[globaleagle]

Wait a moment...

it's friggen game day!

wtf Jethro?

Go Manly!!!!!

disobey your bosses tom and go for a run!

 

[davohan123]

Let's go manly

Let's win without turbo and prove we are not a one man team.

Manly forever!!

 

[Dan]

Walker in fullback, please for the love of god tell me its not true

 

[Budgie]

With Turbo out I'd still be confident if we had Schuster. But no Turbo, no Schuster, and a returning non fullback at fullback. Fingers crossed really.
Certainly wouldn't withstand a Newcastle penalty count. And I feel like we've already used the Bozo emotion.
Hmmmm.

 

[ALinda]

Hopefully DCE will come out wanting to redeem himself after the flogging on Wed, Jake will have plenty left in him to tackle his heart out and there'll still be some Bozo emotion to drive them to get a win....hopefully. Go Manly!

 

[Woodsie]

Got to admit I am nervous ... Rip in Manly !!

 

[Mitch]

Article on Kurt, some great stats from his last game - I'm sure he'll rip in!

His last game for Blacktown was in Round 12 against the Knights. He ran for 217 metres, had 71 post-contact metres, had a tacklebust and made 38 tackles for zero missed.

Got to admit I am nervous ... Rip in Manly !!

Me as well.

the whole footy world (almost) has been telling us how amazing and vital tom is for Manly...

and tonight he's 'aving a bludge, I mean rest. It's well reported he wanted to play (reported by him) yet got "over-ruled"

So I just wonder what team will turn up.

 

[globaleagle]

Kurt's debut was headlined as:

Des hands 105kg beast NRL debut as Manly

Beast!

Have a great debut de Luis

 

[47MVEagle]

Hopefully Des moves Garrick to FB & fits Walker in the backline somewhere before kick off.

What about Walker & Suli inter changing on Garrick's wing?

It would give Suli a chance to show how keen he is & Walker the opportunity for some match fitness after being out injured.

 

[southsideeagle]

Looks forward to seeing how Kurt goes. He appears to going a great help in defence. Typically the final team selection is made at start of week and the silly buggers are played with supporters.
Kurts parents coming over from WA so not last minute selection.

 

[Woodsie]

Can't be too hot ... no highlight reel with head banger music ...

Congrats Kurt .. rip in son !!

 

[Simonmyers11]

If we are serious we should really win tonight even without some of our big names. There are more then enough good players in tonights team in pretty good form to get the job done, especially at home. Im nervous (but isn't everyone before a game) but we just need to start well and play mistake free footy and we should come away with the 2 points.

 

[The Who]

Can't be too hot ... no highlight reel with head banger music ...

Congrats Kurt .. rip in son !!

Wonder if they could make a highlight reel comprising good tackles?
How different and refreshing would that be!

 

[Sheikheagle]

I wonder who drops out for him. I’m assuming burbo or suli

 

[ManEagle]

Alot of focus has been on Turbo not playing and fair enough but our backline is intact except for him and have Foran and Haumole coming into the side that lost to Newcastle. With the biggest out being Cummings.
Keppie out is dissapointing but hopefully the boys fire up for Bozo.

We should have the cows measure.

Go Manly !

 

[Bubbler]

Can't be too hot ... no highlight reel with head banger music ...

Congrats Kurt .. rip in son !!

From all reports he should have incredible staying power and ought to last the full 80 minutes. There have been some concerns about his ability to finish however.

 

[Shoe1]

Expecting a big game from foran

 

[Bearfax]

Hate to be a wet rag, but I'm seriously concerned for the Sea Eagles in this one. No Turbo...arrrggg. No Schuster...aaarrggg. They have been our two attacking weapons when we were winning so well. Good to see Burbo there though. Hope he gets some time on the field.
