Game Day: Raiders v Sea Eagles [Round 4, 2018]

[HoldenV8]

If Siro is out I'd prefer that Lane be still used as a bench prop and either Winterstein or Gosiewski into the back row.

If Tom is out then Hastings is the obvious choice for fullback. But does this give Brown a reprieve? Or should Tom Wright get a run as the utility?

If Tanginoa is out, Lussick or Sipley I'd imagine.

Either way its going to cause a bit of a shake up. Good thing that the next game is against the Tits. I'd hate to be playing the Warriors or St Merge next week the way they're going.

WTF we playing in Gladstone for??
Well probably have more supporters there than the tits.

Commonwealth Games. The Rugby Seven's are being played at CBus. The Tits have had to give up around 3 home games for the poor mans Olympics.

Would be a real shame to lose Siro...he played really well against the Eels and was looking the goods again tonight...that offload to set up Tom T's try was brilliant. He looked pretty dejected in the sheds.

 

[ALinda]

Just watching a replay and Jake's try reminded me of the great backing up skills of the legendary Fred Teasdell....
Minus the yo-yo.

And what about Beaver...reminded me of him

 

[Spartan Eagle]

Loved watching wicky give himself an uppercut and squirming at the presser. Makes the win more enjoyable.

Yeah sironen just looked like ACL. Id be surprised to hear its just medial ligament

Yeah, many medial injuries stem from impact(I currently have one). Sirro's was a twisting injury so lets hope for the best.

 

[Kevinward777]

Early days. Team hasn't settled yet Croker still finding his feet. Walker to come back in. I think we look fragile at times in defense and jury still out on Kelly at center. Would love to see a fit and mentally focused Moses Suli at center. We'll be rocks and diamonds for a while yet.

If Suli kicks on, our backline will be off the charts.

Wish i could watch the game

14 hours of bored stiff travel says it’s unlikely though

 

[USA Rugby League Fan]

I still had a lot of confidence after their early try. Turbo was fantastic. That was a wonderful game. It was a late one for me I was up until 3:30 AM. Well worth the insomnia. Go Manly!

Poor Chez having to answer dumb questions about Cap
'I knew that somehow the media will find a way to link my name with the story'

At the Raiders presser, Ricky ripped into his mob.
He’s distanced himself from the team, no longer saying ‘we’ or ‘us’, it’s them.
It’s all their fault.

True to form with Ricky it is always someone else’s fault and not his

Well I'll be at the rugby 7's. Expecting a decent spectacle.

He always does that when he is over it.

 

[Shoe1]

What's happened to Manlys medicab?...Sirro shouldn't have had to be escorted all that way with a serious injury.

It was seized by the nrl

 

[brad]

Looks like weve almost helped another coach lose his gig only a matter of time for sticky

We sent Fittler and Brian Smith packing .

 

[Terry Zarsoff]

And poor old Chris Anderson.

 

[globaleagle]

Hooray! Finally got to see the game.

No one did the YMCA dance for me. Boo.

Sometimes I shake my head at the "Have thought- must post" lack of filter in game day threads that we all have, but it does make for entertaining reading when you read it all at once.

It's a pity that some get a bit negative after a win so quickly. (esp those that are fans and not trolls, presumably).

It's like:
Pre game: we're gunna lose, that's just how it is
Post game: we won, yay!
Post game + 1 millisecond: wont make the finals though/gunna get smashed next week/etc.

But keep posting what you like. Generally even **** opinions are allowed.

Thought it was a good game, a good win and hopefully more of the same next week!

Go Manly

Don’t rub it in. I’m currently quaffing whiskey in the delta lounge in Philly waiting my next flight and wishing I could watch it

Maybe he is mentally preparing himself for his next coaching golden parachute?

This latest one will pay for extensions to his Jerrabomberra abode.

OK, I am making the last part up.
