Pre-Match Manly v Roosters Round 22 2017

[Wombat64]

Having Checcin is a real concern, need to play by his rules tomorrow as we all know he's the star out there and his ego needs massaging!

Without being rude he is a **** head

Actually he wasn't a bad fella.

Our mutual dislike of the Brisbane Donkeys dominated much of the conversation.

I can understand that.

 

[Peter C]

If we beat the Roosters we are top 8 certainties and back into top 4 contention.

This is our most important game of the season for many reasons

Our points differential will keep us out of the top four race

Our points differential will keep us out of the top four race

We could claw a lot of it back against the likes of the Tigers, Bulldogs, Warriors if we hit some good form.

We could claw a lot of it back against the likes of the Tigers, Bulldogs, Warriors if we hit some good form.

Not the tigers, they are not a team to take likely and are not realistically performing like there spot on the ladder, more like a 10-12 position team.

Ok then...

Manly sacrifices risky attack to grind down a frustrated Roosters side to win the match 1-0 with one of the best defensive efforts of all time. Cherry-Evans sealing the win in the 79th minute with a field goal 40m out, 5m to the right of the posts.

Imagine that, I would die for a 1-nil scoreline to us tomorrow (in an exciting match).

Our points differential will keep us out of the top four race

unless the eels are the only team competing for 4th (should sharks and/or broncos fall)

Nothing is ever what it seems with team selections...Barrett has already shown his hand with late changes and positional shifts. Parker might be named on the bench and he may indeed get a run, but don't count out Tanginoa as a late inclusion given AFB is out. Baz sometimes waits until the 11th hour to make a decision

Good luck Tangy!
