Pre-Game Manly V Warriors [Round 27, 2025]

[Eagle 1]

Interesting to see the mindset of the warriors and Will Warriors now rest a couple as it now is just a nothing game

Agree, now knowing they can't make top 4, the hunger to win won't be in their belly. We get of to a flyer and it'll be over fairly quickly.

Tuipiki and this Kalani Going will come in surely.

No top 4 and home final assured for the Warriors.

Ain't making a 80 point difference though....

Well, if they do win again there's nothing more certain than Canterbury will find the cash to buy some of their remaining stars.

No doubt

Tanah Boyd to give dollar$ an absolute bath, to the point that grimace has to put the Wonder Boy Joey on earlier than his expected last five minutes who scores the winning try. Post game, dollars grabs the Fox microphone from Joey( who Fox are throthing over as the next superstar, bigger than his brother Reece)….as D$E tells all the viewers to go and get farked, and wait till you see me carve up in the Roosters cup side next year.

Now that would be an interesting finale wouldn’t it

Big Nelson out for 3-4 matches , and Romey with a busted wrist , think that’s put the Drizzle potentially out of favouritism.

 

[manly al]

No doubt Jazz to spend some time as a prop but is going to need a bit of a rest so is the plan to give Burbo some time there
Or Bully and T K O are going to have to play big minutes there
Maybe Brooksie will have a bit of time at 9 at a latter stage to give Joey a run unless Simpkin can do a full 80 again
Can only see Schoupp as an edge unless needed in the centres at some stage
Most unlikely scenario ,Brooks to 9 but Walsh is going to get a run at some stage , injuries or not and maybe a bit out of expectation with Burbo having some time at prop but certainly limited prop options on the bench this week

 

[manly al]

Be very pleasing to finish with a win but in some ways of course also , would just add to that bit of disappointment level in that Manly were able to get fairly impressive wins over Storm , Panthers Raiders and Broncs and getting the better of the Warriors tonight [ who i am sure will still be going for a win , ] would just indicate that playing their best footy and relatively full strength , Manly would not have been out of place in the 8 either
Think that Manly at their best also could better the Sharks in 25 , Roosters for a few games against them now , a bit more daunting for some reason

 

[manly al]

Forgot the Dogs , great win against them almost 12 months ago in that semi but naturally really found wanting against them this year .
Hopefully a one off in terms of Manly not measuring up and far from their best and not full strength and also hopefully can be atoned for next season when they meet

And paps out next week due to concussion protocols
