Game Day: Manly V Dragons [Round 7, 2025]

[Chunkytuna]

It takes about 40 - 45 minutes to drive there, to fight for a park. Ill have a 3 year old, 10 year old, a 12 year old roosters support and my wife with me......that sounds like a **** night out mate

Imagine how good it’ll be when we’re givin it to the dragoons and you 17k of your best mates are roaring them home! Tip though: leave 5-10 mins early if the result is assured. Makes getting out of the joint a whole lot easier.

I imagine with the 3 year old we will be out at half time

 

[WiseyEagle]

Well, it's raining and has for the last couple of days, so that's another minus for the home side. Predicted a thrashing from away team but will rain and wet, slippery, muddy ground, predicting only a half thrashing by away team.

Try the industrial side of Brookvale, you always find a spot, even though it might be half kilometer away.🤨

 

[Brookie1973]

If the great DCE and Brooks can't get on top of their opposites Flanagan and Ilias with a near full strength backline at home, and our pack minus 2 after their embarrassing displays recently, then we are done for the year. Dragons missing a couple of forwards too, and are an average team. Obviously no easy games, but we still possess more strike

Wish I shared your confidence.

 

[Brookie1973]

I'll take it!!

24 sounds about right for the dragons

 

[MW66]

Zero confidence in this and with Aloaia out our pack looks average. Dragons are a good side and if we are not 100% switched on then this could get ugly.

 

[The Who]

Jurbo comes in for his share of criticism on here but at least he is durable. Unlike Tent and Al.
We may as well try to trade these two given the amount of time they are spectators.

even with Aloiai are pack looks average ......

 

[Eagle 1]

We need to run them ragged today. Couple of early trys will rattle their cage, they usually don't recover when this happens.

Even with Aloiai our pack looks average. Outside of Haumole, our forward stocks are at an all-time low, which makes it very difficult to win football games even against bog-average teams.

 

[Ron E. Gibbs]

even with Aloiai are pack looks average ......

Great minds, Wombat. We deserve a two-for-one deal on tonight's lubrication bill…

 

[The Indian]

So we are already a popgun forward pack these days at best anyway ( bar a banged up Huamole ) and so we replaces Josh A with a bench back like Faulolo.....

Makes sense.

Dragons middle must be giggling already.

If it's raining, this could be helpful for us.

Well done feathered friend . Your solution will serve Dan Well .
There are always solutions to our challenges
I hope Seibold finds one tonight for his players

 

[BOZO]

Its raining , Its pouring
But that wont stop Saab , Koula , Hoppa , Garrick , DCE and Haumole from scoring !

 

[Mark from Brisbane]

Surely Clayton F is a bit of a waste on the bench , I’d much prefer another forward and move Burbo if needed.

Sadly I think this could be a flogging and the start of the end.

We were 3rd with a bullet two weeks ago , we could be 14th after this game and if Penrith beat us ( which you’d say is likely ) we’ll probably be 16th with the reverse to a bullet ( whatever that is , maybe an anchor).

Our inconsistency is our consistency and it is impossible to know which fxcken team will run out tonight? The shxt one, the really, really shxt one, the OK one or hope of all hopes for the good one? Got me ****ed......? Unfortunately the Dargons seem to have the wood on us. Bar one our forwards are just pathetic and they give me no confidence. Another short turn also around doesn't help. So, I'm going into the game tonight with a mid sized lube job and I'm testing out a new combination lube with lignocaine and aloe vera. I believe Tony Mestrov has been testing it out down on the farm with @BOZO cows and sheep and has had some good results. Watch Manly safely, lube, early, lube often, aways, better to be safe than sorry.

Stay classy Sea Eagles fans and I guess I'll be seeing @The Royal Soup and @NREagle on dark Mode later for some "positive" commentary on our performance.......

Whats the weather like down there?
