Let the premature ejaculations begin

This! They do it every year. Manly don'y have a lot to play for. Win or lose, nothing changes for them. Souths on the other hand will have their Grand Final tonight.

BM's ENTER key is stuck.

Let the premature ejaculations begin

Reminds me of last year:lol:

 

[GongPanther]

The supposed tough guys of rugby league are nothing more than speed bumps for the Burgess brothers.:lol:

Yorkshire feckwits.:lol:

 

[Vic Mackey]

Lol George backing off in true burgess style

 

[Cletus]

Well the better team won I guess, I wasn't unhappy with the way Manly played tbh. Just need to execute a bit better and not throw forward passes.

 

[ram raid]

Best game I've seen Souths play in a long time. Looks like they've got a proper backline now.

 

[BunniesMan]

PUSH in the scrum! lovely. That's fitting considering the location.

 

[Vic Mackey]

Lol penalty for what? Upsetting Sam?

 

[Sphagnum]

Well that f**ked everyone's pick the score.

Well timed loss for Manly, they need a good shake-up before the semi finals. Just a reminder, they need to turn it up. Souths will now get over confident & blow it.

Don't feel too down about this loss.You're still in 1st place,and anyone else would have been lapped by 60 going by the attitude of this Soufs side.

Put this loss aside and it's business as usual next week.

We've been top 4 the last two years based on a dominant pack. But we were lacking in the backs and we were lacking in x factor in the halves. Keary, Walker, Johnston mean those boxes are ticked. We have pretty close to the complete team.

IF we make it to the grand final, I hope it's against a Sydney team. And the thought of losing to Easts in a gf is just too frightening so I hope it's a Souths-Manly gf.

WTF is Rabs gibbering about re-enactments?

I'm not down about it. We didn't give up and there was always the effort there in defence. Souths did play well and had a bit of luck as well. Can't take anything away from them really.

You shouldn't be afraid of anything.Be confident and enjoy the ride and know in yourself that at last you have a more than a better chance than others of winning the Roy & H.G. Cup.

Tonight we have seen this years premiers play. No one can match our great defense and attack.

I think the score would have been closer has Matai not gone off injured. Kept going to that left hand side and the ball kept going down and I'd say because it wasn't Matai in that position, which is a shame. Little doubt the loss will dent Manly's season, they have just way too much class to not bounce back.

And like I said earlier, as long as they remain level headed and expect tougher opposition between now and October, they should be there. I'd be more excited than previous years if I followed them. Only grip I'll have is that we'll hear it constantly; media need to settle and relax a bit.

 

[ram raid]

Ever since Sutton got injured Souths have gotten better lol ...

We shouldn't get carried away. I think it's fair to say we're deserving favorites but a lot can happen between now and the day of the big dance.
