Guts and Attitude - Almost Best Ever

[maxta]

That will do me.
What a crazy game won purely on will and desire....and touches of class at Key moments.
Up against ALL odds and kept turning up....even when it looked a shot result - to a man - they dug deep and got the result.
Some love the big 40-50 point victories and I am one of them....but give me a gruelling contest that comes down to a victory built on Attitude and comradery any day !!
Shows when you play your heart out and give 100%... the little things can swing your way and make those almost impossible games - turn in your favour...well played boys!!

**** yeah !!!!

 

[Under the Sticks]

Stats alone said we should have won it but in Golden Point it is a lottery. Glad Raiders played dumb after 80.

 

[COMMANDER]

One of Manly's best and most enjoyable wins.

PS I have grown tired of waiting for Snake's official retirement so had a crack at updating my avatar pic in the fullback theme

 

[Utility Player]

Never has the saying a game of inches been more apt.

The Paulo no try by about a bees todger

Walkers missed goal

Croker off the upright and out

Walker off the upright and in

WHAT A WIN

 

[bob dylan]

I'd rate it as probably our best win in the last 3 years.

Had things gone against us at the end I would be almost as proud.

Super effort.

 

[The Eagle Has Landed]

Was a super effort.

 

[mave]

We played tough enough to be satisfied win, lose or draw.

Great to see an obvious game plan from Barrett, finally.

 

[SeaEagle21]

Sticky losing it when Walker got the winner was priceless, he'll find something to whinge about dw

 

[Eagles4Life]

Fantastic gutsy effort and result. Best news I have had in three weeks after losing almost all in the floods. Looking forward to more of the same next week.

I still have really fond memories of 08 in Canberra.

Cuthbo sent off 30 minutes in yet we flogged them.

But the best was having a bus chanting and singing the entire way back to the city afterwards, I swear some of the green army were getting into it as they had no culture back then, now they have the clap.

Some great wins down there over the years, have won 7 from our late 8 if i heard correctly.

 

[PONTIAN SEA EAGLE]

Just goes to show if we can focus on that 1st 15 minutes & not concede tries we'll win games.

 

[Wombat Legacy]

Where is sooky @susan . Go support another team until our halves retire you dipstick.

 

[ManlyMit]

It's really satisfying getting those wins that come down to the wire and can go either way, really shows a lot of character.

 

[ALinda]

Yes it was such a gutsy win. Although our execution in the 1st half left a bit to be desired, our completions and awesome defence through the whole game got us home

Wish we'd play like that at Brookie!

Not sure why people do this kind of ****.
Let me tell you, it shows more about you than it does about the person you are having a go at.

Aaah ****. I hope its all going ok for you buddy. Hope you were able to save the irreplacable stuff. Best news is your safe and well mate (and hopefully family). If there's anything we can do as a community, holla.
