Raiders v Sea eagles [Round 12, 2018] - Team Lists & Pre Game discussion

[Sue]

The hate for Brown is way overdone. He’s played grand finals and test football. He’s past his best but he’ll be fine in the middle of the park where he’s not defending one on one.His passing is also pretty good.He won’t beat us. The only thing that beats us is lack of respect for the football.

Who is going to the game? I live in Canberra but not sure where to sit? Away supporters bay?

We are heading there tomorrow for the Friday night game have done so for the last 3 years.
We have tickets for the East Bowl away supporters bay 73 - cannot wait!

I'm confident of a win. We have a good record here, and with Hodko playing a full game, our options can test the Raiders. I think Poo will hold his own, and the team help him in defence. I'm tipping Manly 13+ Good times ahead for the Sea Eagles!

 

[globaleagle]

No, he fessed up in the final episode and admitted that he wasn't master of his domain

Oh man..... spoiler alert!!!!!

 

[Oracle]

Hodko will be huge for us if he can turn back the clock to his Bulldogs form.
DC is on record saying he has never felt this comfortable in his position now that Hodko is playing 6.

I’m heading up to the Bunya Mountains for the weekend with some old friends and I’m not sure of Phone /Internet coverage.

The house we’ve rented has VAST TV ( Satelite ) but not Foxtel, so I guess I’ll at least get the result!!

Come on boys keep this roll happening!!

Only one tipster in the tele rated us a chance and the bookies have us as rank outsiders .... Love it .....

I saw that - Broncs and Scumos were obviously judged as easybeats for our 11 man side

Manly are known to do their best when everything is against them. The bookies have done us a favour by having us as outsiders.

Don’t worry the Tipsters just HATE having to chose Manly, we’ve been underdogs for the last 3 games!!

Although I think the loss of Walker and Happy Api does have some merit in their thinking!!

Api out, the GOAT himself in. How can we not be favourites?

We can carry him .

My concern is there is no where to hide up the middle where most of the play is and where most of the big boys run . Brown tends to arm grab as apposed to smaller and more powerful and affective Api putting the shoulder in .
Another concern is his stupid last tackle penalties that he gives away .
I have never been a fan on Brown and was relieved that our coaching staff finally saw the light of day this year up until now .
The best I expect from Brown is to hold his own and let other players do the rest

Lewie will really have a point to prove. And I do think hooker is his best spot. I won't be surprised if Browny has his best game by a long way in Marion and white this week.

Hopefully playing for a contract (elsewhere)

Win the next 3 and we are guaranteed to be in the top 8. Raiders, Cowboys, Warriors.

We play a lot more top 8 opposition in the second half of the season. Lose any aside from the matches against the top 2-4 and we will be doing it tough to stay in the 8 again. This season is a lot tighter on the ladder and all wins/losses are crucial.

Perrett can play Friar Tuck
Cherry can be Robin Hood

Ricky Stuart stars as the Sherriff of Nottingham

Poo's weakness in defense will be compensated by a much improved Lane ,Joel and now Hodko on his left

I've watched the 28 minute game a few times now and it is truly inspiring to see Chez at hooker, yet no defensive gap by the other 10 Manly players against 12 Scumos
