Welcome to the:
"What just happened" round.
Dedicated to:
Bouncing back....hard.

Hello everyone!
Dear oh dear! Some saw it coming, some didn't, but it was hard to take by all! *Angry*

Did anyone tip a perfect round? - No!
Did anyone come close? - Well everyone seemed to get 6 from 8. 29 of us in fact! I'm guessing we all got the Knights victory and Manly's loss wrong (well most of us anyway).

However
, @Pommie Eagle and @castle eagle both got the margin spot on so they get an extra mention. Well done guys! You can both party like it's 1999. 🙂


The "It's still better to be a Manly fan!" Leader Board:
Eagle1188: 134 - Did a flying 2 kneed kick on us all. Melb Storm style.
Pommie Eagle:
130 - Wont let go. Hanging in there.
Tragic-Eagles:
130 - Is a perfect round too much to ask? (Yes, probably).
ALinda:
129 - Unleash the beast! Go for gold! Follow the cliche!
Clint: 129 - 5 points behind....can it be done?
Manly To Win!:
129 - So few upsets...it's hard to gain ground!
Wombat64:
129 - Last of the Mahicans. Though the movie spelt it Mohicans.
Andrew.. :
126 - Loving the smell of Lattes in the morning.
globaleagle:
125 - woohoo! False hope rules!
Eagleheart:
125 - Wot's this? Another woman! harumph harumph! (Go get 'em!!)
The Insomniac
125 - Once won a water balloon fight...with a penguin.

Well done everyone!

As always, the full leader board here:
"You haven't clicked here yet? Not once?"

Lol! It's true! But ok lets be honest...I don't want to write about me and you guys surely don't wanna hear it! (Though at least I know something about this member!) So it worked out well as I'm exhausted and don't have to think of anything to write!
I'll add one thing though...in the interests of fair play...if people want more, I'll write it! (lol - that'll mean people will have to read this far and actually respond...I'm safe!)

Edited

Born in Queensland but close enough to the NSW border to know better, ge grew up in a rugby league-less family much to his embarrassment.

He eventually discovered rugby in High school but this version had the word Union tagged onto the end of it.
Possing the ability to catch and kick and having enough fitness to last 80 mins, ge's style of play was to wait until everyone else got tired (or bored) then run around looking like a hero.
He soon discovered that other players could also stay fit for 80 mins and actually had skills so ge decided to retire, quickly.

Being a naive country boy it took the invention of the internet and then some years for ge to realise that there was a forum for Manly fans.
One night ge joined the official Manly fans forum only to find out that the very next day Zorba closed the whole thing down before ge even typed one post thus leading to the conclusion that the whole thing was all ge's fault.

After a forced move to Canada (be careful when you say "I do.") ge found silvertails.net on the 8th of October 2011 and the forum was changed forever.
With no nearby league fans and only a number of hats for company ge totally appreciates this wonderful forum as it keeps him in touch with Manly fans from around the world and helps him feel closer to the team and Australia in general.

Long may it continue.


Well Manly faithful, the bulldogs this week. Please, please, please can Santa or Trent bring us a win. I know the guys play for themselves and each other but I hope they know just how much we support them and ride the roller coaster (maybe even more than themselves).

Thanks again to everyone for reading.

Good health to you all.


Your friend,
ge


Go Manly! 🙂

I still read your updates GE, even though I've once again put the que in the rack at the 3/4 mark of the season, consolling myself that it's more a donation to Dan, than being able to tip for the whole season. Keep going brother, I get a larf everytime!

Aww..I never thought of that. I just tag you to see what I do for when you take it back over and do it next year!

Thanks mate...never give up! (Ok...mine's a donation as well.)

More more more. I want to hear more about GE.

Unfortunately Clint has been banned for a week due to *reasons*

GE lives in exotic locations and can fly planes. Reminds me a bit of James Bond 😉

lol. So close! - not. Just a couple of (huge)differences. (I'm overseas atm! Meaning I'm not in Canada...obv!

All the cool kids have moved onto last fan standing ( I have backed us this week....just to make it even more painful if we go down to them...)
 
Update!

Random member mention now included!

(All classified info redacted - all boring bits left in.) Sorry @Clint
 
Haha you caused the official forum to shut, that's a relief actually I'd thought it was my fault!
Nice bio btw 😉

Oops! At least this time I didn't say I'll crash the site and the next day it goes down (like I said a few years ago).
