[t-ba]

If Manly us serious they win this.

Good thing for the Roosters they are a deeply unserious footy team.

 

[Fangs]

Saturday night has a number of great match ups. This is one of them.

My ladder predictor has Manly on a 7 match winning streak until they face the Dogs. So I'll back them in this one.

 

[Mr. Shaman]

We stink, I’ll be needing several bottles of this.

 

[Saxon]

Chooks need to stop giving away stupid sin bins. Otherwise too much class for Manly.

My ladder predictor has the Roosters winning this one by 10. Your ladder predictor is busted mate.

Have you tried clearing your cache?

I just did. Now my laptop screen is blue and my home security system has shut down... thanks.

Just as I suspected.

Nick Politis has shares in Cloudstrike you know.

 

[Vic Mackey]

Think Easts will be wanting to make up for last week. Manly are a hard team to catch. They can play 10 mins where they look like they can win the comp, then the next 10 like they're bottom 4. I trust Easts more, particularly away from Brookvale.

Roosters by 10.

 

[yobbo84]

The Roosters are 1 win and 7 losses against the current Top 8 (and 10-0 against the bottom 9).

An interesting tidbit that no-one is talking about.

The new Sharts?

Probably because it’s only technically correct. Broncos (7th) and Saints (=8th) when we last played them and won.

No one takes them seriously enough to care.

They have friends in the media.

But yes they are flat track bullies.

Robo is lucky he had Cooper Cronk to coach the team to win him a couple of comps in recent times otherwise he’d be already sacked by Politis.

Oh yes, because teams that win premierships are made up of no-name bog average players

 

[Valheru]

You will have to forgive our friends above, we lost one game in 7 weeks so it's been a rough time for them.

 

[Fangs]

Manly are $3.04 outsiders on Sportsbet so the Roosters probably have nothing to worry about.

 

[This Year?]

This game going to be a fun ride, especially for people who like to dabble in tryscorer betting.

 

[Stinkfinger]

This is where Manly find out where they stand.
