Game Day: Manly v Panthers [Round 18, 2017]

[Budgie]

When I wear mine ... it just looks like the budgie escaped.

Just relocated!

 

[ALinda]

Yep, as @Spartan Eagle says, the Panthers will be smarting from last week's hiding. We'll definitely miss Jake up the middle plus complacency could get the better of us.

However, DCE has a point to prove and will be fired up for a top game. Wouldn't surprise me if he's MOM, again.
Go Manly for 6 in a row!

My goose of a Panthers mate just texted me and said Tom is out with a hamstring problem. Can anyone debunk this, so I can tell fim to **** off.

I can confirm you can tell him to **** off!

 

[Mark from Brisbane]

Hastings to fullback if so, but I'd say he's just taking the piss!

Note if Hastings is rested from the Reggies might in fact be true.

Hastings was cut from the squad yesterday, mate. I'm sure he's taking the piss, it would certainly be already out via social media etc.

Kev, you didn't have to tell us he was a goose ... we assumed that when you said he was a panffer.

We'll miss Brown and Myles terribly for this one. Panfers by 16

 

[Danly Manly]

What an awesome performance from our young boys!

Great defence, low errors. Good overall grinding performance.

Our fullback is awesome!

 

[SeaEagle21]

Blake Andrews in the Right Centre position is very impressive

 

[Danly Manly]

Manly 28 defeated Penrith 20 Holden Cup

Manly 24/28 completions.

 

[PONTIAN SEA EAGLE]

Spartan take it from a pontian we'll play simple football & win the game today.

 

[Fluffy]

we need to be on our game today, panfers would be hurting from last week and will come out fired up.

Thoughts on including Parker?

 

[Woodsie]

Parker. I may be being unkind to Lane, but I think it has to be a positive.

 

[FlyingHigh]

Lane is starting. Must be injury cover.

 

[Deleted member 26876]

I reckon Parker will do well coming off the bench for Lane (well if that is indeed the case), will be exciting to see

Isnt Parker a winger though?

 

[eagerbeaver]

Gee that's a much maligned backrow: Lussick, Winterstein, Lane.
This is where the panthers have it over us.
Two outside backs/utilities on bench? I think Parker will only get gametime if there is injury or a blowout in score.
