| I think we need to put together an RAB committee to kidnap Hasler.

I had a feeling Manly would win this one, they are a very classy outfit. Leeds made a good fist of it though. I shudder to think what Manly would do to us right now. They would probably put on a hundred.'"
I know. I'm not gloating. Just having a little harmless fun.
What would we give to be reaching WCC finals at the moment...

| Nah, I put it down to Manly being the better team on the night
I dont think anyone could have lived with them in that 10 minute period just after half time.
Though Jamie Lyon was their weak link though. When was the last time you saw Keith Senior make easy yards like that

Yeah, Leeds going down fighting was the big story of that game. Pretty craven 'this way we should sell more copies' editing there.

| Quote debaser="debaser"Jusr waiting for the Leeds' fans responses:
Either
a) it doesn't matter its just a friendly anyway
or
b) we didn't want to win, we are concentrating on the league
or
c) they had an Aussie ref
or
d) at least we got there, you jealous Bulls fans, you are rubbish and are never going to get into a WCC again
Actually, can't argue with d really.
'"
Or, how about e) we can't win expect to everything, Manly showed how wide the skills gulf between the NRL and SL still is
Naturally I'm disappointed but as a Leeds fan of nearly 20 years I've plenty of experience of them losing games big and small so it doesn't affect me too much

| Quote Bully_Boxer="Bully_Boxer"Manly deserved the win though. Thought they were the better side.. more than the scoreline suggests. Credit to Leeds for the late rally to bring some respectability but I still feel SL has some catching up at club level too despite the recent WCC results.
Good match to watch though.
On another note, the Bulls like other SL clubs will not doubt be keeping a close eye on negotiations between Manly and Orford go. I expect he'll re-sign though unfortunately.'"
i think a lot of the nrl teams have a long way to go in catching manly too

Well said. I missed my first WCC for a few years as I was working in the evening, and was pretty sick about that, as this Manly team are indisputably amongst the ranks of the best there's ever been, and such teams deserve to be watched at any opportunity.
Phil Clarke (for it was he) pulled out the 2008 stats showing that, on average, it's the 3rd quarter when Manly come out and pulverize teams, and boy didn't they just. Nobody could have lived with that, and it is no disgrace to Leeds that they were on the receiving end. It's one thing knowing what they are likely to do, but quite another doing something about it.
Manly have a rare blend of players and as a team, are currently head and shoulders above anything else in the game. I thought it was a treat to watch.

| Just shows how good Manly are, when they turned it on, they were unstopable against one of the best defences in SL, shows the gulf between the 2 leagues.
I would love to have watmough in our team he is absolute class, was the best player on the pitch, and looks to have everything in his game.
