We’re favourites ( can you believe it ??)

We’re favourites ( can you believe it ??)

Considering how well we played, yes. The Tigers were pretty good though, unlucky to not come away with the win.

This isn't going to be an easy one, the tigs always fight to the end, after last week I think we can do it but we can't afford to relax at any stage, Go Manly

It’s a real test this week , but just like last game I think we can win !!

Could be anything this one. Tigers are very unpredictable. Could beat em by 30 or lose by the same!

Yep, still copping it from the missus (Tigs fan) from last yrs capitulation against them. Will be there at Bankwest so c'mon boys and shut her up for me

 

[Blucky]

Why the f@ck do we keep getting Chris Butler as referee ? He seems to be the latest in a long line of bought and paid for, Manly hating, NRL officials.

 

[Tomay]

Tough game this one. Tigers will look to bounce back and we might have one eye on the Panthers the following week.

I would be more worried for a loss if this game was being played at Leichhardt Oval. We always struggle playing there and they always play better there.

 

[WiseyEagle]

Beware the wounded tiger.

Yep 100% agree that it's better that we are not playing there. Could go either way as they were very unlucky and would be hungry for a win.

Scumtrell reeked enough illegal damage on the Tigers that could help us out.
I so wanted Burgess to drop that ball. The Tigers were the better side, except when it counted.
They’ll grow from that. I expect another argy-bargy game in the forwards. But Im confident our forwards will have their measure. Keppie doesn’t mind the niggle.
For the Tigers it’s always David Nofoaluma that worries me. He’s a bit of a non-Manly favourite for mine. Bit like Corey Thompson. Only little blokes, but they usually beat the first, and several more tackles. And they are great finishers. I noticed Madge has moved Nofo to left wing. Hopefully Tommy gives him nightmares.

Beware the wounded tiger.

Beware of the Resilient Eagle on the Rise

 

[BOZO]

We’re favourites ( can you believe it ??)

We are indeed favourites feathered friend . We have earnt our Winning Wings !

 

[QueefRichards]

Didn't watch the rest of the Tigers match but they were literally a finger away from doing Souths, so no room for complacency.

Wanting to see, at the very least, more of what was on show against the Titans

 

[Eagle thru 'n' thru]

Aloiai better fire up against his old team mates. This game will be a cracker.
Manly to win 13+
M.O.T.M Tommy
Garrick with 3 tries

He will Nofos defence isn’t always his strong suit.

 

[Tragic Eagle]

The Tigers are a bit of a boggy team for us we need to start well.

 

[The Wheel]

TLT 4pm - expecting no changes
