Manly seem to be defending brilliantly. Could be field goal time
Roosters desperately want storm to win this
A very bad result for the roosters who will lose 3 or 4 of last 7
Yay. Great work Dessy and the boys.
I called Manly to kick the FG on the 63rd min
Great win manly.
Storm
Souths
Raiders
Manly
Roosters in that order
Roosters will lose to raiders Panthers and Souths. Also possibly to dragons
Could have saved a heap of energy if they went the field goal at 10-4, anyway Stephanie.Syd it does not affect the Roosters.
Manly with
…….that win are in the box seat ahead of Canberra now four a top four finish.
The raiders have a very difficult draw and will drop out of the four, maybe.
For a top four finish it should read.
I wish it were true woody, but manly still play top 8 teams (storm again) all the way in, so a big challenge ahead.
But If Des can keep the belief throughout the club…. who knows.
Great defensive battle and a good win. I to think Manly will make the four.
The Raiders play Penrith, Sydney, Melbourne, Cronulla, Manly & Warriors twice. Can not envision Raiders winning anymore than three of those seven.
Stev..Syd I think that last game between Sydney and Souths could be a danger for both clubs. I think they will smash each other up and the next week in the semis they have to play a top four side each.
Especially if they are both playing for a home semi. Bad timing for a local derby. This game will be the end of both of them.the next week both vould lose and no week off. I think its fair to say also if they finish 2nd and 3rd then they play each other the week after abd the loser of that can kiss 2020 Hello.
So true Frank, unless one team finishes 2nd and the other 4th, then Sydney will meet Souths two weeks running.
Manly have now stepped up and entered the real premiership candidates category.
Ive been using the ladder predictor on the NRL website and notice if Manly’s win triggers a form slump for the Storm then they could lose the next 3 to Brisbane in brizy, then Souths away and Canberra then Souths and Sydney have pegged them back to the pack.
So that last game between Souths and Sydney just might be a minor Premiership battle and Souths win the home crowd averages when 60k Rooster fans turn up to cheer them to the Minor Premiership.
Ahahahahahah
One of the best gamesa of the year. Well done Manly. Always satisfying to see Storm lose
Ladder predictors are as useless as petrol pricing enquiries. Injuries..suspensions..team attitudes. Better asking the Wiggles to Wake up Jeff for an opinion. Anyone who ends up in the top 6 can win the title… Stop wasting your time with fan bias and favoritism. I fully expected my team Manly to lose by 4 points tonight. The competition is up for grabs…for whoever wants it in the top 6.
Manly played well…against the competitions best. That’s what scares me. After last year under Barrett…dare to dream. Could it be? Hard to adjust to pathetic to great potential. Weird year and tunaround for the ages.
Same team…different attitude.
To all the non believers….🖕
Precsilla 🤣🤣😂🤣😂🤣🤣😂🤣😂🤣🍺😂🍺🤣😂🤣🤣🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🐲🐲🐲🐲🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤥🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Proof is in the pudding eagleeye47 that to win a premiership these days, a top four finish is a vital must do.
Its 6 weeks early but I think the top four will be, not necessarily in this order, Melbourne, Sydney, Souths and Manly.
But as you say 6 weeks is a long time and there will be season ending and standard injuries, suspensions, form and refereeing issues.
Manly hitting the killer punches at the right time of the year. Typical below tbe radar Dessie…awesome. I was at the Manly Leagues Club tonight…surreal experience.
Edwoodwood1 in the Souths v Dragons forum you pointed out as a fact is that since 2007 Bennett trained teams have played 8 more times in semis than rooster coached teams.
Another attempt by you to manipulate statistics to favor your argument just like your constant reference to home crowd figures choosing to omit the fact that the majority of fans at rooster home games are opposition supporters as mentioned by the commentators just about every time.
More importantly, tell us what your research has uncovered as to why the roosters no longer have a grass roots juniors competition and why they are struggling with memberships, the 2 most important factors in a strong case for relocation.
Why have the roosters changed their name for the 4th time to the current title of Sydney Roosters?
I read a media article the current name change was to cater for the rooster’s widening fan base.
What widening fan base? LOL
Sydney Roosters has also failed so as a staunch rooster man have your researching skills revealed another name change in the pipeworks?
Firstly I dont foow the Chooks but everyone knows it is a well known fact that only a fool as yourself could deny, that the NSWRL handed Souths a massive amount of junior territory to Souths from Easts in the 1950s.
Secondly you as a Biased Souths fan naturally have to come up with a rubbish excuse that the Roosters massive home crowds are dominated by opposition fans, fools such as you might go to the Footy in Souths beanie, scarf, shorts, socks, jersey, flag with three teeth in your gob but most Roosters fans dress ready for a night out after the game in cloths that will pass them onto the next event on the evenings agenda.
Thirdly Bennett semi seccsess rate is 45% since 2007 onwards while Robbo is 64%. Thsts a fact that can’t be debated, you cant argue sgainst facts.
Fouthly the Sydney Roosters are a mega buisness organisation unlike Souths who do not own a leagues club and are still registered at the NRL headquarters as Eastern Suburbs RL Football Club.
Sydney is a marketing name that descibes not only there district but includes all their fans that came from all over Sydney to watch them play at the Sydney Football Stadium or the Sydney Cricket Ground. Thats why they have 19k average home crowd to Souths 14k, marketing is the answer not buying has beens and mobodies like Souths.
I know the truth hurts you, but fools need to be hurt to embrace the truth.
Should read
Firstly I dont go for the Chooks….
The main reason teams scrambled or attempted to change team names to Sydney back in the 90’s was to avert the NRL relocation of teams during/post Super League fiasco. I think the Sharks and Bulldogs did..or considered trying to change to Sydney Bulldogs at one time.
Edwoodwoodwood1 still waiting for your research results but in the meantime any explanation why Souths are running 2nd at the moment despite not getting to play wooden spooners Bulldogs 2 times in 5 weeks to boost their for and against record?
Add to that missing 5 big guns through most of last 8 weeks.
Exactly and thats my point on that subject, infact Canterbury Bankstown Berries changed to the Bulldogs in 1977 then to Sydney Bulldogs in 95 and won the 1995 premiership against Manly 17-4, then in 1998 they were known as just Canterbury Bulldogs Dropping the Bankstown. Then at one time they droped the name Canterbury and were only known as the Bulldogs, then in 2010 they went back to Canterbury Bankstown Bulldogs.
Same club with six name changes all in the Buisiness sense of marketing.
Eastern Suburbs always registered as ESRLFC as a result of clever marketing stratergies changed to Sydney City but later dropped the city to finally evolve as the Sydney Roosters. 3 changes.
On game day take a train from Penrith to Central and just see how packed the train is with Syney Roosters fans when it arrives at Central. Beleive me the strategy has worked.
When Souths fans go over seas and people ask where they are from do they say Sydney or South Sydney. Of coarse they say Sydney. That is what the Roosters have targeted with great success. You can live in any suburb of greater Sydney and you are a Sydney faithfull supporter. Thats why at this late stage of the season Sydney Roosters have the highest home crowd average than any other Sydney team. Briliant business people run the show at the Roosters.
Balmain also changed their name to Sydney Tigers in 1995-96 before becoming a joint venture club with Wests Magpies in 2000.
While Souths useless backyard organisation got left behind in the stratergy markets and eventually being expelled from the NRL in 00-01, for being poor with no brains or structure.
To this day they can only muster up on crowd average to their home games 14k to Sydneys 19k.
Steve..Syd alias twityone, any other facts and history lessons your foolish mind can consume will have to wait, as we shall just let these recent home truths sink in before you can deal with anymore truthful facts.
Ahahahah good one Eddy. Twityone is such an appropriate name for this thick skull lad.
