2011 GF | PREMIERS - Sea Eagles 24-10 Warriors @ ANZ

[BunniesMan]

You'd be wrong. 1995 Bulldogs side defeated Manly... Dogs finished 6th, Manly 1st.

Warriors are every chance, especially with the form they displayed on Saturday evening.

I didn't say it never happened. It's just very rare.

Go the mighty Vodafone Warriors, Vodafone Junior Warriors and Auckland Vulcans. Make it 3/3.

FMD, I hope they're paying you...

Those are the team names.

Can someone tell Vatuvei to know Stewart's head off...Brett that is.

Knock Snake's head off with knowledge? :-k

 

[Noa]

Wonder what effect Manly having 2 players who havent played for 4 weeks will have. Could be huge i feel.

Valid point. I certainly hope you're right.

Similarly, I felt the Storm were a tad underdone after what I considered a less than perfect build up, and it showed in their combinations.

I watched a replay of the Broncos vs Manly semi and tbh, it was pretty much a stroll in the park for the Sea Eagles.

 

[Fast Eddie]

For once for this finals series I just want a good start.

 

[Alan Johnson]

I've got a lot of time for Manly, aside from the Warriors they've been my favourite team this year and I would have supported them in the final if they were playing Melbourne.

I'll be gutted if the Warriors lose but at the very least I hope they give it everything.

 

[Michael Bishop]

Warriors have been great in their last two games but I'm not confident they're going to turn up a third time. If they do it will be a great match and could go either way, but I'm thinking a comfortable Manly win. 34-10.

 

[Pugzley]

Warriors by 1 after Manly holds a 5 point lead over them for 75min.

AH CEAGLE, things didn't go to plan last week. At the end of the day I had faith in my team; so how's the hate coming Manly scum?!

CC medallist - Foran.

I thought GI was supposed to get it this year. Maybe you can find a chocolate replica one to give him.

 

[Timmah]

All teams now listed in Post #1 apart from Warriors NYC.

 

[Pugzley]

I stand by my statement regarding the match. The Warriors like to come from behind/keep it close during big games just for that bit of razzle dazzle.

AH JOSHIE! :lol: What happened to the Storm making the GF? :lol::lol:

Don't get too confident..the crowd will not be on your side on Sunday.

 

[IanG]

How about history repeating itself? 16 all with 10 seconds to go and the Warriors crash over for the winning try.

 

[Oldboy]

A lot of wishful thinking on here. Remember '08? What were you predicting then?

Manly by at least 20.

 

[shiznit]

im actually pretty confident in the Warriors this weekend... i dont really know why.

i just get the feeling that they seem to be getting better and better... and Sunday may well be the big stage this club stands up and makes its mark on the NRL.

i could be wrong... Manly are a bloody good football side... and would be deserved premiers.

but normally when i see an underdog team go into a GF i feel nervous for them... not in this instance for some reason...
