Tom Trbojevic destined to be one of the greats

Fwaaaaark.
I'm sure it's for the best . But missing out on watching him play is sad.

Bummer. Brings Canberra into it a bit but we still should take care of them.

Raiders season on the line no Turbo brings them really right back into it. This game is now a 50/50 proposition.

Great challenge for the boys. A win without Turbo against a desperate Raiders will do wonders for the side moving forward. Turbo gets a freshen up as well - happy days!

Listen to me 🙂

Where’s my apology mate?

For what???

 

[Brisbane Tragic]

If Funa plays fullback that will do me! I am a Des fan and he knows more than me but surely not a hope!

 

[Damien2812]

This is the problem when Turbo is either injuried or playing origin why we must secure someone capable enough to play fullback as depth. The Faiders will be up for this game even more now that Turbo isn't playing. 😔

I reckon it will be Garrick....now Tom has killed my SuperCoach finals campaign...in reality I get the decision, but with how keen Tom seemed to play, thought would be there.
I guess if Manly do well, it will be a good build up to finals and much as we all like Tom blitzing the opposition, the no risk policy is fair at this crunch time of year

 

[SeaEagle21]

Oh well sucks that he is out but at least it's round 23 not 25 and Tom will be back and fresh. Top 4 would great and we are still in it.

Thinking we can still win this but if we don't then so be it. At least we are in the finals as opposed to the supporters of the teams fighing for the 8.

Let's go boys!!!

 

[MightyEagles]

I dont think Turbo was ever playing. You could tell by the interviews. It was all bull****.

I'm afraid to say Turbo is a liar

Happy days, and nervous ones!

 

[Eagles4Life]

Funa? Can't see that happening. Walker to fullback. De Luis to bench.

Did anyone else notice the secret handshake being exchanged here between these two temple brothers.

The big motivator for us is, revenge from the last meeting, we will have a mindset to win well without Tommy. The Faders will throw everything at us, as they look to get 7 or 8 in the eight. The last 2 games have nothing ridding on them, so in hindsight probably a good decision resting Tom.

 

[BOZO]

For me the big motivator for us is to prove that we are not just a one man Tommy Team and for all players to step up and shape up and show they can win without Tom .

I have to agree, Bozo. Would be nice to exorcise that monkey.

Yes feathered fried . We have to get that monkey of our back . Winning without Tommy will give our boys a big confidence boost heading into the finals

 

[globaleagle]
