NRL 2022 Round 1 Discussion

[Super Freak]

That was a very typical Manly start to the season.

They are notorious for losing their opening game. The last time they won their opening game, it was against us in 2013 and even that wasn't a convincing win. Even during the period when they were consistently a Top 4 side, they weren't really the best starters.

They're a side that gets better as the season progresses, usually peaking as finals gets closer.

Keen to see how Bullemor handles being on the edge, though. He's an agile forward and with Foran feeding him the ball, they could strike quite a lethal combo.

They can call the expansion team Wellington Insurrectionists and their fans can wear tinfoil hats

I thought flat earthers had the tinfoil hat market all rapped up

**** Manly were ordinary last night. Penrith nullified their back 3 and they had absolutely no answers in the forward battle. Keep Tom quiet and they have no other answers

Interesting to hear thoughts from you non-Manly folks, thanks. We Silvertails traditionally find it hard to remain objective about our side, basically we are either the greatest or else all our players are crap. :)

Well this is fairly standard fan stuff...except for us current Broncos' fans, we know we suck.

No... Wolfie has assured me we are winning tonight by 32... the money is down and tied into Patty Carrigan anytime try scorer.

It's all fucking set... Souths about to be smoked by Billy the kid!!

Woohoo! Dan Ginnane and Cooper Cronk for the first two games of 2022, why you so stoopid Fox?

 

[Brotherdu]

I've never heard someone whisper as angrily as Dale Finucane!

Some high intensity up-tempo footy in the first 20, similar to last night's game.

Sharks killing themselves with
1. really poor ball control, and,
2. failing to wrap up the ball in defence, allowing offloads and second phase play

Dan "goodbye" Ginnane is joined by Cooper "turning on a dime" Cronk for tonight's game

Enjoy!

To the commentary, I usually say: 'Goodbye!'

It is better that way.

 

[Midean]

I kind of want to see Raiders lose this just for the inevitable meltdown sticky will have after giving up a decent lead.

 

[Sproj]

This has been a good game.

 

[Sproj]

Haha on that last play the ref called held with no one tackling him.

Didn’t suck much tonight, quite enjoyable to see the Bunnies put away. Your young winger is a star.

Yeah that was a surprise but very welcome victory with so many players out. Yeah we love Cobbo and he loves the club, he could be anything.

I'm excited to see your super fast right edge get a chance once the kid in the trials get some game time later in the year no doubt.
