Round 20 v The Northern Beaches Scum

[Tronald Crump]

I am. I want a 63 point victory today to 1) set the record score against the silvertails and 2) not only put the the wheels back on our season, but put mag wheels on all round!

Think big Panthers! Let's well and truly conquer Brookvale and destroy the eyrie once and for all!

Good times

I would love it. I am cautious by nature. I just want a win. The size doesn't worry me, just a win

These silvertail pricks will lift today i hope we are ready and dont get ambushed and its 18-0 after 15 mins we need to start well and score the 1st try plenty of feeling between these 2 teams from last yr

I am concerned about the same. Those seagulls are dirty and want to avoid the spoon. They are desperate. It's not gunna be easy.

We are getting desperate too. The boys would know a loss here they may well be 8th come close of the round.
They need to stop the slide and atone for last week's loss.
A bit of chatter during the week of them being dirty of their loss to Manly a month ago. Added with last weeks poor performance should provide enough motivation today to win.

After our game against the Broncos it's hard to have any faith at all. Manly are in the same boat as us..up to whichever coach is able to turn it around quicker.

Im on Yeo for a double though and for him to be MOTM.

Slight reshuffle

Moses Leota will start at prop, with James Fisher-Harris moving to lock, Isaah Yeo to the second row and Corey Harawira-Naera dropping back to the bench.

Manly have benched Taupau. Watch for his impact around the 20 minute mark.

I wonder if our late reshuffle was to contain Taupau & Fonua Blake up the middle obviously not knowing Taupau would be benched. Not that it’s going to make a hell of a lot of difference.

You would hope our reshuffle was in the mix all week. Rather than reactive.

No haven't seen it.
It's retro round. Is it a take on one of the 90's jerseys?

The zebra roadkill strip. Truly horrendous.

Did I just hear Gaz say that Aekins can't play because of the salary cap?

Sounds unplanned.
John Cartwright: Marty has had some personal problems this week. Big effort to get here today. Fox sports.

It was highlights of the 52-10 hiding at Penrith in 1999 where Girds scored 26 points.

He can't play because he is not in our top 30. We would need Crichton and Phillips to both get injured to get an exemption to play him.

Gaz just said Maloney was poor at the start of the year but only stepped up round 9-12 when Cleary was absent. ???? cleary played 11 and 12 lmao. and Maloney was poor in 1-3, but carried us 4-10. so I have no clue wtf he is saying

He also doesn't know where our points are going to come from.

Ahh f*ck... it's Matt Nable.
