PRE-GAME DISCUSSION: Manly v Titans [Round 19, 2020]

[John Nicholson]

No chance of Tom playing wing.

I tend to agree, however shuffle them however you like.

I'd rather Tom sits it out for the season.

 

[Bearfax]

A Trble

Sounds awfully like Star Trek's Tribbles. Or were you suggesting for other teams they would be 'The Troubles' (no disrespect to the Northern Ireland issues intended)

 

[maxta]

I wonder if Ben Trjobovic will get a run alongside his brothers sooner rather than later

 

[Tragic Eagle]

Could be Saturday!

A treble of Trbojevics could be terribly troublesome to teams trying to traverse tricky terrain of Brookvale turf.

Triffic!

T-rex?

 

[StuBoot]

Seems to be cryptically and not so subtly saying that Ben will be debuting this weekend - Given the fact the match means nothing and Tom will also be coming back added to the fact it is our last game at Brookvale for the year (and an afternoon game which is great!), I wouldn't be opposed to seeing how he went!

She didn't say he was playing, just mentioned that all three were named in the 21.
The rhetorical question was then asked re the collective noun.

 

[court83]

if tom plays, manly by plenty
If he doesn't, will be the same story as dogs and tigers games, close and could go either way..

In my punters club I took the risk.. 15 on tommy to score paying 2.60
And 5 on funa to score/manly win 13+ paying $26

If tom plays, both very likely to get up, as he and funa would carve the titans up

Yeah give him a shot NOTHING to lose and the crowd will go WILD ( well the crowd would do their best given the numbers ).

Thats potentially optimistic given Croker is the current 6 and Levi will be playing 80 minutes.

Yep first game I get to see him play live this year, we can’t keep him in cotton wool forever.

I must admit I was one of those who didn't want Turbo to come back this season, mainly because I feared he may injure himself again, based on his history & a feeling they may have been rushing him back in time for SOO.

I've changed my mind however, as many have said, he could injure himself in this week's game or in the first round next season so there's no point in sidelining him for fear of something going wrong.
