Round 8: Scoreline Predictions

[DJG]

What are your Scoreline predictions for round 8?

On the fence for this one, but I feel like we'll be no match with a new spine.

Wests Tigers 6
Manly Sea Eagles 32

 

[innsaneink]

34-16 silvers

 

[matchball]

Same as usual. Trailing 20-0 at half time but 'win' the second half to still lose 30-18.

 

[tiger_one]

Us by 1 or more. 😉

It’s my birthday on Sunday. Is my team going to spoil it for me? I’ve got a strange feeling we could do this. If we can come out of the blocks aggressively and ambush Manly and hold our defence we could get our first win. I’m going to say we’ll hang on 26-18.

 

[Halbrowne61]

It’s not my birthday on Sunday so Manly 1-12.
But hope you have a good day SNS.

 

[Harvey]

Manly 38 tigers 8

 

[Tiger Woods]

Tigers 25
Seagulls 18

 

[Merlot]

the odds of a win surely are in our favour after soooooooooooooooooo long

I think this is a game where we get an insight into the reality of the second half wins.
Do other teams go soft on us through pity?
Or are we just warming to the game when the final siren sounds?
Either way, Manly will have enough aggression to serve up a dose of reality.

Their pack is more physical they have one of the best 7's in the game, goal kicker is back and they have the bloke at the back who always makes us look inept even though his current form has been ordinary. Cant see how we win this one - and will need to try and contain them early so it doesn't blow out.
If they prove me wrong I will be very happy.

 

[SeanT]

Think we will get touched up honestly. 44-10

The first one. They just turn up the second half because they know they have won already

Before a ball was kicked I said it would take eight weeks for this side to gel. I didn’t think we’d be 0-6 but close to. Having a full week off to tweak our attack could be a godsend this week. I also like the inclusion of Bula and the form of Tupou so we may score 20 points plus.

I think Manly will score either 24 or 30 points so let’s go for:

Tigers 25 Manly 24 🤞

Why would they take 8 weeks to gel? The Dolphins gelled over the preseason. Unprofessional to not knowing each other's plays by now.

 

[tonza]

Same as usual. Trailing 20-0 at half time but 'win' the second half to still lose 30-18.

I think the half time score will more likely be 30 nil to manly. We might get to put on our usual 12 points in the second half, when we wake up and decide to play.

 

[Saturnalia]

81-0

 

[tigerballs]

81-0

That's including 3 field goals.

A quarter of the season is already gone
It's now or never
Btw happy bday for Sunday & don't forget to include a tigers victory in your wish before you blow out the candles
If we do win it will be like all our birthdays have come at once
🎂

I'll apologise now. I'm doing the 5hour drive down and back tomorrow, so we're going to lose. Probably by 16 or more 😔
