[globaleagle]

GAME DAY!!!!
​

Could be a ripper!

Go Manly
Go Manly
It's your birthday.....

 

[Go manly]

Go Manly says
Go manly

 

[Uk eagle]

I'm not expecting too much from this one so any good performances from any of the lesser known players will be a positive. Plus a continuation of last week's backs to the wall effort should at least put us in with a shout

 

[Dion Johnson]

Rain forecast could work for this team, looking forward to watching Brooks standup in this one.

 

[Stuey Davis’s Socks]

Go you good things. Embarrass those bunnies.

 

[double hoops]

Keep it very simple this week. If the new blokes go out there thinking they don't belong. It's 50. But if they go out there without any fear, run faster, and tackle harder.

 

[The Wheel]

Nothing to lose, have a red hot crack

 

[Disco]

Gonna be tough but we could really do with the two points this week.

 

[Pete W]

These are the games I live for. Rip in Manly

 

[Rosko]

Going to the ground I hate the most in pouring rain to watch a team with Karl Lawton playing halfback get flogged by Souths. What could be better? 😵‍💫

 

[hozza]

Big ask to win tonight, not expecting a win. But really excited to see the new faces in the team. Rip in boys, grab this chance.

 

[ManlyTragic]

hey Rosko… you are either
1 very loyal, or
2 very crazy
…. It is cold and wet out there!

Just sayin’

 

[stoodamire]

I’m thinking maybe a sneaky positional change or if one of the forwards get ruled out.

Talau to 5/8. Lawton to an edge/bench. Paulo to the wing.

 

[Waz13]

Got a feeling we will get the win tonight. Souths are crap.

 

[manlyfan76]

I'm confused, do Souths fans cheer for the rabbit or the rabbitoh?
Cause they don't like each other

 

[SeaEagleRock8]

I’m thinking maybe a sneaky positional change or if one of the forwards get ruled out.

Talau to 5/8. Lawton to an edge/bench. Paulo to the wing.

Paulo has played 5/8 in NSW Cup... but I have no idea what Seibold's plan is! Kicking game will be very important if it's wet, maybe that is one consideration.
Anyway - Go Manly!

Took the dogs 2018 sgball team to the GF (5/8)

 

[Disco]

Just on Souths, definitely improved form but they are not the powerhouse some seem to be making out.

Won 3 straight but the first was against a struggling Eels without Moses and Gutho. The second was the Titans and the 3rd a good win against the Broncos with Latrell on a tear.

No Latrell, no Murray.

Now don't get me wrong, they have definitely improved, are deserved favourites and we are certainly up against it.

But it is not a lay down misere. We are in it.
