Pre-Game Manly v Warriors [Round 13, 2022]

[Mark from Brisbane]

Fair Dinkum, how have we got Grant " My Dad played for Parra " Atkins as Ref again ???

Because he fair dinkum loves us !!!

Oh sorry I missed a few words there,

Loves “ giving it to “ us

 

[davohan123]

Atkins is our ref

I hate that the first thing I look at every week now is who is our ref.

Well get ready to be screwed again Atkins hates us more than Cummins.

Finally as said before let's see no look Joshua what your are made of , you want to play 6 well here is your chance.

Oh **** we really are screwed this week

 

[Kalvin]

We will smash the Warriors!

 

[Tragic Eagle]

I’ll be very interested to see how we go without DCE.

 

[ricardo]

I am absolutely gagging for this game. Should be a cracker and I am excited to see how the Schu can go in his preferred position!

Go Manly !!!

 

[ALinda]

If we lose this one, Nathan Brown is entitled to slap Des across the face.

And if we win, the Warriors fans might think Brown deserves the slap.

 

[Jerry1]

Two teams of similar capability.. Manly by four..

Won’t be GP as we don’t have a kicker !!

 

[Bradza]

Reynolds is on 700k and Hynes is on 600k. Both of them are playing much better footy than DCE and both their teams are travelling far better than ours 🙂

Reynolds is on $750k. Yeah right!

 

[Mark from Brisbane]

Reynolds is on $750k. Yeah right!

He probably is , on their cap.

And another $500k from the Thoroughbreds.

He didn’t move to Brisbane for peanuts

 

[Chip and Chase]

I’ll be very interested to see how we go without DCE.

I'm looking forward to seeing if Foz can unlock Guac and Koula on that right edge with some nice direct play and some decent ball playing at the line. That's where we can win it.

 

[mickqld]

....
This would be an ideal game to give to young weekes his debut but that’s another story !!

It would be wouldn't it. But alas we have a myopic dinosaur who doesn't feel the need to try something out of the ordinary in order to change the team's mediocre malaise.

 

[Eagle 1]

Surely Pesaka comes onto the bench, he'll be fresh and eager to please. Steamrolling runs from Tent will be the order of the day.

 

[manly al]

Type of game which should give Schuster the opportunity to show his talent as a 6 ., Still would not have minded Weekes getting a shot there but again guess that it is a good as time as any for Schuster to hit his straps and walk the talk for his longer term playing 6 ambitions . Also hope that Koula and Oloka -atu can get a heap more attacking opportunities and not be so limited with attacking options and get a bit more enjoyment out of their footy , must be feeling a bit frustrated with their relatively poor attacking options for a good part of the season to date . Still a good side on paper and should be in a slightly better position on the ladder but of course a host of reasons , some avoidable , some not why the side has generally under performed this season to date

 

[Chunkytuna]

Don't know if anyone has watched Morgan Harper's interview on the website or not, but honestly, that guy seems very disinterested. I know his demeanour is fairly laconic and laid-back normally, but the bloke hardly knew what the new stand at 4 Pines/Brooky was called and then had to check on the run that the place is called '4 Pines park'. I could be reading a bit too much into it but to me he doesn't seem that 'embedded' in the club or the 'culture' (even though I hate the use of that word in this context).

 

[globaleagle]

^ you're not alone. A few others 'on here' said that.

Hopefully he has a good game against the warriors.

 

[Brisbane Tragic]

I’ll be very interested to see how we go without DCE.

I reckon that will be the least of our worries - Foran and Schu will have some fine attack running off them.

 

[Tragic Eagle]

I don't see it as a negative I'm expecting to see an improvement.

 

[Terry Zarsoff]

He might do a no-look kick 😱

A no-look kick? That I would like to see.
