUST keep the talented kids and produce a pipeline for future success, well-done fellas, you did our club proud today!!

Well done boys, top effort

 

[malroon]

Yep, as much use as a ... here's a plan ... use the great Harold Matts win to have a shot at Baz .... you are a prize goose ..... let the kids bask in their own achievement without your sore arrse crap ....

You're a complete F***WIT, yeah the boy's get on here , looking for glory, grow the F***k up..!!

It seems the juniors are showing up the seniors big time. Well done guys.

Don't mention the senior team or the coach in this thread, we are saving it for a wank off, ah Woodsie..

Great win for the boys and the club.

I love the result but (and to be fair I have a dark cloud this morning)
1. I hope we do not become a club that relies on the lower grades for our wins. Reminds me of the bears reserve grade in the 90's
2. Considering that parra, a basket case, has won 20 of these things and has not done anything, we should just enjoy the win without creating expectations of a golden era

 

[SoaringEagle]

Just wanted to mention the number 10 Ahofono is a year young turned/turning 15 this year

Sounds like we are trying to emulate Parras lower grades with that team sheet.

Didn't see one game, can anyone comfirm if it was a case of the biggest and Strongest or some actual talent in there?
