Game Day: NYC2017 GF - Manly v Eels

[mave]

Ch 9 too busy sucking Billy Slater's cok to worry about any Under 20's medal presentation.

 

[Michael Clare]

Well done boys!!
Held fast after being blown away early.
Parra's 2nd half defence was excellent and we did well to break it when most needed.


That bearded ref is excellent btw. Needs to be in 1st grade soon imo.
He has had a few of our games in a row and I enjoy the no bullsht demeanour.[/QU

I'm sure that Ginger beard had traces of Maroon in it!

 

[HoldenV8]

The referees were (and I have no idea which one was Gavin Badger's twin).....Phil Henderson and Adam Cassidy.

Congratulations to the players, coaches and all connected with this great little team who came last in 2016. They never gave up and fought back in true Manly style and finished stronger than their bigger, more fancied opponents. Your supporters are proud of your efforts.

You guys made my grand final day - first grade will be an anti-climax after this wonderful last minute win!!

This was our first U/20's premiership. The first winners in 2008 were Canberra.

I know, but it's Lottoland where only Manly exist. 😛

Manly's first and last NYC Premiership record will last forever

What a perfect finale. Beating the whinging worms at the death!! Fantastic performance coming from a long way down. The Manly spirit is alive and kicking. Beautiful win after finishing on eighth and wooden spoon last year
Nothing beats a manly grand final win. Wow oh wow, what an effort '!!!!

 

[Mark from Brisbane]

Full of admiration for their never give up attitude.

At 14-0 thought we were gone.

At 18-14 after all that possesion thought we were gone.

With 2 minutes to go and still 18-14 I knew we were gone.

But not the boys they NEVER gave up.

Fantastic win, by a great young team!

 

[Pittwater Legend]

Great effort. Thrashed multiple big shots on the way to the GF and proved that they could duke it out under pressure in the MIGOTY

 

[hozza]

And now that Iv calmed down a little....... fuc$ u parra, fuc$ u noddy u little midget. Lol at parra!!

Great great job, like many on here I thought we could lose by 50 in the first 10. But they showed enormous heart and won. I'm pumped!

Exactly, bearded refs rule. All the smart refs had beards, Socrates, Nietzsche, JC and ZZ Top, they should all have beards......we don't need any weirdos like Mao Tse Tung , Kim Jong-un or Kim Kardashian.

 

[Captain Moondog]

Actually Nietzsche never had a beard only a moustache, Kardashian had a moustache but she had it surgically removed.

 

[Seventy Two]

a unfortunately I missed the second half, I had a feeling we'd win after the late first half comeback. Congrats to the team and supporters!

 

[winnyason]

Gutsy effort we where always on back foot. Club is in good hands

 

[Captain Moondog]

a unfortunately I missed the second half

That's a terrible first post Seventy Two, however I'll give you a like to make you feel better.

Do you still use a typewriter Phil?

Wright has scored some awesome solo tries this year, I guess it's a good thing he backs himself. He overplayed his hand a bit but wasn't going to die wondering. His passing game is very good, he just needs to get some judgement on when to go himself. I'm glad we have him.

Congratulations to the team, what an effort over 4 weeks!
