I've been really impressed since he arrived at Manly. So much intensity in his runs, obviously making the most of a new start with us.

Thurston just said in the post match interview something I've been saying the last few weeks.Manly won because they played a patient game.
Don't care, but I hope it stays!

EAGLE ROCK !!! onya boys and all the fans , including the keyboard warriors...
Had my money on them and knew it was our night , crystal ball working overtime
While our DEFENSE was a major improvement and the boys worked for each other, it is scary to think what the score might have been if.
1. we cut out our error rate
2. spread the ball through the backline
3. put on some plays
4. Stop giving away stupid penalties
Good signs indeed.

Whose Thurston?
Frankenstein ate him up on the try line and Chez ran around his skinny old arse
Had a tear in the eyes tonight
Great win, standard has been set.
Bulldogs next week at brookvale oval, haven't beaten them in a while we need to continue this form.

Both Us and Bullfrogs will be on a high from their wins this week, however the difference will simply be if we can put on the same defensive effort.
Given our dismal home ground record, our boys will be up for it, i smell another WIN for the sea eagles next week, put your money on it.

Yep.
Dolly girdler coming up.
Geez almost perfect footy tonight.
Congrats to the boys.
Blokes stood up.
Nate led them like he should and DCE.
And had some structure.
Now the tough part. Doing the same next week and beyond.
Go Manly.
There is no substitute for momentum, and with players coming back - we have momentum!
Well to be fair they make pies as well to cater for the upper class not just us plebs.

Just a side note we hadn't beaten the Cowboys since Round 7, 2014.

This team made me proud tonight, I've been guilty of saying some negative stuff about this team in recent times but tonight took me back four years, I haven't seen such commitment in defence or willingness to attack and support the ball carrier for so long I forgot just how good it feels to spill my beer with excitement, thank you boys and lets keep it going
Think we all have Ron.
But rightly so. We support Manly and are better than the rest.
But I do support Barrett, but not the cleanouts.
It just makes his job almost impossible to coach cohesion.
Tonight showed what's possible.
