[kia ora storm]

Manly by 4...

 

[GongPanther]

FNQ to trounce Manly by at least 30.

 

[PenrithPanther45]

It's nice to go from playing the titans one week to the cowboys.... North Queensland by 18

 

[I Bleed Maroon]

Big danger game for North QLD. The Brookevale Bog will be bearing down on them hard, as will their loud and obnoxious fans and Manly are looking to be finally letting Toovey breathe.

Manly by 4.

 

[Haffa]

Manly by a couple of Brett Stewart tries.

 

[blake2101]

What makes us obnoxious?
Cheering for our team at our own home ground?

Seriously, do not waste your energy on that idiot.

lol especially because it's
1.Wishful thinking by a Broncos fan.
2.Broncos fan calling other fans obnoxious:lol:

Close game, can't call it.

 

[Keffola]

Only just got pipped at the post last time, and in theory we're playing better than we were back then....

Add to that we're at home so hopefully we get up by 6.

 

[Rhyno]

Manly by 4

The Cows are quite an enigma. They have the ability to play like world beaters, and like wooden spooners, all in the same game. It's not just this year either. Witness the final vs the Roosters last year. 30 unanswered points, then they woke up and were a tad unlucky to lose.

Manly have improved but the Cowboys are not the Titans.

That's essentially it in a nutshell.

A few wins against lowly ranked teams is all good for morale and back slapping, but this is the litmus test.

 

[grandorient]

Too close to call for mine, but should be a great game.

As long as the refs don't influence the result.

GO

True, but while Manly have improved since last time we met, so have the Cowboys.

Our away record this year is the best in the comp, team back to almost full strength (Tamou aside). This game is a big test though, Manly at Brookie are a tough ask no matter where they are on the ladder.

 

[matrightyeh]

nql will smash them

 

[Jason Maher]

I predict a few dodgy calles allowing Manly to win by 2.

 

[Phil McGrawhan]

I predict a few dodgy calles allowing Manly to win by 2.

I agree .
We have got home in many tight games by the skin of our teeth .

I think the Brookie bias will make that near impossible this week .

Hope I'm wrong .

 

[Dutchy]

Brookie bias lol. We've conceded 35 penalties in the past 4 matches at Brookvale, losing all 4 penalty counts. Only received 20 penalties in those matches.

 

[Dutchy]

Actually, Manly has not won a penalty count at Brookvale all season.

Round 16, 2014 v Roosters :lol: is the last time we won a pen count at Brookvale.
