He has been playing well, our best forward by a mile at Blacktown. Still a littie lazy in defence and looks overweight but definitely adds a bit of X Factor off the bench. Id be surprised if he sees more than 15 mins a game

Agree Tom may not have made much difference alone however both him and Thomo was a big loss. I think we underestimate how good thomo is for us.

Whilst the loss of the injured players is sad for all concerned, I'm excited for the lesser lights grabbing this opportunity to shine 
It aint over for Manly in 2019

I think I mentioned before the game , that Smith will turn us inside out with his kicking game, due to the rain .
So we can loose this week then win our next 4 finals games without Tom and be premiers and loose the first 11 games next year but who cares we are the premiers of 2019
Sadly I agree with @susan .
Been one hell of a ride in 2019 and FAR FAR better than most expected.
But at the wrong time of the year injuries are going to kill us AND unlike the unlimited TPA clubs we just don’t have the players running around in reserves that are high first grade standard.
So proud of the boys and the resurgence coach Hasler gas provided but I fear we’ve got two games left and both will be losses.

While I agree probably next 2 games are probably going to be tough to watch
But you only have to look at 2014 semi against the dogs.
We were smashed so badly by Souths week 1 and had so many injuries no one I mean no one gave us at chance, yes we had snake coming back but we almost pulled off the upset of the season that day.
A home semi at brookvale oval you never know specially if we play either tigers or sharks, 50/50 shot at winning.
Think if we get to week 2 play Souths at ANZ stadium and give a good account of our selves then I can live with that.
I think we all can just see what a missed opportunity this season has become with the injuries.

Yep, it’s been a fabulous ride until now but it’s probably come to an end sooner than we’d hoped!

Sheesh.
Come on ya bunch of misery guts.
You do realise it's the last round of the regular season?
And we're playing our good friends Parramatta! Crikey, you want the boys to fire up every weekend and look it y'all here. couple 'o injuries and you're all wringing your hands (claiming to be realists no doubt) and not even firing up!
It's against Parra! Last round!
Plus you all know at the end of the season HappilyManly goes into hibernation and you'll all have to find your answers somewhere else? Better get asking!
Fire up ya whimps! I didn't fight in 3 world wars, dying in two of them to listen to you pampered tissue clowns complaining that a zombie just waddled off with your sunday best brain.
This...is...Manly!

Totally agree. We are going to have our best finish in years and we have people already looking at the cricket calendar. Look at who we have in our squad and how they are used. We can win the 1st 2 weeks of semis still with the injuries we have.
Still a lot of fight left here and I tell you we won’t lie down easy.
Bring on some dry weather and some slick footy! Anything can happen.

The finals in 2013 had Manly as also rans.
Rabbids were favourites till the Wolfman levitated
The best winning feeling ever
And we made the GF and only faded in the last 20 minutes of the 2013 Season
Even knowing the end result, I would never want to have missed out on such a truly heroic journey
Lets keep fighting Manly

Boyle was on Instagram eating with a knife and fork. Doesn't sound like news but there was fears he was out for season with broken arm/wrist. Still no reports on Gosiewski being out either. Elliott might be the only addition. Perrett as cover for Boyle/Gosiewski

Boyle was clasping his shoulder in the Tigers game as well as the Scumos one
Funny that the club hasn’t said anything about the injury to Boyle, makes me think he’s not injured!!

We still have two games to go at minimum and some are saying we are all but dead in the water . I don't know , that Elliot bloke goes ok as far as I know and Jetski will be playing . Whoever comes in May just lift givin the opportunity. It's along way from over and I'm sure Des and the boys are not throwing in the towel.

And don’t forget who will be providing tutelage feathered friend....
Not only Desmond the great but the mighty Prince of Brookvale.
He will have Elliot and Reuben Sandwich effortlessly sniffing for opportunities and popping expertly into the play.
I am ready for the excitement to come.
