Game Day: Manly v Knights [Round 21, 2016]

[The Wheel]

Just about to leave clouds are going sun is out - come on you mighty Eagles!!!

 

[MissKate]

If they lose in front of ALL those Golden Eagles again, I'll spew! May complacency not take over, no excuses!
Go Manly!

I always get very nervous when we have a specials game day, especially if there is a meet the players after the game event, we rarely pull off a great win on the field. Hopefully today will be a good win to celebrate

Lyon out... Crap

Jamie Lyon out, Myles out. Walker to 5/8 and AFB to the bench. FMD what happened to Killer? We can't take a trick this year, nowhere near as confident of a victory now. Hopefully Dylan plays like he did in the first half against the Panthers.

At least with Myles out we have a chance of not playing like we did in the second half against the panthers.

I was hoping Parcell might be back this week.

How am I going to give Nate Myles my three points if he's not on the field.

You could mail them in, much like Nate's club performances...

Sorry Bozo, 20min ago I was confident of a win, now with Walker at 5/8 the nerves are kicking in.

 

[KeithSheldon]

Well I was correct, Walker is playing. Shame it is in the halves.

As if!!

Give em to Leary instead!

Wow really worried. Needed a strong win here for F/A.
I guess a win would be good. It seems out eight hopes are an illusion anyway. Look at the way Canberra are man-handing Souths like they are a bunch of piss-ants.
I watched the second half of the Souths game again last night. Wow Manly looked really gassed in the first section of the second half. They let players run 15 minutes without being touched multiple times off tap plays, and their halves looked dominant. Just shocking. I think this team, even at full strength, is simply not good enough to compete with the top 10 sides.
I hope I'm wrong. I'll happily take just a finals appearance, but it's clear to me we need to buy some speed into this team.

Maybe for lack of a better option?

You were right about the team changes . I saw them on NRL .com . Surely we can still beat the Knights Eagle1188 . I am also sure Walker will be pumped up to redeem him self on his stupidity

 

[HoldenV8]

In good news.....Jake is captaining the side.

I think that shows that he is running ahead of DCE for the 2017 team captaincy.

 

[Woodsie]

WillyArmy to score a double.
Starling to have a blinder.
AFB to have a dig after being dropped.
The shaggy toothbrush to score.

Manly by 20.

There is a possibility that Walker will run rampant with his running game. It will all depend on how dominant we are in the middle of the ground and how confident he is with his hand.

We are playing the worst side the NRL has seen in years at home AND they are decimated with injury... Talk about hand wringing lol... We are playing good footy and will win
