Game Day: Raiders v Manly [Round 24, 2022]

[HK_Eagle]

Gee, we're in a bad way, injury-wise, when we only have a single big bopper on the bench. Forward rotation will be scary... although, perhaps they count Schu as a big bopper these days?

Will we even try today or give up again ?
I hate saying that about us.

Yep

No big boppers on bench

 

[Fibro Eagle]

Hope Weekes gets a lot minutes let's see what he can do with limited opportunities
GO MANLY

 

[Budgie]

Lot of changes to team. Burbo to centre. Aloiai to lock. Bullemor to second row. Walker & Weekes to bench. De Luis starting.

They’ve already given up , zero to play for , just playing because they have to now.

He must have been watching Marty’s Tik Tok

I agree how sad a situation we are in for.

Could be a very very long afternoon

Really looking forward to seeing Weekes show his stuff when he gets 5 min at the end when we're 40 points down. That's if he's lucky.

Perhaps it's one of those mad professor Des masterstrokes and he is going to put Weekes into the forward rotation to hit it up through the middle for 40 or so minutes...

 

[mickqld]

OMFG Aloiai at lock. That'll do me. Des has definitely lost it. Someone test him for dementia please.

 

[wombatgc]

90 minutes!!!

Bugger you and that bloody penguin. I couldn’t get that song you put up a cpl weeks ago out of my head…Noot, Noot, it’s the sound of the police! The other members of the household threatened to brick me if I didn’t stop singing it. And yes, I blamed it on you again GE.

Of all the things that drive me bonkers about Des, the holding of the young gun on the bench til the last 5 minutes is the one that absolutely does me in.
I can't believe he can't see the harm it does to both the player and the team. Not to mention us supporters!

It will be 50 + today if raiders really want it.

Crazy team selections today

 

[Wombat64]

Manly made me do it, I run out of @Wombat64 special sauce.
Have to sit through this game somehow

All good mate I take drugs and drink responsibly........

Lube early, lube well, lube often. Stay safe and enjoy the game. Should be funny.......

 

[Wombat64]

Someone here (@ricardo ?!) called him Trevor before, as in Trevor Chappell, the brother that couldn't play. I'm still wiping tears out of my eyes, a bloody classic

I actually think that's the best name ever...... it's so true

Yep lube right now we are in for a beating

 

[Woodsie]

True believers ? Hahaha. Also known as the dreamers.

I think it’s good for the player! They get a good nights sleep and don’t stress all morning pre game.
