Dear Lord ... save us from the games we are supposed to win ....

Titans are locks for a really good 20-25 min period. The rest of their game is s h i t.

 

[Jethro]

This has DANGER game written all over it. Coming off the back of a series of impressive performances. Playing at home against a team we would expect to beat. Complacency is our biggest enemy. I'm sure Des won't allow it in but it is difficult to stay up all the time.

Des has mentioned several times about the bottleneck that is building on the ladder so I think that he will have the team primed for the win.

Titans are kinda a bogey team for us

If Tom is fit he would be a wasted space sitting on the side lines .

Points for and against counts at the end of the season and a fit Tom always carves up

If hes ready he will play but they said rnd 13. Maybe next week? Either way when he comes back wow! Our game is going to goto a new level

 

[wombatgc]

I thought we got dudded on seeing the boys up here. Then realised we play them twice. Looking forward to Rnd 15, so we can beat them twice.

Let us look closely , very, very , very , very closely at those stats feathered friend ......

Since the Tits came into the comp in 2007

We have won 9 and the Tits have won 5

I think they are ours for the taking this weekend

 

[BOZO]

Manly is on a three-match winning streak at Lottoland this year with the Rabbitohs, Raiders and Bulldogs their 'victims' so far on the Northern Beaches.

But the Titans enjoyed two wins over the Sea Eagles in 2018 - the most recent being at Lottoland in round 23 last year in a high-scoring game 42-34.

Of course the Des Hasler-styled defence is a far cry from the Trent Barrett structures. And they will have to be as the Titans are in the habit of scoring points early - two unanswered tries against the Knights in round six, the Wests Tigers in in round seven, and the Bulldogs in round 10.

Gimmemorley is tipping us by 10. Is that a bad omen?

It took him a while but I think he has finally seen the light how all Manly players are born again under Desus

 

[HappilyManly]

Gimmemorley is tipping us by 10. Is that a bad omen?

Was it because we beat his Team by 10

He must have a template for his tips and just swaps team names as each week its 10 points

Hope Gazza slots in a field goal and blows Noddy's mind

Titans prop Moeaki Fotuaika is playing through the pain of a broken wrist in a bid to boost the Titans injury-hit pack.

Oh Gawd... #kissofdeath

Every Tuesday I love trying to guess the team Dessie's gonna name. It's a bit of a 'who do I think is going to return from injury' game . God help me trying to pick it once Turbo, Chez and Suli become fit....

However, here's my tip for this afternoon's team list:

1. Elliott
2. Taufua
3. Walker
4. Parker
5. Garrick
6. Croker
7. Elgey
8. AFB
9. Koroisau
10. Taupau
11. Thompson
12. Sironen
13. Trbojevic
14. Fainu
15. Gosiewski
16. Waddell
17. Boyle

Cust had a great debut and I will definitely not be disappointed whatsoever if he gets named over Croker. But at the same time, I think Croker deserves a chance to show what he has got, if he is fit, which I am presuming he will be. It seemed Api hurt his shoulder mid-game but I saw him running down the sideline shortly after with ease so I am thinking he is ok.

Anyways, keen to see who the mad scientist names!

 

[The Indian]

Yes I'm more worried about his game than Sharks game. Teams that have flair and use the ball a bit like the Titans do can cause us some troubles. Teams that grind and try to outmuscle us and play conservative struggle cause we are powerful in the forwards and are out enthusing the opposition in the physical stuff.

A game that turns into a high scorer won't suit us at all. I think the Titans are set up to cause us problems. Creative halves who chance their arm, fast outside backs. I well remember Brimson cutting us to ribbons last year.

Worried about an emotional let down against a so called easier team, after several very tough energy sapping performances. Danger game for sure and certain.

Hmmm maybe they are the team that we are supposed to beat easy and somehow lose. Dragons are our bogey team for sure

 

[1969]

I'm not worried about this game at all.
We are a different team to the one who ran out last year.
Our defence is solid and consistant.
Brookie is becoming a fortress again.
Titans are sh1t.
There is no ambush.
Manly by plenty!

 

[SeaEagle007]

The angry little midget Kimmorley has tipped us for the first time this year.. And by 10 FMD.....
