[Jerry1]

Poop always nurtures well the next growth.

Tell that to Para lol...

 

[Brooke]

Well the highlight for me will be seeing Hex at centre. Fingers crossed for a hat trick!!! Hex Hex Hex !!!

He is one of my new fave players . Go Brayden!

 

[Lyonstomenzies]

Mateo is a great goal kicker. Check out his percentages.

 

[Dan]

6:00am this game is on 6am my time. Great ill have to wake up and watch the game late no way in hell am I getting up at 6am

 

[Peter C]

6am, you're one of the lucky ones, for me that's a sleep in, me usually 4.30-5 am

With 2 kids i thought you would be up by 6 or 6.30. One of mine is generally always up between those times. Little f$#kers.

Ha no I've trained them well. Matilda gets up about 7:30 or 8 and goes downstairs and makes breakfast and plays or watches YouTube videos and Archie sleeps until about 8:30 or sometimes 9.

Both in bed at 7:30 pm as well. I've trained them well

 

[Garts]

Jesus. Ive got mine in bed between 7 and 7.30 every night but im lucky to get them to sleep past 7 once a fortnight. @Dan

Now we need a 'miracle' button!

 

[Budgie]

Just heard that this will be the first time since 2010 that we'll field a side that doesn't contain with Killer or DCE. We've certainly had a bit of a good run!

Time to install bedroom deadlocks and door security staff Garts.

With an increasing amount of players suffering from osmosis-ankle-osis (I think that's the technical term) why don't they strap to prevent this? Cherry was only strapped after he was already farked. It's happened to him and Tommy T twice? And the young rooster Latrell Mitchell. Surely there's a preventive kind of strapping that could assist this not happening at such and alarming rate?

 

[Peter C]

It's a little bit like the old style boots they used to wear that were ankle high, players rarely got ankle injuries, unfortunately these type of boots , along with strapping restrict running style and speed, might be OK for a forward , but would take metres off a back.

Many athletes will be preventatively strapped to provide further joint stability etc, I know Tom wears the short socks, but I would think (hope) underneath he would have both ankles strapped.

If we're playing at 4pm on Sunday wouldn't it mean the game starts at 8am in The Netherlands. It's 8 hours difference isn't it. I have family there and I Skype there once a week.

Chez didn't start till 2011.

But yes, Killer, Matai, Chez out - all we need is for Ferris and Snake to pull out and we have a Team made up of unknowns from 2011

We had those boots at school, leather sole, nailed on studs/sprigs. The boots had to be polished & laces washed before each game.
Then later, Adidas came to the rescue, haha

 

[Ralphie]

You forgot to say sack Barrett. You OK?

I'm trying the whole positivity thingy.......or maybe just wishful thinking.

Manly second-rower Lewis Brown spoke to the media this morning ahead of the vital clash against Penrith Panthers at Brookvale Oval on Sunday.

Amongst a series of off field questions, Brown did his best to promote the importance of playing well in front of hopefully a packed home crowd in the Sea Eagles’ first home game of the season.

“We are back at home and we really owe our fans a good game. The last few times we have played there, we have really let them down. What better way than to do it that on a Sunday at Brookie.”

 

[HoldenV8]

Well, forget about Steve Matai playing this week.....or the rest of the season it would appear.
