Game Day: Tigers V Manly [Round 24, 2025]

[Mark from Brisbane]

I do love how you're always more positive about Manly than most actual Manly supporters, TJ.

Although that’s not uncommon, we ( for example ) would be looking at the Bulldogs with rose coloured glasses whereas you go to the Kennel for a look and they are up in arms over most of their players performances.

 

[Chunkytuna]

I think $2.20 for the tigers is a pretty good bet! Gamble responsibly.

 

[Mark from Brisbane]

Well I'm guessing we will all know how this is going down by about 2.10pm this arvo , as you can usually tell after about 10 minutes.

Expect the worse , hope for the best , that way you aren’t disappointed.

LIGOTY.
Neither team can make the finals. Playing for 'pride' but there is not much evidence of it on our side.

Don’t forget “sack Laundy”

Rather, take out the Laundry would be more fitting.

Easy really, no emotional investment means TJ can put forward rational opinions. #headoverheart!

They are , for them 2025 has seen a fair bit of improvement , they could be 11th later today and a long long way from spooners.

I think injuries for us is a huge factor , if we had all our forwards on duty we’d be competing for a place in the finals , even with the Chaser phoning it in.

I think logistically our playing group know we are ****ed regardless , and will play like it as there’s nothing to benefit busting your arse at this stage.

At the point now where I’m just going to enjoy the games knowing we aren’t making the 8 and there’s only 4 left for the year. Have a bit of fun and laugh if it’s ugly.

Finally out of that 4 week period of tough sides. 1/4 is about what I expected. Competed fairly well for the most part last week against top of the table away from home, maybe it isn’t as bad as it seems.

Thinking back to last time though, took us 39 mins to score against these guys at home. Today we are away at a ground we have an 0/3 record at, their side is significantly better since.

I don’t really know how today goes but I have low expectations. Hope Navale has a big game, that’s about all I’m looking out for. Hoping for some of that winning feeling!

If they're playing for pride then the Tigers will put 60 on us. The Manly Way , haha I think it's time to re-examine our pre season virtue signalling charade. More like The Mediocre Way.

Manly by 16 plus.

I will be disgusted if we dont put our best foot forward today.

We dont have to win but try our hearts our just like last week vs Raiders. Sometime your best isnt good enough and thats OK.

We actually played pretty well did much of last weeks game.

We were always going to get run down by the team running first but I though we showed some ticker.

I hope to see that same ticker today.

Can we win with dce sandbagging and a clocked out coach?

I’ll agree on the Chaser but what makes you think the coach has clocked off ??

 

[Brookie1973]

“just show some ticker”, “sometimes your best isn’t good enough and that’s ok” - geez, it sounds like Seibold has infiltrated ST’s. As the legendary Al Davis used to say, “just win baby”.

 

[Sheikheagle]

I just hope seidud has us primed to
Unleash our weapons today.

 

[NYEagle]

We get put out of our misery today. Tigers are pretty average at best, but we are less than that.

Maybe it is for the best. Better we lose out the year and amplify the massive problem already there than just miss the 8 on for-and-against and claim bad luck because we lost Paseka-Ola-Aloiia etc. I've had a gutful of it.

I feel that DCE, Brooks and others quit there passion for the club around round 4. I have seen little to feel differently, and the team is virtually unwatchable. I'm looking forward to massive media exposure, crisis meetings, takeover by the Ballin-Watmough faction, and new people involved in fitness and recruitment.

Unless we go big now, prepare to be hearing about the emergence of the Northern Perth Falcons playing 3 games a year out of Grizzly Park Brookvale and North Sydney Oval iconically located on Falcon street.

Play like we did last week and we win.

Can they?. We will find out today.

If nothing else a fun game to watch.

The fact he has said he's not a career head coach while positioning himself for a consultancy role is evidence to me that he has clocked out.
