What is this funny feeling? Is this what a win feels like?😉

Agree. The fruits of victory might scour me. Bit rich.

First win at Penrith since 2011

Someone said they'll take an ugly win - win delivered.

Ok, so plenty of errors but real tough esp with Walker and Wright going off.

Well damn done guys!

That is TB channelling his inner Wayne Bennett

Chez's kick chase, Marty's leap to catch a bomb, Kels try stopping tackles, Tangi and Tani running amok, Hodko's support of a rampaging Jake ...

Love to see a Manly win

Medicab anyone

nrl should have to buy a medicab for the clubs that don't have them...and then reduce the salary cap by the amount.


(wont happen) but c'mon teams...sort yer selves oooout

Maroon on dribble M just announced 'Jack Trbojevic' as man of the match.
I didn't see that much of him, can anyone else enlighten?

Oh Gaz... the talent certainly doesn’t match the brain

@Bradza i am man enough to admit I was wrong thought all week we would get flogged and take my humble pie
Great win by the boys
That makes up for the last few weeks

It takes a big man to admit that.
I don't meet that criteria.....

Congratulations to the 17 players and to Twenty. I didn't agree with his bench selection of Hodkinson but ultimately it proved the correct one. Also the much maligned Matt Wright, before his injury, and Parker both proved their worth.
While many on here may belittle Twenty's selections and tactics it's obvious from the shots of him in the box that he bleeds maroon-and-white. He's as passionate as all of us. I think we should lay off him.

I'm glad I got my ECG done this arvo and not have to do it during or after the game!



Still a bit torn though whether I wanna download this game for future watching......!

It shows how much we missed our forwards out with injury. The combination of Tanginoa and Paseka off the bench is what allows our side to 'play the 80'. Taupau and AFB are great up the middle, although they can't stay on for the entirety of the match, and the players replacing them have been inadequate without both Paseka & Tanginoa. Suli is good, and Wright/Parker weren't found out tonight. Great result, although the efforts of some players do sugarcoat the quality of the side. As long as we continue to grow, and win, we can finish this season respectably. I think the reality is hitting the players now that they have greatly underachieved to this point.

Strong win manly, was eerily confident prior, although still comes as a surprise. Shame about Walker, hope he's ok.

In addition to what you said It’s good to see Uate out, Lewis Brown Out and Lane with limited minutes. I don’t want to see Lane any more. If he doesn’t want to play for Manly he should be playing in Blacktown. We should be preparing for next year.
I see a good forward squad building for next year, we just have to complete the clean out.
I just wish we didn’t do stupid things like take the two points when they are a man down. That could easily have gone very wrong and it’s the hallmark of a dumb coach. The season in over so it is time to get the team playing footy so we can build and practise for next year.
Promising signs, and while I am still pissed we are left at 5-11 I just want to focus on building for next year not watching penalty goals.

Oh so that's why we won, we had 14 players on the field, very sneaky, no one noticed

edit: I hope there is another brother called "Jack".🙂

I saw great games from Tom and Jake but happily surprised by the stats....Jake played 80 minutes, stats for Manly 144 metres (1st), 32 tackles (1st), and offload to Hodko for try. A quiet achiever.
