Pre-Game Manly v Cowboys [Round 15, 2022]

[davohan123]

Sutton is our ref this week

No Cummins parra or Atkins in sight.

I can live with that.

 

[The Wheel]

The Cowboys are coming for our Ranch

The high riding Cowboys are on their way down to 4 Pines Park this Friday night for a mouth-watering feed.

I see Leilua has been released today. Stright into the cows this week? We handled him fine last weekend so probably a good thing if he drops in green?

Not named,hasn’t trained with them yet and only 3 days til kick off,I’d say there’s more of a chance Parra winning this year than Luciano coming in this week

Yep i read he will only play for the Cowgirls next weekend v Broncos.

This is a really winnable game for us..
just looking over the team lists, esp in the back line, the only real mismatch is Holmes vs Harper.. the rest is pretty even…

We’re at home, coming off 2 big wins, there’s really no excuse at all to lose this game..
It will come down to who wants it more, who runs harder, who gets the faster play the balls, it will be the little things that decide this game…
I really hope we get up for it…

 

[The Royal Soup]

Last two games we have conceded just two tries, and scored 70 something points. Think you're just having a lend tbh.

yes but look at the opposition

 

[Mitch]

Bet he doesn’t

Not sure who Paseka will come in for this week, but he’ll play first grade mate.

 

[Nordburg]

Taupau was hobbling after the Tigers game so fingers crossed

That's just how he walks.

We shall fight them and defend our sacred home ground

What ever the cost may be

We shall never surrender !!!

Take it away Winston ...

 

[BOZO]

We will not let the Cowboys leave 4 pines park with 2 competition points

and take away our dignity !!!

I think Val plays left side, if that's correct he'll be opposite Koula & Haumole.

 

[Peter C]

Are Cows top 4? They finished bottom 2 last year. This time last year they had 6 wins (10 this year) and were coming 7th.
At this stage last year Manly had 7 wins, at this stage this year Manly has 7 wins. Very consistent

Yeah, but at this time last year we had a player return from an injury, and played out of his skin for the remainder of the year, this time, that player is out for the remainder of year, big difference

 

[Mark from Brisbane]

We need to have faith , this is winnable !!

The players headspace will be where it’s at !!

We'll know if we're a chance after the first set. We receive and make good meters with a good kick or they receive and we smother them defensively. We have to score first and we have to put massive pressure on Dearden and Townsend.

 

[Eagles4Life]

If they are committed this game is winnable!

Think it might be a stretch but equally so I’m expecting it to be a real fight and it could be the upset of the round.

DCE will need to constantly be turning then around with his kicking game as they are great defenders and have some sizzling attack.

As I say , winnable.

Definitely winnable @Mark from Brisbane However, it's almost a "must winnable" if we have any real aspirations of making a preliminary final again this season.

Drinkwater seems to be there everything in attack. Teams just don't seem to be able to keep him quiet though. What I will say is I thought our best defensive job this year was on Ponga.
