Post-Game Discussion Manly V Raiders [Round 3, 2025]

Ridiculous that the “Green Machine” is reduced to a couple of green stripes and a green advertisers logo on what would otherwise be a bulldogs kit…

Maybe a 'coco joy' sponsorship fell through.


lololol

I thoroughly enjoyed that game and one could only imagine what the score would have been if Tom had been fit. I am tipping us to crack the 40 once again vs the Eels

Tom would have added another 20 to the total especially in the first 20 mins.

I want us to crack 50. We have blown two golden opportunities to put 50 on opposition sides already.

On a different note…..anyone see the bloke from Nelson Bay who took his wife to the footy for their 29th wedding anniversary….. they got upgraded to a box?

 

[Wombat64]

Agh for simpler times when all we had to worry about was LOL @Eels and watching the footy.

Only just watched the game....for me..
Paseka was awesome,will be a loss
Tevaga was sharp,quick to dummy half,fast, accurate service,would extend and upgrade now with his defense a plus.
Taukeiaho was outstanding in the first 25,thought he was done,stick a fork in him at the Roosters,happy to extend if he gets through the first half of the season.
Ben T was strong,developing into that left edge,tackled hard,ran strongly.
Ola was Ola.....outstanding
Faulalo was smart and capable,really like him.
Saab seems to have some serious self belief and attitude,such a developed player over the years.
DCE...not a fan Boi,but not a hater,loved what he gave us,but realistic to see his weaknesses.
In that first half he looked like he was not on the same page as the side and looked in the way.
Stepping up and being the man after we are up 28-0 is not a mom game.
Don't think Fogarty is the answer,with the weapons like Ola,Garrick and Saab on the right I would be happy to see us develop a young guy there.
Thanks Cherry,but I think we will be fine.....
Bully....just get him signed now....FFS.

 

[Eagle eye]

100% agree on Bullemor. I wouldn't waste another minute not signing him up.

Bully has to be a Smokey for the QLD bench this year , once he gets elevated to that every QLD club will be chasing him

Hey Joe whats your opinion of walsh and large?

They are obviously plan A,they are talented and I think will complement each other,as you know,nothing is a certainty with juniors.
We are pretty well stocked and have a plan B and C and more.
Dowall,Alexander,Melrose,Davies,Morris are all talents coming through from Flegg to Matthews and 3 of those are local kids.

Haven’t heard to much on Callum Dowell, seen the Warriors game on Bar TV and he looked and played solid without anything eye catching.

Choc gave him a few compliments in an article on yahoo sports, what’s your take on him?

They canned the Flegg game tomorrow.
