We can still make the Finals easily!

[SeaEagle9413]

We can still make the top 8 easily! We are 14th on the ladder with 10 points. Penrith are 8th on the ladder with 14 points. We are only 2 wins out of the eight. Only 2!!!! And there are like 12 rounds left. We just need to win games. Winning is key now. I don't care how, just start WINNING!!! It's not over, It's never over! The players just need to get into that grind mentality again. I don't think Trent realises how close we really are, and neither do the players. Bring on the rest of the season! This will be interesting!

8 from 11, and still to play Cows, Dogs, Storm and Raiders, who we'll lose to all 4

 

[wedgetail eagle]

Winning games? Who'd have thought, eh?
What a revelation.

Reminds me of the saying, if my aunty had balls she'd be my uncle.

What, do you mean all we have to do to get into the too 8 is win. Sheet has anyone told the players?

Honestly think top 8 thinking should be out the window & concentrate on a good performance against Titans....talk top 8 in 6-7 games based on what the team has earned at that point.

Saw the thread title and immediately thought someone's lost the plot.😛

Wonder if there is any chance of changing over to 60 minute games? Better for tv, better for the players, better for MANLY.

Trent doesn't realise, the players don't realise how close they really are .... To what? The edge??

We don't have a tough run home that's true and the tough 4 games raiders and storm are at home. However we just don't look like we can win a game right now no matter who we play. Old cliche take 1 game at a time beat Titans this week, stay injury free maybe get someone back from injury, good performance v cows who knows we might get some momentum going. It's a huge reach tho the way we have performed of late.

 

[Mark from Brisbane]

It's a huge reach thinking we will beat the Titans, let alone most that follow!!

 

[XV-1]

I will be happy with one in a row to start off with.

 

[weev]

Can we bribe the other teams to throw?

 

[NYEagle]

Well it starts and only starts with two wins in a row vs the Gold Coast and Cowboys and then we can sit in the Brookie hill with some hope again.
I don't see any other way honestly.
But one thing I will say is I do like the language out the club:
Penn has spoken about the high expectations of being a Manly player, and has started to pressure Barrett.
Barrett showed some genuine emotion at the press conference.
Myles indicated that he is more interested in improving for Manly than play for QLD.
Killer is making a return vs the Titans.
Jorge wants to bring the fortress back.
After initially having no interest in watching the next two games, I'll watch the Titans game now. I think the players and club do care and are determined to do something about this, unlike the silence we heard last year.
But, this is last chance for me and I'll consign Manly to the dustbin for 2016 if they don't change this pattern, and now. My nerves can only take so much disappointment.

dear forum member..., if we had another 30 rounds this year we are no chance of a top 8 team. IFFFF we did get in, we would get smashed by 50 in the first round of the semis.

Hmmm, well my Aunty is my sister in law........but that's another story.

A threat of gender re-assignment may be the only thing that will focus our rabble of players to play as a TEAM
