Game Day: Manly V Broncos [Round 13, 2025]

[eaglebuzz]

Fualalo having his best game in first grade so far. Hoppa definitely the better choice at fullback than Turbo on one leg. DCE definitely motivated to force Slater to pick him again.

Aloiai and Burbo are huge ins too.

All in all, they are playing so much better than I could have expected, but the Broncos aren't exactly in form at the moment.

 

[Hertera]

Now please finish them off do not clock off

 

[rj90]

I’ve seen enough. Hoppa should be our fullback moving forward.

 

[Red Baron]

Donkeys are so overrated…

 

[DanielTurbo888]

Faulalo has proven me wrong. Great work

 

[bob dylan]

Between you, me and the gate post ... right now I can't fault DCE's game tonight.

Its a masterclass for sure.

 

[Saabnaldo]

Garrick hope no damge to cheekbone

They’re beautiful cheekbones aren’t they

 

[Hertera]

Saab may be quicker but I feel Fualalo brings more to the team. Saab a great athlete Fualalo a more rounded footballer

 

[WAMF]

Turbo to NSW Cup for a game or 2 so he can regain confidence.
WAMF proceeds to duck for cover.

 

[bob dylan]

This year

Oh yeah I forgot.

 

[Cliffymagic]

We been pinned for 2 highshots, swear ive seen at least 4 from Brisbane.

 

[DanielTurbo888]

Brooks has had a blinder

 

[eaglebuzz]

Turbo to NSW Cup for a game or 2 so he can regain confidence.
WAMF proceeds to duck for cover.

I'd rather just rest him until he's fully fit

 

[JakeyB789]

This fkn bipolar team keeps giving me hope every second week.. will struggle to get properly excited until we string a few of these types of performances on the trot in a row

That said - I think a lot of it comes down to the constant in and out of Turbo, whether he’s playing or whether he’s playing whilst injured or not. Becoming too much of an issue now IMO. Might be time to pull the plug and prioritise Lehi from now on

 

[Ohgeez]

Broncos will come out strong in this second half I hope we don’t clock off

 

[DieHardManlyFan]

I’ve seen enough. Hoppa should be our fullback moving forward.

Tom to #14, can bring impact for 15/20 mins a half then go off again. Also perfect cover to come on for any player 1-6. Play him like a quarterback.

 

[Cochrane]

Where did the whingers go? Disappeared after 10 minutes, jumping back in for a bad pass/missed tackle.

 

[Rafferty]

Nice team effort and good to see our captain back, never thought I’d say that after what’s transpired this year, just play out another 40

 

[The '47ers]

I'd rather just rest him until he's fully fit

Turbo fully fit will never be in the same sentence again unfortunately

Hopoate is a complete stud - I actually didn't think about Turbo the whole of the first half.
