Super-shame that the teams all had to leave for Qld right when we were going to go on a run of 4/5 of the next games at home (including the Dragons over the weekend).

Some crackers too with the Storm and Eels - both of which would have been awesome to cheer on from the sidelines.

We have an admirable record away from home this season though - and the local Sea Eagles supporters will undoubtedly cheer twice as hard for all us fans stuck in Sydney.

Adding to this, we are emerging as one of the feel-good underdog stories for 2021 - being the only team to dramatically turn around a disappointing 2020 to significantly shoot up the ladder. Our current improvement of 7 places on 2020 is the biggest upward move of any team.

I didn't feel confident the past couple of weeks, but this week if we name the team list we are all expecting to, I really expect a huge win from us. I'm always scared of the boys thinking it's going to be an easy win, but from the Bulldogs game I think Des perfectly prepares them mentally to not stoop to their level. Lets gooooo

Wests when tackled squirmed & wormed their forward off the mark so the tacklers couldn't get to marker. The referee helpfully obliged by calling out the Broncos tacklers instead of making the Wests player play the ball where tackled.

See example here:

I got a great feeling about this game. I feel confident we will run all over em. I can feel a 70 point game coming for us. God I hope I am right. Go Manly. I’m excited. Will be at home for this one and will view this game in the theatre room on the big screen. Hopefully a good sign of things to come.

It will be a long wait till TLT 4pm to see who gets named, who might miss out.

When do tix go on sale?

 

[mickqld]

Wow, 3 weeks early. The injury prediction list haters won't be happy about that.

I don't expect to see Josh or Jake named. When they asked Jake he said hopefully. That means at least 2 more weeks.

It will be a long wait till TLT 4pm to see who gets named, who might miss out.

The best ever Manly vs Tigers game. Rd 13 in 1987 at Brookie with 25K crowd & Rex Mossop. Tigers were in first place and Manly in second.

How good, no wonder we were premiers that year, we had speed to burn in our backline

It was a good watch, great behind the scenes look of what the coach and the team is thinking.

Similar to what the F1 do with Drive to survive they should do this for each team and show it in the off season. 1 team per week.
