Don't get too confident..the crowd will not be on your side on Sunday.
hahaha when has a crowd advantage been an issue for Manly playing away from Brookvale?
The club is built on seige mentality so that sort of thing if anything will spur them on.
How are Manly under siege?
They're playing a team who talked up last week as "glad to be getting another game", meaning in the opinion of the coach, they didn't deserve to be getting that 2nd chance in the first place.
Hasler can come out and boast the underdog tag all he wants but money talks and Manly are strong favorites, they thumped the Cowboys, thumped the Broncos (not on the scoreboard but the game was never in doubt). Win/lose or draw, the Warriors will be a team to watch and I hope they live up to the hype but I can see this being a mismatch, having said that I don't think this "we're under siege" bullshit will get Manly over the line, they should win, they've been consistent all year and have won the big games.
If Hasler takes the "we're under siege" approach, I would love to hear his speech prior to the kickoff as to how exactly they're under siege, it can only be under siege from the NRL in which case it wouldn't matter who their opposition is.
Looking forward to it.
hahahaha you obviousy haven't recovered from last Friday night and your head is still fu*king fried.
The seige mentality comes from the fact Manly are a Sydney team and are going to be massively unpopular in a grand final against a team not from Australia!!!!!
How is that not going to create an "us against them" mentality for the Manly team?
I look forward to hearing your stupid response.:roll:
Did I say they weren't favourites? Not me moron. They are favourites and deserve to be.
And please don't have a go at a coach trying to offload the favourites tag. Your state coach has made a fu*king art of it for the last 5 years.
Oh, and I don't think the "we're under seige bullshit" will get them over the line. I was replying to a post saying that not having the crowd behind them was an issue for Manly. They will win because they have a better team across the park and have far more experience.
F*ck off back to Broncoland and dream of a grand final appearance.
A Sydney team playing against a New Zealand team in Sydney and will be massively unpopular? Maybe if the fans showed a bit of support it wouldn't be that way, f**k you're an idiot.
I couldn't care less for the state team, we've won 6 in a row.
Oh and it's sIEge, not sEIge, you uneducated halfwit.
How about history repeating itself? 16 all with 10 seconds to go and the Warriors crash over for the winning try.
Exactly how is that history repeating? :?
'Grand final not SOO
This maggot brought up the point about the QLD coach using the underdog's mentality so I pointed out we have won 6 in a row.
Manly won't be doing a victory lap if there's no Manly fans there, in which case you've contradicted yourself.
Don't mess with me kiddo, I will humiliate you in front of all of these people, oh and I actually LOL'd at the fact that you brought up the red plane cartoon, shows how many of you really did take the bait.
:lol:
Oh, bait was it?
Hey mate how you doing, having a good afternoon there champ?
Nice of you to stop by before you join the list of St. Merge fans bumping last years GF thread.
i think he was referring to the 97 GF... the newbie team beating the heavily favored Manly side to take there maiden premiership.Exactly how is that history repeating? :?
With the ride the route the Warriors have taken to get there, it just might take its toll Sunday, Tipping Manly to clean up 30+....would'nt be surprised to see a blowout by half time.
