Pre-Game Manly v Eels [Round 21, 2022]

[eagleron]

Parra were well on top before Cleary was sent off and probably took the foot off the pedal in the second half, as usually happens.
The Slime seem to go a lot better in games they're expected to lose, what worries me this week is that with Moses out, they're expected to lose.

The events of the past week with our team kind of change that perspective a bit imo, no one knows how we're going to go as a team with the obvious division, probably more reasons to think it will effect us adversely

Budgie ... Why in the name of sweet Jesu's coat of many colours would a sweet girl like you even contemplate talking to a worm .... seriously .... lift your game !!!!

Addiction is an evil thing Woodsie.

Being a home game the Magnificent 7 will want to put in big games this Friday night. Lots of tension around the team, no better place or time to let it all out. Think Parra are going to cop the brunt of a team hell bent at putting all are troubles behind us.

Clint Gutherson?

The best thing the 7 can do to help some of the fans forget all about the past couple of weeks is to play great; defended well and score multiple flashy tries.
All past indiscretions will soon be forgotten.

Yep 7 tries (1 a piece) against Parra and all is forgiven

The only way this will be forgotten.. at least for the moment is for the 7 to play super and we make the 8. If we dont make the 8 they will be blamed... and fans will never forget. If we do make the 8 and any of them play poorly in the semis or even say for at least the next 12 months the cries and howls will be deafening. Just the reality. Making the 8 might put a patch on things for a while but I gather with most fans they will get little leeway.

 

[Eagle thru 'n' thru]

According a Zero Tackle article, Gutho has been training in the half back position, and Parra are considering having Hayze Pernham at fullback. Our halves should rain Steaden's on the poor fella all night long.

 

[Mark from Brisbane]

According to Twitter the two Josh’s are injured and won’t play.

So it’s the magnificent 5 now

Props Josh Aloiai (knee) and Sean Keppie (shoulder) will miss the game through injuries sustained in the round 19 loss to the Dragons.

 

[Brisbane Tragic]

Surely Schuster for Burbo....Schuster has been very average but he has some class on Burbo. Also Bullemor for Boyle?

Yeah looking how he came off against st george he wasn't going to play last week in any case, same with quac the way he was limping through that game.

 

[Mark from Brisbane]

I’d take Bullemor instead of Boyle , dunno about Schuster he hasn’t been setting the world on fire recently .

 

[Simonmyers11]

I would have Bullemor over Burbo any day.

 

[Brisbane Tragic]

I would have Bullemor over Burbo any day.

Yes and even though Schuster is average so far... he would certainly be over Burbo.

 

[HoldenV8]

Interesting team sheet.

Burbo named on the bench, Schuster the #18.....

The others I expected to be where they are.

We really needed the most reverend Aloiai for this one. That's a big out. Keppie not so , he's been very ineffectual. Marty has huge ?? over seeing he wanted out. Schuster is obviously playing injured. He should just give it away for this year and concentrate on a rehab schedule to get right for 2023. We have the players to win this but do we have the desire or team harmony.

Only time shall tell.

Lose and we are gonski for 2022.

We won’t beat the Sharks and we can only afford one loss , so every other game is a must win.

 

[tookey]

Ben Trbojevic must have photos of Des and the goat as he has been very average this year

Bullemore very good last week and should be in the team
