The Daly Cherrygraph

I’m so old, I remember our bread being home delivered in the back of a Holden panel van. The back of the van was full of loaves straight from the bakers oven. That was also in the days of the paper boy, milk deliveries in glass bottles and the dunny man.
Those were the days my friend!!!!
 
Arthur should never see first grade again.
I doubt he will see much more. I'd be keen to see Walsh given a crack to be honest, just hide him on the wing on D if he's not up to the rigours of FG defense. If the Roosters can win a GF with Cronk playing with one arm we can give Walsh a taste of First Grade.
 
Cherry had an absolute blinder tonight.

His best game in years
Hopefully he comes good on his verbal commitments to having as good as possible a final year with Manly. If he keeps that form up then the premiership is still possible. The comp is wide open right now.
 
Im going to throw this out there. 2 points.

DCE did 90% of the kicking tonight. That's the first time in months it's not been Brooks as the preferred kicker. For me I think his lower back injury from that early round was a lot worse than the club or he let on. Not an athlete in my wildest dreams but my lower back has been blown for 20 years with disc issues and I can say even the smallest issue can sap the life out of you. From the moment he went down with that injury he hardly kicked either long or short. Definitely none of thise little deft grubbers into goal.

Secondly if there is some bad blood in the side regarding DCE leaving is it beyond possible that perhaps Tom and Jake are the catalyst? With both out tonight the team looked happier. They are obviously Manly thru and thru and you couldn't blame them if it was the case but that's 2 big characters that guide a large part of the team.
 
I love the clown Manly fan when Chez threw a cut out pass to Fualolo on the try line at 22-6 that did not come off…

“What are you doing Chez? Go back to Queensland!!”

We were only leading 22-6 BECAUSE of Chez you ****ing muppet… everything at that point had come off Chez and Hoppa (mostly Chez)…

I swear some people are so dumb that it amazes me they remember they need to breathe…
 
a lot will be said about Daly’s fine game tonight and deservedly so, but…the most impressive thing about it, was what he didn’t do, I.e go for cheap points out of yardage. Why he can’t play with control and get our team into the grind every week is beyond me. More of tonight, please Daly!
As others have pointed out, I am convinced his lower back issues have led to Brooks doing most of the kicking…

Chez pulled out some great spirals and high long kicks tonight that he has simply not been trying for a month or so at least…
