When are we Gooornne ?

[Rafferty]

The sad part for myself right now is not even contemplating finals footy and doing the math on what we need to avoid the spoon...
The good old days I used to way up our main opposition for winning the comp....these times I get excited seeing how bad Cowboys, Dogs and Brisbane are playing, with the hope 1 of these sides can beat us to the spoon....

That pretty much sums it up Maxta, I share your despair, its devastating WTF.

I doubt it very much that Tom will be playing origin unless he hits sensational form on his return, as for Jake, well he can't be picked on form unless Fittler is blindly loyal to him.

I reckon if tom strings some games together he make a case.

Did u watch the Broncs dogs game last night? I can’t see either of those 2 winning another game, unless they play each other again. Tgey are another level of bad to us even

Yeah and when they play us they will win. We have a knack of making crap teams look good and them playing into form.

May I refer Manly you to:

MANLY 2013 to Now: A Study in Winning a Wooden Spoon

...a sad yet informative script...

 

[Woodsie]

To put the task of winning say 59% of remaining games after a loss in rd4 into perspective ..

Since the return from Covid and under the new rules ... we have won just 28% of the 21 games ....

You have to prove your more useless than a heap of useless sides. You also have to be the sides 14th and 15 th are looking forward to play to increase there for and against

I gave up trying to get the point across that a team doesn't win it so kudos to you for trying.

It's like saying someone 'won' a VC. Nope, they were awarded it.

(I also try to convince Nth Americans that aussies don't drink fosters, but it's a losing battle).

@Woodsie - for some reason I always read this title as "When we are gone." #imadoofus

Makes me think of the Toronto wolfpack. "Yeah lets teach Manly a lesson and give them no money".......... "Hey where'd Manly go?"

So right now...

Check, check and... check!

We are on target to finally 'win' something!

...yay...
