    holy **** :admin :lol:


    Manly looked competitive for the first 10 minutes of the game and that was it, Melbourne just monstered them!

    Watmough had a shocker in defence, Beaver had a shocker, in fact it was hard to choose a single Manly player who played well.

    They just never managed to settle into a groove, and they looked sluggish and like they were playing at half the speed of the Storm.

    Inglis had a blinder, what a talent.

    Well done Storm, you looked like you belonged in the GF, unfortunately Manly didn't :lol: Seems they saved their worst game of the season for GF day :|

    The peach couldnt win a trick towards the end of this season.Felt like **** for a true legend of the game..Im not even a souths fan but i know Taylor pretty much spat in his face.

    Just a few seconds before Parra scored near the end, I thought Peachey tackled a player from an off side position, I saw one of the Norths players look towards the ref when it happened too. I wonder if the ref didn't have the stomach to penalize the Peach which would have resulted in Parra winning because of Peachey's penalty. They won anyway though, so no harm was done.

    Yeah, something was definitely up with taylor and Peach, and whatever personal problem Taylor had with him, he let it affect team selection at a vital time. That and his selection of Hegarty.

    Next year should be a good one.
    I'm tipping Parra ( As usual with Parra, they have goon juniors that are ready to step up) to win the minor premiership, and the Storm, Manly, and Cowboys to make up the rest of the top 4 in that order.

    Souths probably won't do any better next year. I think 2009 will be the year where Souths step up significantly again.

    Everything you said is true :-(

    Beaver panicked everytime he touched the ball, Watmough...jesus i could go through the whole team with exception of Matai who played ok especially in defense.

    Manly wont win a GF without a 5/8, Lyons always looks dangerous at centre but he def aint a 5/8.

    It will be the same top 4 next year.

    It was a sucessful year for Manly so im proud :happy:happy:happy

    Hey Boppa, you been keeping an eye on Scotty McDonald in the football?
    He looks to be coming along well, and is scoring a few for Celtic (he scored a hatrick the other day). It looks as though we will have some ok strikers come 2010.

    Helicopter Sunday who can forget Scotty McDonald. Then Celtic sign him.

    This season seems to fit well in the Celtic outfit but since im a Rangers fan through my Scottish Background i cheer him on but always hope Celtic lose.

    He is having a great season and it would not surprise me if he doesnt start more games now along side Vennegor of Hessilink.

    McDonald has been in my eyes one of the unlucky strikers not be selected for the Socceroos. I would love to see him play more for the Aussie especially as we lack a speedy Striker as we have always played Aliosi,Viduka and Kennedy of late all big.

    I would love to see him play a Right Wing role for the Aussies with Kewell on the Left Wing and either Viduka in the Middle or Kennedy like a Dutch system.

    McDonald i thank you for Helicopter Sunday you Legend Scottie you F-ING Legend.

    I hope you know what im talking about with Helicopter Sunday Pecks. If not check out Helicopter Sunday on youtube.

    If it wasn't for Cameron Smith's woeful kicking he would have been way off.
