You don't need to get your hopes up for sure. It's a long season.
But be happy with this performance. Live in the moment.

The effort needed to break Manly was huge. I hope Webby really uses that as a benchmark because we're going to have to play like rabid dogs to pick up wins.
We don't have gamebreakers the likes of many other teams and so to scrap like that for a win is the only way for us this year. Can it be sustained?
Clarke MOTM for me, he's the real junkyard dog, Jazz is a cat.

For the last two weeks whilst others were losing their shit, hinting at a Sack the Coach thread, talking about how our bottoms were going to be soanked by a nice new wooden spoon for our collection, I’ve been telling you we are a good frikken team. To believe. To not be emotional and lose your heads.
Last night was the first step towards vindication. We were not perfect - but we were good.
This team if we stay injury free will make the 8. If we work for each other and stop doing dumb shit, we are good enough to rip teams apart.
Defensively, we can match it with the best. And we have Rocco and DWZ to come back for additional attacking threat, though Tuaupiki has to be in the side - probably at FB.
That was a solid performance against a good team - a team I can’t stand. Frikken Manly. Siebold, DCE and their band of smug little fukkers.
To stick it up them like that was satisfying. Roosters winning last night also benefits us - we get them coming down from an emotional high after beating the premiers.
We have a team ladies and gentlemen. Well done on last night. Today we turn our attention onto the Chooks.
Another big performance like that should earn us two points at home. The Chooks are another team I hate. 2002 still burns.
I feel like roast chicken dinner.
Solid performances all round from Cup and NRL teams. Let’s do it again next week.

At the airport with the Manly team filing through.
Unnamed Manly player: “Didn’t sleep well last night…. Really sore”
THAT is what we want when they leave our fortress!

Probably and should write positive comments about the whole team, but fresh from watching the game delayed (thanks, fucking Sky Sport Now with all that bullshit), particular credit needs to be given to Barnett and Clark. They were fucking massive.
Egan, showed just how crafty and smart he can be.
Tuaupiki - so much doesn't happen without him on the field. He has to be a permanent fixture in this team. There is just an electricity about him.
Having players like Tuaupiki, Metcalf, Leiataua, Halasima - even RTS, in the squad just makes us so much more dangerous.
Those players are all X-factor.. we're not going to get that x-factor all at the same time in games, but having them on the field is going to shift us to a way bigger attacking threat.

I thought Ford looked great tonight, short stint but made over 100m.
While he has a huge motor, I think these short sharp stint where he can just run hard and tackle everything is a great use of his skill set.
We still have a lot of improvement in this team, excited to see how we go next week

Still on a high, after leaving the stadium.
I will even watch NRL360 this week.
The smile on my face tonight is huge.

How good was Halasima???? The guy looks like a monster.
Watching from my hostel bed in Amsterdam after a big night on the truffles. I wasn’t sure if I was tripping balls or we were actually winning!
Agar must have been teaching the lads to attack after Vegas
Great confidence building win for the lads, I could feel Luke looking more relaxed as the game went on.
I’m looking forward to a week of positive comments here and a break from the “sky is falling, sack everyone” fans

Just got back from the ground. First game my boys have been to. Two very happy kids.
I did confuse them this afternoon. I asked if they wanted to go to the NSW Cup and there might be another game after it. It wasn't until we got on the motorway the younger one and figured it out. If he didn't want to go it would have been too late to call a friend.
The club has got the game day experience down. Builds up the atmosphere, then the team song. Also a nice tribute to Tohu Harris at half time.

One of the pleasing aspects of tonight was us shutting down their superstars, Uka, Tom, DCE,
Hats off to the ref for stopping play to give Jake 10 mins!
They were repeat offending.

Excellent meters from
Barnett 130m
Egan 143m
JFH 120m
The engine room.

How about that energy from the boys
We broke manly by every player stepping up. Fantastic win. I thought we were going to get pumped and it looked like manly fizzled when they realised we weren’t going to be walkovers
Great start to the weekend
We’re on the board!!!!

So, I'm not terribly worried about our attack.
Some of those ref calls were absurd tonight.

No, because this game had every aganist them. They were awesome. All the footy shows plus most of us didn't think they could win. Tonight was awesome
