tis their term not mine
Our erstwhile,(and currently absent) trolls have a ready made excuse for their team's abysmal display.
As you know my somewhat well known RL birthplace is just a little North of Sydney

Listened to the whole match on ABC Country in the car from my dad's house down on the peninsula back to my house - as I was driving over the Bolte Bridge I missed the last minute of the game due to reception - who was BOG?

Thanks Tigger.
And I heard them mention that Billy was clutching at his wrist - anything come from that?

good win,
Not always pretty, but an away win at brookvale, you take them anyway you can get them,
We are starting to have a gritty look about us, even if the attack is not quite there yet,
4 wins , 3 losses, 1 draw, we need to start improving on that,
I believe we are steadily improving, and could still be a sleeping giant in this comp yet.
Let them write us off.

ABC radio gave Adam Blair best on ground... and I have to say he's been outstanding this year! Showing the form he always displays for NZ for us now on a weekly basis!
White back in the side is huge too - his first two games have been very good - back to 06-07 form rather than 08. Looks hungry again!

Much better performance last night, thought everyone stood up. Forwards made yards, cronk seems to have much more time now Finch is in the team. Hoffman starting to get some form and heading towards where he was a couple of years ago. Tomane looked pretty comfatable out there. And think Cross should be in the 17 on that performance.
MotMfor me was Cam smith

Great win, best of the season for us! It was great to see the manly supporters taking down their '40-0' banners and leaving with about 10 minuted left. And Although Smith got man of the match, I think Turner should have been. Anyway, we looked much more stable attacking and our defense was superb as allways!!

Agreed, it was a good win. A much better all round performance by all the guys. Less errors, more cohesion in attack and fewer defensive lapses. Bodes well for the remainder of the season.
Edit: And a distinct lack of wanker trolls, although I am sure they'll show up soon to whinge worse than Orford on heat.

havent watched the game as of yet but from whiteys stats he must have played an above average game and good on him for it too.
winning against manly at brookie (even with the current issues sorrunding them) is a huge achievement for the boys and to win so comfortably without a quality player like sika is even better
when he comes back, and proctor comes back, that will be when we are finally at full strength irecon
howd finch go?
