Game Day: Manly v Storm [Round 7, 2023]

[ManlyTragic]

MIGOTY

Just sayin’

 

[Terry Zarsoff]

Speaking of, did anyone else notice DCE has had a bandage on his hand in the photos on the club's socials this week? Does he have an injury?

Someone punched him in the nose. Either that, or kicked him up the arse.

 

[BOZO]

We need a lot more than luck.

The only way we win , is they implode , a send off , couple of sin bins , whatever.

Highly , no very highly unlikely.

As much as I’m positive , and don’t think things are as bad as most have made it this week we just have to accept it’s David v Goliath for this game.

We just have to hope they at least have a crack , and that the refs try and stop it being a rout.

The Turbo Turbulence could whether the Storm

There is always hope feathered friend

There is always hope feathered friend

Always hope old mate , it’s never a forgone conclusion BUT we do need a bit of a miracle.

A fit Turbo is our Miracle that comes once in every Manly persons life time

Yes but Seibolds version of fit , and Silvertails version of fit are two very different beasts.

We might get to see the Turbo of old again , but I think it’s a long way off , he’s still learning how to run again.

Well David beat Goliath, so there’s still some hope, it be a little more apt to suggest we show a little faith…….

Let’s go, a miracle will do just fine, we’re still in this one, it’s never over till the fat lady sings……..

 

[Woodsie]

Go hard and rip in Manly ...

 

[The Royal Soup]

Another week and another smashing coming our way…

Storm 13+

We ain’t beating anyone with that dud center pairing

 

[NREagle]

Hahaha. This was on the Golden Eagles Insta. Look who's in the background....

 

[Saabnaldo]

Got a feeling munster is gonna have a blinder at fullback

 

[CoreyWaddellSuperFan]

Got a feeling munster is gonna have a blinder at fullback

I have the same feeling about Tommy, but I gotta tell ya young Tyler, your prediction is not rocket science.

 

[alafua siaosi]

I have the same feeling about Tommy, but I gotta tell ya young Tyler, your prediction is not rocket science.

They have under estimated us by playing Munster at fullback but not at 6 where he is comfortable .
If we do not give them extra sets especially with some of the silly errors we committed last week ,we can beat them .Let's go Maaaaaaanly .

 

[40 nil]

Let’s go, a miracle will do just fine, we’re still in this one, it’s never over till the fat lady sings……..

Maybe a large female singer (in Manly colours, of course) should be employed at the ground to break into song whenever we are behind on the scoreboard at the back end games? No doubt, this would uplift the spirits of the faithful

 

[Cliffy's Jockstrap]

The last couple of times I've seen Harry Grant play I have honestly thought He Looks A Bit Dally M. Last couple of games we have really failed to close down the dummy half channel. If we let Grant run then he will cut us up, breaking our defensive structures, and then he will look to his inside shoulder where Guess What, there is Munster charging down middle field...... if we let that happen this will turn nightmarish.

 

[Alfreddo]

I still like our chances if a couple of our big guns decide to fire tonight. We are capable of being quite explosive in attack when the likes of Tom, Saab and DCE are all on their game. Weekes can also open any game up if used selectively. I would assume that we need to score at least 5 tries to win this one, possibly 6. So it is important for us to go into the sheds with a handy lead at half time 8pts+. We are far more likely to shoot out to a match winning lead and then clock off for 15-20 Minutes so this could be another one of those crazy high scoring encounters unless we finally get our defence in order.

Manly 30 - Storm 28

[TimmyQ]

This is a game I'm ok with losing IF we don't shoot ourselves in the foot and beat ourselves. Complete high, tackle hard and kick smart. Play a Dolphins style of game and cross our fingers. If we don't get the absolute basics right it'll get ugly. Give yourselves a chance boys! Go Manly

 

[Alfreddo]

I really would prefer us to hold Melbourne out to 3 tries max. A scoreline in the vicinity of 26-16 is still in the equation if we muscle up in defence.
