Game Day: Warriors v Manly [Round 21, 2019]

[brad]

We will win this convincingly if the ' once were warriors don't turn up . Need to put them away to be real contenders. These games along with the tigers at there home ground are the most dangerous.

I hope I am just having an old bastard moment ... but I have been around too long to predict a big flogging ... always hopeful .... but I will take an ugly win .... anything more than that will be a bonus ...

I am disappointed @HappilyManly hasn’t posted a weather forecast for the game.

I'm not in NZ 🙁 although it's 4 degrees here in Gods Country 😱

Warm us up Manly

Start well without giving them a sniff and will kick on....will blow up the middle and play off that....Garrick over 100 again on Fantasy coach this week I reckon

They are weak through the middle.

weather forecast for the game.

12' + rain - ball control & kicking game very important

Not really @Mark from Brisbane . A loss here won't be too damaging. 5th is our best shot anyway and we'll hold that regardless.

Weather closing in. Looks like torrential rain for late arvo and game time. Not good for us, we are dry track runners at moment. Warriors x 12 now

Anyone over there (from ST) ?

Can you bring me back a Kea?

edit: I didn't mean a real one, sheesh 🙁

They are incredibly smart birds. 🙂

I just assumed you had a parking problem at your place 😉
An HR manager once asked me what animal I would be* and I responded with a Kea. He wasn't that impressed and said that all they seem to do is hang around ski resorts and destroy tourist's rental cars....which was part of the reason I gave that answer 😛
*FYI - the CORRECT answer to that question is a butterfly 🙂

If Souths lose by 6 against the Storm and we win by 8, then we are already in 4th place.

No reason we can't secure a Top 4 slot, but we will need to keep winning.

More than anything else, I hope we don't pick up any injuries tonight.
We will really need our forwards to work hard the whole game. Our game plan has really been to break the middle then spread it wide but with the rain we will really need the forwards to persist. We have been very ordinary when it comes to scoring from close range while the warriors are one of the best.

If we can win the battle for field position then we should be good, if we don't we could struggle to outscore them.

Blake Ayshford has been ruled out for the Warriors, with Gerard Beale moving from wing to centre. Rookie Adam Pompey comes onto the wing.

Rain worries me cause guys like turbo are vulnerable to injury on wet tracks.

One of the reasons why I mentioned the MIGOTY @mickqld

We could easily see ourselves in 4th by the end of this weekend AND then every game is MIGOTY to keep that spot!!

Like Cæsar, manly will come in triumph over Pompey’s blood.
