Pre-Game Manly v Roosters [Round 20, 2022]

[Shoe1]

Tezza was married to Kristie Fulton too, wasn't he?

Did they have any kids?

I don’t know. Hope so

 

[winnyason]

Dust has settled and tbh the 7 I simply don't have much time for now. To not play with our season on the line. The backlash from fans and tbh the manly playing group will last for some time

 

[The Wheel]

Keppie out, Marty Playing - Fulton into 17

 

[ManEagle]

We could very well finish the season without a win.

Then again we could finish undefeated holding the trophy , looks who's talking rainbows now

 

[Smokin Joe]

Genuinely looking forward to this game

So am I,love to see the underdogs have a go,the greatest underdog story since David v Goliath....
Get the feeling some guys might really stand up.

I grew up watching the Amco Cup. Teams runnign out with half a reserve grade team, players playing out of position. I'm ready, let's go Eagles. The Roosters are cocky, listen to their coach who wants to be a part of it but says he does it the right way. Sure the bookies have wiped us. At least I am hopefully and expect an effort from our players.

 

[HK_Eagle]

The Replacements.

Perhaps we can get Keanu in?

 

[Yaz Eagle]

I’m looking forward to the rookies coming in and playing. They may well have a blinder.

I am also not holding anything against the 7. It’s their personal choice and it needs to be respected. The pressure they are under from their families is far more than playing 80 minutes. They would have got more backlash from their communities if they played.

It’s the management that are to blame for this shambles. They have known for months and didn’t once let the coaching staff or players know, except for those that did the photoshoot.

The longer this goes on the more I hope we show all those guys all the door.

 

[Sheikheagle]

Not sure if this has been mentioned but according to the Tele the club has told the players not to attend the match on advice from NSW police.

We have reached peak inclusiveness.

I've also heard a rumour that no one on Silvertails knows sh*t.

That would be more than a rumour, it's fact !

 

[Jerry1]

I'm sure the hand bag brigade

The longer this goes on the more I hope we show all those guys all the door.

That would be the back door....

It was through belief in your word that the Magnificent Seven boycotted this game and you wish to forsake them?

 

[eagle66]

That would be more than a rumour, it's fact !

Which reminds me of an oldie but a goodie and don't we need it,
The old guy on the factory line, a Greek/Italian/Macedonian/Lebanese/Turk (I am trying to be inclusive, just select one), was arguing with his boss and yells out, "you always say I know f*ckn nothing but I tell you mister, I know f*ck all.

We've still got Foran, so I haven't given up.

 

[deanm]

Is there anything stopping the 7 players stood down , playing for Blacktown this week ??

 

[deanm]

LOL, I will answer my own question. They have the BYE !!

 

[Jerry1]

Looking at the draw we have left and I can only see us winning one against the raiders. We won’t be playing finals this season which is disappointing. At full strength we had a shot at top four.

 

[Snake]

The Panthers have a great system and played without 7 rep stars and just beat the lowly Tigers. The Roosters are a much more formidable side. The upside is we have a decent spine (with only Tommy missing). Even with the infamous 7, we were going to have to play an outstanding game to win. Without them, I give us no chance. However, I will be proud of the team regardless.
