Pre-Game Panthers V Manly [Round 8, 2025]

[Waz13]

Some extra good news and for those that have been here for a while , you’ll know what I’m talking about.

We head off tomorrow on one of our annual trips away , not returning to June 30.

And for those in the know, that usually brings more wins , why ???? ****ed if I know but it has happened every year for the last decade.

All the best MFB and safe travels. Where ya headed this time around?

Out west to Broken Hill , then up to the Flinders Ranges , up to Coober Pedy , then across the Painted Desert to join the Oodnadatta Track.

Then we were supposed to be going to Innamincka along the Strezlecki BUT it’s currently flooded and could be for months.

So , well to work on a Plan B if that’s the case

Thank you, Mark.

You'd think we'd finally get a change now that Jake is concussed and will miss this game...

but....

Seibs is that reluctant to change playing Jake at lock for 80 mins even though he's no longer an 80 min player, nor a great lock option - that'll he'll probably send the team out against the panthers with 12 men only.

 

[Dion Johnson]

A few keen on Patolo in their respective team selections, from the games I have seen he has made Sipley look like Payne Haas.

Not many options in NSW cup, they will have to pick James as he is in the 30 man squad, don’t know how likely it will be to get an exemption to play the train and trial players.

Not even this can save is this year, thx for trying

We’ll have to win one eventually

 

[Eagle 1]

Oh Oh this could get ugly.

Our only hope is for the Chooks to take some Penrith players out, I know, it's not politicaly correct to say this. But it's our only hope.

Roosters playing Panthers into form ...we are in massive trouble next week

Easts don’t really offer that much as their record suggests. And don’t use the broncs win as any barometer. Broncs are in as much strife as us, and they can’t use being depleted by injury as an excuse. That said the team we are set to trot out v Penrith is beyond worrying.

 

[Brookie1973]

Panthers could actually be above of us on the ladder after they flog us. Doesn’t seem that long ago we were sitting 2nd and the panthers were being written off.

Yes prepare for deeper ramming 😮‍💨

It all changed after Dce came out publicly. His individual form has dropped considerably also

 

[BOZO]

The Panthers are not back to their best tonight
But they are back to winning and this should give them the confidence they have previously been playing with out

I’d be happy to get rid of him now tbh.
