NRL NRL ANZAC Round 8 2026 Discussion

[roguei]

So...... are the Eels good?

I'd say if your 15th place'd on the ladder than you're probably a bad team. But this game has both teams looking like they have the same attack as the dragons.

Should be an even easier win without their best player now.

 

[JaggedJ]

Manly have bombed so many chances in the last 15 minutes. With Turbo's support play they probably ice a couple of those at least.

That try by Manly looks like something AKP can score next week!

It does

On the other side of the field JAC is probably thinking the same thing about DWZ.

 

[JaggedJ]

These Eels starting to look crumbed and deep fried.

Manly just need to execute.

 

[sydneywarrior92]

Parra crumbling now.

 

[Inruin]

Fogarty is pretty quick

 

[JaggedJ]

Fogarty > Sanders

Parra seem very susceptible to the grind.

 

[sydneywarrior92]

parra have lost the plot now.

 

[Mr Drag]

Any other coaches that are Kiwi in the NRL or is Foz the only one?

Uncle Wayne, Auntie Ivan, Brother Madge, and Andrew Wahbster are honorary Kiwis.

We've disowned Toddy.

 

[Christchurch_Warrior]

So if Manly make the 8 I wonder if Foz will stay as head coach

they got belted by the tits who we outclassed. So logic says we should win easily. But NRL isn't logical this year. Gotta treat them with respect if we don't want to be embarrassed like the dogs were.

*Bun-gee* is the correct annouciation, as I'm told by the Australian media.

Fogarty > Sanders

Of course fogarty is better than sanders. Himself and boyd are the best examples of giving your half 50+ NRL games to come into there own. Can only really compare sanders once he hits that same milestone, but for now he's still learning the game. And the raiders are paying for it.

 

[Inruin]

Be interesting to see how Manly go over the next few rounds. Panthers, Broncos, tigers

I hope they get put back in their cage.

Don't want to see them anywhere near finals.

Dogs are also bottom of the table this year. But yeah of course you have to treat them with respect, there is no easy game in the NRL (unless its against the dragons, of which we still have our 2 games against them to go!).

Parra seem very susceptible to the grind.

Yeah that and playing fast.

Well we know we can grind, as for playing a fast game we can when we switch on, not so much when we are not in the mood because it is a new thing for us, very much a emerging skill for the Warriors.
