Jake Trbojevic led our tackle count with 39 (0 missed). Then came Taupau and Api both with 35 tackles and 1 missed. Dylan Walker was our worst for missed tackles with 4. Killer, Skivy and Lussick had 3 missed each. DCE made 26 tackles and missed 2 in his return.

Steve Matai ran the most metres for Manly with 158. Taupau, Jake and Tommy were next with 145, 138 and 134 respectively

We made 5 line breaks today. Jake had the most with 2. Tom, BJ and Wiliame had the other 3.

Brayden Wiliame marked his first ever win in first grade with a try. Lest we forget his curse.
 
I'd prefer the Stockmen. However up there in Redneckland, Australian-sounding team names aren't marketable. Neither are Akubras. You only succeed if you doggedly ape the Gary Goobers in Qld.
Agree.
Across Northern Australia a Cowboy is known as a Ringer, very common use.
But, as you say, it wouldn't sell.
 
Was my first game watching at an establishment this season, wasn't great but nice to piss off the spitt swapping sister ****ers on the way out
 
Yep. People are hoping he's going to turn into a Milford...it's not happening.This blokes a centre. The sooner they swap him and Jamie the better.
He may have to go to fullback or wing this week if both Tommy and Snake are out. It will be up to Api then to prove himself at number 6.
 
Have we ever lost a game where both trbos scored? I believe we never lost a game in which both Stewarts scored.
