Game Day: Manly v Knights [Round 14, 2017]

[Fluffy]

Who's turn is it for the 'we love globaleagle' sign?

lol - I'm just kidding!!!!!

Hopefully a good turn out. I mean it's been proven that 'being outside in the rain' does NOT cause colds. It's a parental trick to stop kids getting wet clothes.

Plus we don't want to be as bad as those soul-less stadiums!

I used to hate being in the rain...but now...not so much.

Manly will wanna put a good show on in front of the faithful.

Anyway....I can't be there so it's easy for me to type 'turn up ya buggers!'

(reminder @marga will be there as @Mark from Brisbane says. You guys as tough as her???)


Go Manly!

It is also proven that Brookie gets more supporters in the rain than the roosters at the SFS so facilities are not the issues.

I always imagined you from Perth. I do not know why. I shall continue to do so.

He is, just has very good eyesight

Okay now the lights are off - but you can see them in the distance

 

[HoldenV8]

I'm hearing a rumour that Turbo will definitely start at fullback tonight with Matty Wright on the wing.

 

[Danly Manly]

There will still be some more showers at time during the day.

If Tom plays - Manly by 18+

If J.Wright plays Manly by 8-10

I am deeply concerned that Jonathan Wright is not up to the task of playing first grade. The few games i have seen him play in the reserves this year i believe his NRL career is done and dusted. He is a 4 or 5/10 player, error prone and very slow.

 

[Wombat64]

My tip is Two men and a dog will be the crowd tonight given the rain, 6pm kick off etc.

Who is bringing their dog as I will be there cheering the boys home no matter how hard it rains!

Nah, there is at least 10 of us going as well (no dog though).

 

[globaleagle]

leigh centurions v wigan on the tv here at the moment.

One G.Stewart is running around for Leigh.

He's... err..... big.

Without wanting to sound too critical of those making the decisions , Jono Wright .....WTF!!

I watched him a few times for the Warriors, just not FG standard by any means.

Surely Matele ( not sure if that's the correct spelling) who plays for Blacktown is a better option if Turbo can't play.

But, I'll stand corrected!

Surprisingly important game today, we win then we are likely to make the top 4.

Gotta improve our points for and against tonight to do so

 

[Danly Manly]

Could we actually win a penalty count? If we do we might win by 40+ (If Tom plays)

 

[Deleted member 26876]

I'm hearing a rumour that Turbo will definitely start at fullback tonight with Matty Wright on the wing.

That's great, Trent said that he wouldn't risk Tom unless 100%, I trust him

Manly by 30, danger game if unprepared although should annihilate the knights tonight

 

[stoodamire]

I'm happy with a win and no injuries thanks.

Hopefully the boys don't think they just need to turn up and win or it'll be the upset of the year.

 

[Mitch]

Tom is 100% playing.

Any news on API
With the short turnaround what is his chances re being cleared re concussion protocols and our short turn around?

I will be happy with win, anything else a bonus.
We can't take the knights lightly.
Can't wait to get down to brookvale this evening

Api was cleared during the match. Baz just rested him.

Nah there will be heaps more dogs than just one! ......it's going to be raining cats and dogs!

Thanks, I didn't know that
Glad he is playing tonight
Not long now

It was in an earlier article this week.

Baz wanted to go easy on the Raiders

Although that Jacko pass to Chez for the FG, would not have happened

Spot on - no complacency, no injuries and no Brookie curse. Go Manly!
