Manly v Parramatta [Round 17 2013] Game day thread

[Roger]

Sorry guys don't have foxtel, what happened?

A few guys tackling Buhrer, Allgood comes in and swinging arm/punches Buhrer in the ribs. Matai walks up to him and Allgood starts throwing them

Thanks KE

Time for another lads, I want the bat raised

Nice try! Has Buhrer put some weight on? Looks great tonight.
Lawrence, i think i have man love for this guy. They've all had a good game, but gotta remember - it's only Parra

Snake handing out a try to his mate is awesome. Love your work Brett.

 

[Rambo1987]

Kite wasnt good tonight

 

[winnyason]

Richie is back next week

 

[Chip and Chase]

Broken thumb, that's got to be 6 weeks hasn't it ? At least George walked off. Gifty a finger in the eye, hopefully not too bad.

 

[Kiwi Eagle]

Jorge cracked the ton in dream team !! Wolf 73 and Lyon, Buhrer and Foran all mid 50s

 

[Chip and Chase]

Horhay got 130+ in Supercoach. Cost me the win actually, because I benched him this week. Damn !!

What a pleasant surprise. Manly won all three grades. First time for quite a while. And U20s played without their big guns Gutherson and Trbojevic. Noted Hopoate apparently had a pretty reasonable game.

But Manly firsts finally got their attack spluttering out of first gear. Still only second gear but a big improvement. Brett back to something like his best. Taufua and Williams seem to have been almost unstoppable. Buhrer showed his class it seems. The backline actually clicked thanks to a much more encouraging forward effort led it seems by big George Rose. They'll be without Watmough and DCE next week, while NQ will be without Thurston and a few of their best. Who do they bring in as half? Chisholm? And will Glenn Stewart be fit? At least Fa'aiso will be back to give impetus.

Congrats Manly on a top weekend, the two lower grades defeating teams above them and Manly finally getting a good win albeit against a pretty poor side.

Horhay got 130+ in Supercoach. Cost me the win actually, because I benched him this week. Damn !!

He's in my team. He scored 160 odd!! Biggest score if ever seen.

The Manly love that keeps on giving :

• Snake gifting Foz a try:shy:
• Matai fighting the urge to defend himself for the good of the Team🙄
• Matty thanking everyone on the perimiter for coming 😉
• Wolfie and Kitey, Kite running with the Kiddie in the Wheelchair over the Souther tryline, Wolfie pretending to chase them down - the smile on the Kid was Manly big

So happy to see my Boys smiling again

Despite some defensive lapses I thought that was quite encouraging.The **** defence allowed us to get some fluidity in attack which will at least create confidence in the players when tested against better defence.

I thought we would win comfortably but the nice bit was that it was the attack that did the trick.Would have been nice to keep the same side for next week but this seems to be just one of those years.

When will the myth that is Ricky Stuart be put to rest.It is unbelieveable.
