Game Day: Sharks v Manly [Round 10, 2019]

[Ryan]

I think this is our strongest possible side that we can field at present time. Walker adds the x factor. Us by 12 and a double to Garrick.

Would you say this is our strongest team, full strength (that we can get back this year)?

01. Tom Trbojevic
02. Jorge Taufua
03. Brad Parker
04. Dylan Walker
05. Reuben Garrick
06. Lachlan Croker
07. Daly Cherry-Evans
08. Marty Taupau
09. Apisai Koroisou
10. Addin Fonua-Blake
11. Joel Thompson
12. Curtis Sironen
13. Jake Trbojevic

14. Manase Fainu
15. Corey Waddell
16. Jack Gosweiski
17. Magic Pudding

With Toff Sipley in for Magic Pudding if he were available? Maybe Hopoate or Suli for Taufua?

 

[Brissie Kid]

Manly bt Eels 64-0 the day after Nick Greiner won the 1988 state election. In the Manly fans on the northern hill at Parra Stadium (no seats back then) there is one guy waving a huge Vote 1 Greiner poster every time Manly got a try.

I fear the whole ScoMo vibe will carry the Sharks home today.

Yer that's a top 4 side and hopefully we are in the fight when they return. If Elgey steps it up today I think we can win this comfortably. Expect a big game from him mate.

Shut down Townsend and the Gummies will be rudderless. Our forwards are in form it's all up to our halves and DW to repay his debt to the club.

 

[Sue]

We'll win this.

I think it is time to render your now famous quote as on a par with the famous Mick death ride. Both are equally effective as a Manly weapon. Time to share the throne Mick.

Gladly. Anything for a Manly win. Gummies x 8 😵

I prefer Brads take on things rather than Brett Kimmorley's weekly, 'You'll lose this'

Not doing to bad of late . After what Des has instilled into this team and with a few players coming back , pretty hard to think we won't be in the fight .

That's it mate.

Agreed mate - Sharks are 80 minutes of effort so we need to be strong from start to finish. Elliott is getting better and more confident each week, Dylan will inject some enthusiasm and Garrick and Tofua are handy wingers. Throw in our impressive pack and I'm confident of a good showing. One of those games ladder wise if we lose not the end of the world but man if we win, really consolidates us in the 8 which would be a wonderful achievement given all the outs we've had. Go Manly

 

[SeaEagleRock8]

Des won't accept anything less than a win. He will only be talking to the players about 'the process' but everyone will know what he requires, 2 points.

Spot on Brad. If Kane has a mom performance we win but by Christ he needs to step it up big time. Time to toughen up mentally and have a red hot crack and back himself ffs - he has the talent but I question what's between his ears. It's DDay for him as far as I'm concerned. Get a win for us or piss off back to Blacktown.

Yer mate the key is our halves and if they have good games we win. Our forwards should take care of themselves.

 

[Bearfax]

Will Walker and Garrick score bag full of tries? Hope so.

Will Walker pass to Gazza - hope so

 

[TimmyQ]

Will Walker pass to Gazza - hope so

He gave Uate about 3 or 4 meaties one game. I'm saying 'yes' - be lovely to see Reuben in space at full tilt

or Miski

 

[Scorpio]

ScoMo has announced that he will be at Shark Park.

The real question is whether he will be at Engadine maccas afterwards.

 

[niccipops]

So on game day can you talk about the match, pre-match on the game day thread, or do you have to go to the pre-match thread prior to kick off?
Slightly confused.😵
Anyway, smash them gummies Manly. Scomo's head going to take up half the stadium. He needs bringing back down to Earth,
Go Manly!

Here's hoping history repeats itself & ScoMo finds himself in dire need in the dunnies at Engadine McDs sans papier de toilette lol
