Well done Manly, what a game they played.

Warriors can still hold their heads high, a top year for them regardless.

Aye.
Found myself warming to some vintage Costigan , "there's a bit of action up in the fishtank" + "the ex-pat Kiwi's have come out of the woodwork for this one"

Will be cheering for Melbourne again, as much as they cheat and are becoming ****s, theres no way in hell im ever supporting Manly in a grand final.

Although I was unhappy about the result yesterday was one of the best days for me, I learned how to change the commentary so I never have to listen to Costigan+the rest ever again. :happy:

Ok - Manly v Easts, who do you go for then ? :ph34r:
Ouch, don't do that to me Craig, makes my head hurt just thinking about it. I'd guess I wouldn't cheer/support either and just hope that in time I could accept the result whatever it may be.

Agree with Robert Craddock in the paper today, I can't believe I will be rooting for Manly this Sunday. What a prick Bellamy made of himself in his press conference - I hope he gets sued.

Anyway, two points that Melbourne continue to deliberately overlook:

(a) Smith wasn't even charged with a grapple tackle, and

(b) But for his previous conviction, he would not even have served one week for the tackle on Thaiday.

Yeah, without Toovey, Fulton, Arthurson and Ridge, it's hard to hate Manly anywhere near as much as in the mid 1990's.

and

(c) if they hadn't played like busteds against the Warriors, they wouldn't have had to worry about it.

As much as I'd love to see Bellamy cry on Sunday this holds true. I might as well stop following the sport if I ever abandoned it.

So excited to finally see a Broncos vs Raiders Grand Final. It's going to be epic!!!

In the other match I'll go for Manly.
