[Special K]

Great game. Will be hard for manly to back up next week after that physical battle!

 

[ceagle]

Manly were terrible,how did they only lose by 6

Because the Dogs were terrible as well. Weird game.

 

[Sleep]

Trash frpm both sides. Sloppy game.

 

[The Eagle]

I really hope they don't award the MOM to Barba.

Needs to be Tony Williams

and yet they still won.

LOL

But then again, I support the Warriors...so LOL @ me

Theres some point id assume ive missed? Im not worried until
tuesday when the NRL makes sure no team ever goes back to
back

 

[carlosthedwarf]

I think Manly might be in trouble next week. No Lyon, no Matai, no King, Williams surely in doubt... theyre gone IMO.

They will still have the refs in their pocket

 

[some11]

"only won by" doesn't count in finals genius.

 

[BranVan3000]

Good questions Locky. He just reworded what watmong said back to him as questions

 

[Rabbit toes]

Watmough and Lockyer, worst interview ever.

[WaznTheGreat]

Manly are a dud 2nd half team under Toovey,they don't seem to be as fit as they were under Hasler

 

[skeepe]

Needs to be Tony Williams

:lol:

Matai was lucky not to get sent off. No way he won't get charged. And if he does it's not a conspiracy, it's his own stupid fault.

FMD, if we serve that tripe up next week, we are gone fo 2012 x

Congrats Dogs Supporters

lockyer to morris: "you showed a bit of speed on that break have you working on that?"

 

[ceagle]

:lol:

You can't be f**king serious?? :lol:

 

[Disco]

Cant decide if both teams simply played rubbish or if both teams only played as well as they were allowed by the opposition.

I think it was the former.

Manly in trouble if Lyon is out and i'd say with Matai's rep he will cop a week (kingy should be fine though)


On a side note, is it just me or did the bulldogs think they were playing soccer...........staying down at every opportunity

 

[afinalsin666]

Well, I'm about 10 times more confident after that.

 

[skeepe]

You can't be f**king serious?? :lol:

Looked deliberate to me. If its not a final, he goes.

 

[Evenflow]

Given what was a very uninspiring game from both sides it's more apparent now than ever before that this comp is anyone's.

 

[Grapple]

Canterbury 14-10.

Obstruction plays and/or Barba will be the winner on the day.

Pretty close.

...one handed.



Predictions:

1. Glenn Stewart to be Manly's best.
2. Morris to be Canterbury's best.
3. Pritchard to put a shot on King early in the game.
4. Matai to put a shot on someone only to be put on report and miss the rest of the finals.
5. Watmough penalised for incorrect play the ball.
6. One try disallowed to Canterbury for obstruction by the video ref.

1. Nope.
2. Second to Tolman
3. Timing and player was off.
4. Spot on.
5. Was very close.
6. Spot on.

Congrats Dogs. Scrappy game but still good to watch. I hope we've got some players next week.
