Just one win might get their mojo back!

You would think that's all it would take, mate! And I think they can do it.

Although I also thought they would of kicked on after their win against the Roosters and that didn't happen!

I have hope but the realistic side of my brain says no chance.

But yes one win is probably enough to restore confidence.

Surprisingly this has become manly's MIGOTY. We need to show up, defend defend, defend, defend, play for 80 minutes, belt them, belt them, rip in and win

 

[brad]

We will win this easy if they go in with the right mindset.

 

[globaleagle]

Yay!

Go Manly!

Round 23 A St George Illawarra L 18 - 32

Warriors will win by 10
Sorry but we are shot ducks
No way are we even going to get close on Sunday
Then next week against the panthers that could be a blood bath, no way we will get close to them , the refs won't allow it.

 

[COMMANDER]

They can smell the fear on Manly in Auckland.

We ain't Cronulla @Mark from Brisbane nor anywhere near their quality. Just glad I'm working on Sunday and won't have to sit through another shambles.

Last home game of the year for Warriors, so expect them to come out fired up to try to redeem some credibility after a terribly disappointing season.
That is why we'll need to be good to win.

I think you are right but my point was I never expected them to win the comp at any stage last year.

I said they had a crap roster but they won the 3 matches that mattered most.

Pretty strong line up 'on paper'

Wouldn't surprise me to see Foran as a late withdrawal.

Getting one up on their forwards (no longer their strength) and minimizing their ruck speed and off loads will be the key to winning it.

Surprisingly the warriors actually are one of the better teams in regards to completion rates and low error counts so we won't get much from them in that regard.

 

[Nuts]

If the team sheet reads Kelly in the centres we are in for a long afternoon again. He needs to be given time in NSW Cup. My preference would be to place Brown or Winterstein in the centres and the other take the backrow position.

Bloody strong line up. This could get ugly.

Yep and yep and yep.

We seem to just find a way to beat the warriors. They're the one team we have the wood on consistently, similar to the way the squeels seem to have the wood on us in recent times.

It's a strong line up, they have two halves in their extended bench so they must have some reservations over Foran I would imagine.

I'll give you the tip last time we played them in Perth they scored two tries in the first 10 minutes through our left edge defense. You know where they'll be going again.
