+++++++++++++++++++++++

Should be one cracker of a game. Will be a massive effort if we can been Manly at Brooky.

 

[Horrie Is God]

It'll be nice if the media reports about Brett Stewart being out are right..He's generally good for a meat pie or 2 against us at Brookie..

The battle of the halves will probably be where this game is won or lost..If we can contain Foran & DCE then we'll be on our way to a win..BBQ & Pearce's kicking games need to be spot on..

They way our pigs are going i reckon they can match Manly,& hopefully $BW can keep up his magic form..

It's hard to get too confident playing them at Brookie as we usually get pumped,but this year i'm pretty excited about the game..

Us by enough..

Go Easts..

Nah, I want them as close to full strength as possible.

We need to be tested and if we get found out, better it be now than later on. We need to know where we're really at.

 

[Babyface O'reilly]

True, HH but a win at Brookie regardless the strength of the Manly line up would be a confidence booster. A loss may dull the momentum they're trying to build. Anyway, they still have a bloody strong line up.

 

[Silent But Deadly]

It's very early days. 2 points this weekend is more valuable at this stage than finding out 'where we are at' against a full strength Manly.

 

[Monk]

Looks like Brett Stewart is out.

Kennedy should be playing reserve grade. Bring Tasi back

LOD was more impressive than Kennedy v Panthers, I would like to see Evans off the bench against the Cowboys..

Kennedy needs more aggression....

 

[Monk]

Kennedy is slowly rediscovering his old ferociousness which made us all fall in love with him.

We get FPN back this week. Isn't that exciting :sarcasm:?

None of them at Newtown in the forwards are doing that great so we are stuck with Kennedy's handbrake runs and Ben Jones is as shit as we all remember him.

 

[Valheru]

Nice positive comment to return on TT. What are your thoughts on the performance this season thus far?

 

[bellyache]

Its a must win .. No matter who's in or out.

What's wrong with it? He wants Kennedy gone and Tasi back but none of them are putting their hand up playing outstanding football that makes you notice and think they deserve a FG shot and while that continues I will wager unless more injuries Robbo will keep rewarding the FG players. A friend who works with them said after the Cronulla game that Guerra was ripping in to them at full time - called them soft c**ks - and Matterson was worse in the sheds.

Or do you mean Ben Jones? He's cost Newtown two wins the idiot lol

We are going a bit than last year. This Sonny Williams bloke is a fair player

SBWs Boxing skills will be well used against sea birds

Maybe mate.. Thatl be the beagles tactic for sure, doubt we'll buy into it..

 

[Springbokfly]

Manly by 10

 

[bellyache]

Manly by 10

I'm not confident, we are still building and a win at Brookie would be monumental this early in the season..

 

[adamkungl]

Ben Jones plays for us again? Lol.

 

[Tonearm Terrorwrist]

He plays for the Jets. Even some people around there are confused how he got a contract, but they know why he really did.

I thought we had a shot then I saw Henry Perenara was refereeing. I wonder if we'll see another Easts player KO'd in to next week and that idiot not doing anything about it
