Round 12 - Broncos vs Manly - Pre-Match Discussion

[Super Freak]

Gillett, Hodges and Parker all out apparently.

This game is a guaranteed loss.

 

[noisetheory]

from what i've heard its only hodges who isnt backing up. source?

 

[Bucking Beads]

Yeah Hodges won't play.

 

[noisetheory]

i mean, yeah, hodges has been confirmed out. but im pretty sure hte others are all in's.

toovey has just confirmed watmough is NOT playing.

we should smash them in the forwards.

 

[Alec]

With DCE and Watmough out...we could actually win.

 

[Super Freak]

Never mind, I heard wrong.

I just read an article where Griffin confirms both Gillett and Parker are playing.

But Hodges is still a huge loss. I don't have much confidence in Copley being able to contain Matai.

I have more faith in Copley doing a job defensively on Matai than I do Hodges.

 

[Porthoz]

Gillett just confirmed to me he's playing tomorrow.

 

[jd87]

might be stupid question but i havnt been following manly that closely . is foran back playing yet or is he still out injured

 

[Rally Towel]

Going to the game, but doubtful of a win.

Even with DCE out, Manly have too much class and experience across the park. We've seen this year that we can be competitive with most teams, but are a step behind the frontrunners (e.g Roosters). Expect that to continue here, though I'd be ecstatic if we could jag a win.

I disagree that this game makes or breaks our season. We are not close to contenders this year but can still make the 8. We shouldn't expect to be knocking off the heavyweights. It's the 50/50 games we need to close out against mid tier competition that will determine our table position come September. If we play to the level we saw against Roosters and Souths, we'll get there. If we play to the level of opposition, we won't.

Thinking about taking my three year old to his first game tomorrow but all the unlicensed seats are sold. Does anyone know if you can take kids into the licensed seating?

I hate it when people do that. It happened on Wednesday night.

A woman complaining about what the QLD crowd were saying to the Blues players when they were at our end.

Pisses me off. Don't go to the footy if you don't want your children to hear it.

My first ever game was an Aus-NZ test at the old Lang Park when I was 10, my old man took me. The "BULLSHIT" chant went up and I was in full swing - I grew up that night haha.



And it never fucking affected me a fucking bit so all the useless old fucking shitcunts can get fucked!!
