Game Day: Manly v Roosters [Round 20, 2022]

[Bomb Voyage]

Hope everyone is lubed up for a reaming tonight. At least 60 points is my guess.

Usually you’re so negative, this optimism surprises me! Good for you big fella. You heard it here first, Manly by 60!

 

[Pittwater Legend]

If we don’t win the penalty count and get all the 50/50s then there are something really wrong with the refs

@Referee don’t royalty stitch us up for a 2nd game in a row.

Looking forward to another great game from Garrick.

 

[fLIP]

Given the circumstances I don’t see a win coming our way, but if those new blokes have a dig and the team has a red hot go with no apparent ‘excuse game’ effort then I’ll be more than happy.

After the week that’s been we just need a game of footy under way asap.

 

[globaleagle]

just have to channel some of that "nsw are always favs but Qld wins!" - spirit stuff.

 

[Woodsie]

Is everybody looking forward to the pre game chatter from the talking heads ...

I won't be listening ...

 

[Spartan Eagle]

Yep..my shipment just came in right on time.

 

[jbb/james]

with channel 9 running this i expect tracey grimshaw, fred nile, bob katter and a random gay dude with a small dog and a beret, to join the expert commentary team tonight,

kick off has been pushed back to 9.45

 

[Peter C]

Channel 9 are going to love this tonight, there'll be so many tries scored that they'll be able to fit in a gazillion commercials.

You predicting a score ??

 

[jbb/james]

hope the try celebration gets awkward

 

[Mark from Brisbane]

It won’t happen but despite what we see tonight I hope the posters frequenting this thread after 7.50pm are fair on these fill in players.

Hell of a thing they are doing.

 

[40 nil]

Not to put a mock on the result tonight, but the most recent example of our team being completely under the pump at Brookie was when we were missing several players & debuted a couple of players. The issue for that game was asbestos, not rainbows. It was a good result

Despite the Roosters being a completely different proposition to the Sharks, I remain 🏳️‍🌈 (i.e. optimistic)

 

[Will on the hill]

hope the try celebration gets awkward

How awkward? Sprinkler (makes a tiny rainbow), wheelbarrow (could be misconstrued) or full spit roast?

 

[Disco]

Always suprises me how often lube gets mentioned on here.

We'll probs lose by 30 but fingers crossed

 

[davohan123]

Probably will happen anyway but I wonder if tonight the DJ will play Macklermore Same love song.

If we can keep them under 50 that’ll be a win.

It’s going to go one of two ways

1) we play like men possessed and despite getting lots scored against us we hold them to something like 42 with maybe a consolation try right at the end to see us with 6.

2) or they dominate from the get go , with the help of the ref seeing 28 points scored in the first 20 minutes. Half time score 32-0. And the second half will be a scoring spree with the end score being something like 64 -6.

I cannot in any way see a win.

If it ends up say 32-6 that’ll be a win in it’s own right.

Roosters in a mood by 60+
Roosters playing normally by 40+
Roosters having an off night roosters by 20+
