Game Day: Manly v Broncos [Round 10, 2023]

[Once Was Brissie Kid]

I'm tipping Sea Eagles by 1 on the back of some bad luck officiating that falls Manly's way for the first time since 1978.

If it's a clutch 2 point FG from DCE in the final minute it would fit my aforementioned dream perfectly.

 

[Graham Eadie]

I totally forgot until you mentioned dreams but last night I dreamt I was starting a new job as a plasterer (something I've never done in my life). The boss was an expert, effortlessly filling and smoothing some horrendous cracks and gaps. When I finally saw the bosses face it was none other than DCE.

I'm usually not one for premonitions but this was a very strange dream that I couldn't help but feel was the universe was trying to tell me something. (Could be good or bad)

That you need to get plastered?

 

[Graham Eadie]

I'm backing young Johns, whipping boy extraordinaire to star and shove it up all the doubters.

 

[BOZO]

How bad do we want this game tonight ?

If we treat this game as a life and death matter
and we do all that is possible and turn the impossible into a win
We will win this game


What is the actual meaning of a life and death matter ?

It means very severely serious do or die circumstances

It means to kill or be killed . How badly do we want to live ? As bad as we hate to lose !

Tonight we will not die on Brocos Turf . We want to go back home and Live in winning Glory

Tonight we will turn the impossible into Possible and Passionately Prevail and Bury the Brocos Alive in front of their Frenzy Fans

I think Broncos are a lot less scary than they are presented. They absolutely can turn it on, but they are too flamboyant for their own good at the moment. If our linespeed / defence was better i'd like to show them space on the edges in the early stages; sliding and pushing them from sideline to sideline. Manage that and the broncos are they type of side to forget they can go straight through the front door...

In this one i reckon;

Manly 13+ is a 20% chance​

Manly 1-12 a 15% chance​

Broncos 1-12 a 15% chance​

Broncos 13+ a 50% chance​

To me this is a free shot game. We are giving Broncos a free home game , they are full strength apart from Corey Oates, coming off a thumping by south's.

Us have players coming back from injury, no Jake, Toff or shoe man, our poor showing last weekend.

If the Broncos are serious about being a top 4 side I expect them to win by 30 + points.

But sport is a funny thing you never know, just look at the tigers last week against the Panthers.

The one thing which we need to do is take our chances when they arrive .

Hope it's a close game.

Should be a great game I’m expecting a close game for the most part maybe they get away in the last 20 mins but if Manly can stay in game they can get the win
GO MANLY

If we're ahead on the scoreboard with 1 minute to go I think we might be a chance of winning. Otherwise donkeys x 24.

 

[Eagles4Life]

Eagles by 5. (A one-point win would also be acceptable) Go, Manly. We are in this until we are not.

 

[niccipops]

We win this at Brookie. The team we've listed is quite strong although worried about those returning from injury, especially Tom.
Just want them to play hard and play strong. Hoping that the ref is fair but Suncorp is a worry.
Go Manly!

Well that won't be happening !

 

[JBW]

The bench is terribly weak. The last 15 mins of the first half will be telling once the starting pack is off.

It'll be a high scoring affair in one way or another

 

[ALinda]

I've just seen the full moon rising and thought we're going to need something to go our way tonight, so maybe that's it 🤞

Hoping my heart wins but, being at the Broncs home and w/o Jake, I'm fearing my head's going to win. Anyway, Go Manly!!

Were is Wolfman?

 

[hozza]

Just hoping the boys put in a big effort, not expecting to win. Let’s go boys

 

[Saabnaldo]

I think if we start the way we did against Melbourne we’ll have a chance but if we start the way we have the last couple of weeks then we have no chance. It’s all about the start

 

[Rafferty]

Hope we dig in defensively, hit with a bit of the passion we showed against Melbourne, a Guac, Sauce type hit on Patty would work, if someone could get a shot on Walsh, maybe Reyno and Mam, better hit Fainsworth too, perhaps even kidnap Hass pregame and where right back in it.

Seriously of course we can win all we have to do is out score them, how hard can it be, Keppie scored a try last week.

 

[Will on the hill]

I'd be happy if we don't get thrashed and we see Tommy being more Turbo and less tentative.

 

[skull61]

Don’t know if true but just heard on the rush hour show Turbo is a late scratching
