Now more than ever finding form come finals and having a healthy list matters.

That the team have started to turn it around and got that tough come from behind 1 point win out of the way.

There is hope yet.

Most of the teams above us are not going any better.

If we can just find a bit more form this week, to ignite a little confidence. You just never know.

It will be interesting to see if we get through and play the Dragons. Now that Penrith have lost, if we win on Saturday we will jump them and move into 6th (assuming Cows lose). If Dragons win they will be 7th and we will play them week one of the finals.

I would love to end this bogey side business in the finals.

We need semi finals experience to build this team towards our next overdue premiership.

They will learn from it and be better for it.

Chuck in a full salary cap to spend next year and we can have a better crack

The experience is a huge thing especially for our younger players like Tom T and Jake. Plus good players want to come to clubs that play finals, If you are playing finals footy it might just help you to not have to pay overs to get some quality signings.

Except Melbourne, Doesn'tmatta, Easts . . .
Yeah so Sharks, Cows, Riff, Broncos. Lets even throw drag queens into the mix, they aren't anything special.

There's actually an opportunity to find form in finals with this 5 plays 8, 6 plays 7 format.

Grind out a win week one of finals and anything is possible.

Come on boys. A win this week and the comp starts all over again.;-)

Manly are always in the finals. We're known for it. We either win or at least play in a s@&tload of grand finals. I wanna see us back in the finals. 3 years in a row out of em would not be cool

We'll put in a reasonable showing in the semi final, but it will be out of our hands. The NRL have already arranged, (through their loyal agents/representatives (Cecchin, Perenara)) that it will be a
Storm v Broncos GF. And the Storm will win, with a fairytale finish for Billy, Cammie and Coopy.
The script for this event went through final editing, and was given approval back in March.

Finals experience is a great thing but in sports psychology 2017 there are no big games. That is an old mentality that placed perceived limits and expectations where there was none.
It's another game, play to your strength and win.

No offence Manly, but that sounds like it was written by a Psychologist that never played finals football.

Disagree. Judging by NRL history the Dogs cheated the cap and win next yr. Storm cheated the cap and won 2 yr later. Parra cheated the cap and now !?!?. All being setup for the scumbag Westie bullsht feel good fairytale story to counter the GWS.

Do you want players thinking " wow this is origin, i best not mess up as this is the biggest stage"during the game or concentrating on what they can control ie their actions
