PRE-GAME DISCUSSION: Raiders v Manly [Round 23, 2019]

[BOZO]

Would love a 33 nil win to leap frog the raiders.

Every thing is possible . Keep that dream alive Sparty .

Who would have thought 40 nil destruction to the storm

 

[Ralphie]

Funny but I just think the Raiders will be a bit down after 2-3 big weeks for them and we will ambush them as a result.

Manly by 8 , and yes I’ve even tipped that way!!

I smell an ambush......

Don’t know why just think we are going to be slightly drawn into the niggle.
Hope I am. Wrong but don’t feel confident about Sunday

Raiders to lose by 12
They will try and draw us to the niggle but we will frustrate them and put them off their game and taunt them with our giggle
All year our triumphant team have been singing the same victory song proving the doubters wrong
Very confident of another Manly resilient win on Sunday

I'm now actually glad we are playing other finals teams in these last 3 rounds. True, we may end up battered and losing stars and being bundled out early.
Or, it may go the other way and we will be battle hardened, playing at a higher level each week and building an unstoppable momentum!
The 10 day break has been perfect for us, it is so reassuring that we have a coach who has been around and knows what it takes to play finals footy with success. I'm feeling pretty optimistic about this week, we'll play well.

Good point .

Nothing good comes in comfort zones .

We want to be mentally and physically prepared for the bloody semi final battles leading into winning this years grand final .

We want to go into the finals being battle hardened like Rambo warriors

Get ya signs ready . WE ARE MANLY AND YOU HAVE THE CLAP...

Been plenty of niggle so far this weekend as well, more last night in Grubbitohs v Donkeys.

I think exactly the same.

Warriors, the game we had to lose.

Tigers, the game we had to win.

10 days off, not in as yet peak form but building.

I have to admit it, Hasler is a master coach at this stuff.

Definitely true, 3 tough games going into the finals is excellent for this side under Des.

Captains run this morning

 

[SeaEagleRock8]

Looks a little brisk judging by the beanies and track pants. (Beautiful and warm today in the Blue Mountains but I spent the last couple of days on the Mornington Peninsula and it was absolutely freezing!)

34 degrees today here at the Bungle Bungles , I’ve stopped being a cheapskate and booked into the caravan park so we can run the air conditioning.

Mind you it was a chilly 11 degrees at 6am this morning but a far more pleasant 19 when I got out of bed at 8am.

This'll sound weird, but if you run into a fab blonde woman called Cat, who's towing a cute little caravan around the place and probably doing yoga, tell her Lee and Meredith say hello!!!

Will do!!

Never forget 1991 finals. Billy ripped us off. Kevin Iro was majestic. Cliffy won man of the match even though Raiders 'won'.

If you watch nothing else, at least stand and applaud as Iro sets up Stokes at 10m 55secs >
