Post-Game Discussion Bulldogs V Manly [Finals Week 1, 2024]

[Waz13]

Tolu with a try of the year contender beauty...massive win stoked

Where’s Hibernian or whatever his name is?

 

[LeonardCohen]

Nice for Garrick to win a game with his goal kicking. It’s been a patchy couple of months but he nailed 4/4 none of them were sitters.

 

[NREagle]

I said to @Ryan after the match, look at the difference when we have two class halves and mobile forwards.

I LOVE that it is no longer all on DCE to be our creative spark.

And gosh I love Bullemor. The passion he shows when wearing our jersey is addictive.

That try from Koula. He hasn't had the season we'd hoped for, but that try he scored was all class.

And Haumole. Ten tackle breaks today. So strong.

When it mattered, we played with more composure. I loved it.

Go Manly!

 

[Waz13]

I've always been a Crichton fan, but he blew that out of the water today when his true colours came through!

Are you being sarcastic?

 

[The '47ers]

Are you being sarcastic?

No

 

[Captain Moondog]

Yeah, Bullemor's a gun.

Is Bully on report a problem will he get a suspension

 

[CollaroyJo]

Take a bow Manly.
That was brilliant.
I didn't get the feels until we down 18-22.
What a game.
Will have to watch it now without hiding under a blanket.

Me too

The niggle from Mahoney and Crichton and the general nonsense from the Dogs supporters, just makes beating them that much nicer!

God, I hope somebody asked Chricton how much he enjoyed his first loss to Manly after that game. Because it sure as f**k wouldn't have been as much as I enjoyed it.

He is an amazing player, one of the best in the NRL, but he carries on like a pork chop on the field sometimes. Even Jake had to have words

I think he will be fine. Chrichton should be suspended for being a cat.

He is the type of player you hate when playing against your team, but you love if he was wearing your colours.

 

[Ryan]

I haven't posted much, but I have to say, holy crap I'm happy. Defensively could have been a bit better. Some rocks and diamonds from some players. But we dug in that second half. The rughy league world was against us today. We would have had plenty of reasons to roll over but we didn't.

Get that up ya non Manly fans !

I almost cried in happiness, when we challenged that Olakau'atu going for the ball and won. They tried so hard to give it over to The Dogs, but it was just too obvious.

Hell yeah !

And @NREagle , sorry about my tantrums hahaha. Xo.

 

[LeonardCohen]

Is Bully on report a problem will he get a suspension

He is but I think he’ll be fine because it was a ‘catching’ motion, rather than a swinging arm and mitigating circumstances from Brooks whose legs tackle meant the attacking player dropped.

 

[mickqld]

No one will give us,a chance next week. Just how we like it. What a great week ahead.

He shouldn't be on report - non event

Yeah great point. That Captain’s Challenge was huge in the context of closing out the game. The Garrick challenge was also excellent because we scored off the scrum base to get back in the contest.

 

[Waz13]

And just like that , Soupie goes into hiding 😂😂😂😂

Until next game day thread v Easts. Surely Jethro can do something about that?

 

[Jay Eagle]

Manly Mentality...finally comes to life (thank you Seibs and Tony)

DCE- huge...and his agro showed just how much it means to him

Our Forwards.. played against an upbeat Dogs pack buoyed by the occasion and the crowd, they would have given the Storm and Panthers a run with that effort and yet our forwards just kept trying.

You saw then just how much it means to ALL the players.. great gutsy effort and belief.
I for one feel ashamed for doubting their commitment to the jersey at times throughout the season.

I think we forget the players are just human and have their good and bad days but really we as fans shouldn't doubt their commitment to the team and to winning.

Go Manly

Hey @Hibyemama where are you. You're a genius about Koula.
