Pre-Game Manly V Sharks [Round 27, 2024]

[Once Was Brissie Kid]

But - there is also one final little scenario (which is 1,000,000 : 1) but I love the idea.....

Cows and Dogs play out a hard fought, slugfest DRAW. they share the points (and keep their F/A)
We win vs Sharks.
We end up in 5th.... and play the winner of the Titans v Knights game!

I am not a betting man - but surely someone must have a crack at some sort of multi around that?
Cows and Dogs have to then back up and play again the next week!

I think you meant Dolphins v Knights, but your scenario is a cracker.

You could also throw in that if Raiders or Dragons win, they finish in 8th place if Dolphins-Knights is a draw.

8th Dolphins +7 28
9th Knights -48 28
10th Dragons -124 28
11th Raiders -129 28

So, Manly win, Raiders or Dragons win, plus the TWO draws, Manly (5th) get a home semi vs Raiders or Dragons (8th).

Get on it folks.

Unlike the last game I’m really confident

As with any other game this year - we can win it. Whether we do or not depends on which version of our team walks onto the field - the one that beat the Storm, Panthers, Dogs etc. or the one that got beaten by the Dragons, Tigers, Raiders etc.

Yep , frustrating isn’t it

 

[Eagle thru 'n' thru]

We need to ambush these gummies from the start to finish.

This game will be the Ultimate example of forwards winning the game and a fairly simple equation.
If we get Manly vs Dogs = we win
Manly vs Tigers = we lose

 

[Tragic Eagle]

This should be semi final footy a real arm wrestle.

Yes - apologies - i meant Dolphins rather than the titans
But i love your thinking! Its a crazy end to the year.
The NRL would be CRAZY if they don't manipulate the Saturday results..... Sunday viewing figures would be the highest in HISTORY!

Come on NRL - do your 'entertainment' thing!

This should be semi final footy a real arm wrestle.

If we manage to have a handy lead going into the 2nd half, the Sharks may not want to go on with it. With thoughts about playing either Melb or the Choc Soldiers the following week will be paramount in their minds.

Unlike the last game I’m really confident

That’s exactly why I’m not confident with this game.

 

[Terry Zarsoff]

That’s exactly why I’m not confident with this game.

I am thus confident that Mark is confident and you are not confident.

 

[Chunkytuna]

I am thus confident that Mark is confident and you are not confident.

Wise to confide in your ST confidants to convey your confidence.

Can't work out if Bully's neck is too big for his head or he just has a pin head. Either way, he is Bull-headed which is exactly what we want.

Sorry but can't see it this week. Our FIFO team will be off this week. We can't sustain the effort from last week back to back. Plus no Turbo means no Manly. Wobbygongs by 8.
