Game Day: Manly v Broncos [Round 5, 2020]

[Mark from Brisbane]

I like that - hope he goes well. It's been a long term project so hope it has been worth the wait

Now all we need is a nickname for him

Tuna ??

Funa Park ??

Funa is Japanese for goldfish (if you trust google), it;s also a genus of sea snails

T Funa = Typhoon ??

Tyfuna

I am sorry but the script is not with us tonight feathered friends. NRL would not want the Broncos to be down so low ..... With my big, beautiful hooter I smell another stitch up.

I share your concerns, and if that happens we will truly know that football isn’t real anymore, it’s just about TV ratings and entertainment.

I get the sentiments and understand it's dangerous with a team like Boncs getting smashed last start and the NRL would love them to "Do Well"....fact is if Manly turn up hard ready to play...the officials, Bris, Nrl combined should not be able to stop us....in fact THIS is a game the top teams every season show why they are just that....

I reckon this has to be about rotation.

Congratulations Tyfuna player #619

I agree with this BUT let’s not forget that effectively the broadcasters own the game.

I think your in for a surprise old sport

 

[Cliffymagic]

Thinking the refs will ease up on us tnite after getting shafted last week. Will be too obvious if they RIP us 2 weeks straight.

I’m backing in Funa for a meat pie on debut. I reckon he gets on the end of a beautiful cut out pass from Turbo
