Haha welcome back to

yay!

I know they had 5 origin players backing up....but I'll take any win...any time!

like the goodies!

Sharkies were well and truly ecky-thumped

 

[niccipops]

Pretty stoked with this result. Especially as it was in the gummy tank.
Go you good things.

Was on a flight to Melbourne unfortunately for the first half and was extremely restless and could not wait for the plane to land.

Raced off the plane knocking down children and old people in my way out the door (just jokes only knocked down old people... lol..). Turned on my phone and started whooping when I saw the score. Then I tuned in to listen to the second half on ABC Grandstand. Some of my work colleagues were subjected to me yelling out 'c'mon', 'yeah go', 'woo who' and other words on our bus trip all the way to our accommodation.

(Side note: I thought I even heard 'the Manly chant', towards the end of the game coming through on ABC Grandstand, great work Manly fans.)

Got to my accommodation and of course called my mum and she was ecstatic with the win. And then I just had a chance to watch the one hour game version on fox and wow, just wow......!

What a great game and well done to the boys, they played fantastically. Hope Siro, Walks, Kelly and Uate all come through o.k.

Go the Mighty Manly Sea Eagles.

Very much so....and it was even better being there to witness it and cheer them on

(Walks is fine - he came over and hi-5'd me after the game 😀)

Well done on getting to the game @ALinda, I was meant to go with my best mate, but unfortunately work commitments got in the way...!!

Were you apart of the Manly chant towards the end of the game?

 

[ALinda]

Thanks @Eagleheart - it was SO worth it!

Yes, part of the chant. It could've started earlier but I guess better late than never...

Is a cannon ball a bullet ?

It's a projectile...that may be more accurate. lol.

(You know...hollywood made me believe that cannon balls exploded on impact. I was years until I realised they were just big lumps of solid shot. - bastards!)

Good morning! Seems like only a few hours ago I was awake.

Still happy over the result.

it's 3am in Australia...where are you all?

pfffft, soft!

 

[globaleagle]

Is anyone else watching fox? Just after the Wright try, some bloke in the background could be heard saying 'we really don't want Manly to win this'.....
Was it only me???

Mate, I listened...rewound, listened....rewound....etc.......

And then realised I had the channel 9 feed.

D'oh.

If it helps.... I didn't hear the refs or anyone say anything untoward.

[southsideeagle]

I was at the game and was surprised (ok shocked) at the solid Manly support. I was on the hill at North western end and assumed it was "mixed" area of supporters. There must have been 30 - 40% of the supporters around me wearing manly gear. Then again maybe it was the sharks supporters just shrunk into the ground after 10 minutes. Mostly good banter.

 

[Bearfax]

Of course I'm anticipating the usual excuses, on this occasion that the Sharks had five players backing up from SOO. Cant allow the Sea Eagles to think they are worthy of their wins and position. There's always got to be some caveat

Yum yum.

 

[Shoe1]

Both of sirro's "errors" in the first 10 mins should have been manly penalties. First was a strip, second was a pretty heavy duty headlock crusher while the ball was dislodged.

 

[wedgetail eagle]

Early in the 2nd half, Perrett was penalised for a "second attempt" after tackling Luke Lewis. Moments later when Gallen did the same on Jake, Jake was nicked for a knock-on in the play the ball.
