Game Day: Manly v Roosters [Round 5, 2017]

[HappilyManly]

Well it's been sunny all day, so we may get a clear night for a fast track at Allianz.

Go Manly 28-2!

Debbie was a very slow moving TC, but once she got over land she speeded up massively.

The rain started here Wednesday night, but only very light.

Then got heavier as the day went on.

The eye went over Brisbane at 7pm, our place ( 40 kms south) only 30 minutes later.

We had light rain compared to many others only 250 MLS.

She's gone out to sea now so don't think you'll get any more today / tonight.

Oh I am, but there's always a way to get to silvertails, always

Looking forward to the game tonight with the talk about the roosters as premiership contenders be good to see where Manly are,, a good showing win or lose will show if we are a top 8 side
Go Manly

Potter!!

I think talk of the feather-dusters being title contenders is extremely premature. If they are then their coach is telling them they need to beat us convincingly to prove it.

The pressure is on them, and they will fail.

Stupidest time to play EVER.

I was really confident of a win last week but have a really bad feeling about this one. I hope I am wrong. I am nervous. I know, I know. I am a sausage roll eating dummy that should cut the pessimism. Mmmmm sausage rolls.

 

[globaleagle]

starts at midnight here.

Dunno if I'll make it.

If I wait until tomorrow....better half will be outta the house!

Maybe I'll wait, I'm sick of cheering silent cheers.

Ditto, I think they are better as a unit than we are currently, I do add " currently".

Most of the team have been together for a while , adding in mainly Keary who could easily slot into a good existing side.

I reckon that's the difference.

I'll be happy as a pig in mud if we can take it up to them, even if we lose.

Total capitulation is unacceptable, but I don't think we will see that.

Fingers crossed.

A good effort this week, win or not then beat Dragons next week and we are doing okay.

True. 4.30pm NT time.
Let's do the Time Warp again...

3/6 is a hell of a lot better than I thought before season kickoff.

I thought 2/8 was about where we'd be at.

Manly 1-17, Ferguson in for the Roosters.

 

[Paw93]

U-20s are getting absolutely smashed today. How are they this bad? 14-60 with 5 minutes to go.

Edit: Full time 14-66. Disappointing with the U20s having such a good start to the season. Let's hope the first graders show more heart.

 

[Mitch]

66-14 second highest margin in Holden Cup history!
