GAME DAY - Manly v Raiders [Round 23, 2015] Toovey Farewell Tour

[Eagleheart]

Refs piggy back the Faders back in the game.......grrrr....!!

Sao has been a little quiet today. I hope he stands up in the 2nd.

This is not looking good given our general dominance that half and how far off their game the raiders have been. I agree with Chez's comment about needing to tighten up defence up the middle.

 

[EagleFromMay1967]

That penalty was a Cecchin special

 

[The Wheel]

****ing soft pen from checkin he will cost us this game - he is a prick of the highest order.

 

[torana355]

Where was a penalty in that? Sao hit Austin at the same time Austin got the ball. He wasn't tackled without the ball.

I was yelling at the tv about that too.

 

[simon64]

Need to score first in the second half.....don't need to give them a look in.

 

[damiennp90]

Killer really should have scored there. Doesn't he realise how good hes going ? Trying to pass 3 metres out. When he's cutting them to ribbons.

 

[Snake]

I don't think I am watching the same game as Vossy. I tend to agree with DCE, we need to improve a lot in the second half to close this game out. Canberra's last tackle options are the only thing keeping us in front in this match. The Raiders forwards are marching up the field, and the starch we showed in D last week has disappeared.

 

[Captain Moondog]

Dalai is pleased. This sort of form will see the Squeels win many, many spoons..

Arthur's in raptures, his clubs payed big money for a couple of great ball handlers.

 

[sean1976]

Well done Horo. Going for the intercept in the line leaving DCE stranded

Reminded me of the 2013 grandfinal

 

[Pittwater Legend]

Great tackle by Croker at the end. Shane that Lyon couldn't put us up 4 tries to 1 and cancel out that joke penalty.

 

[mave]

Im pretty much done after the Tafua shoulder charge penalty.

NRL is dead as we used to know it.

 

[HappilyManly]

Good test of Manly's mental state - we are doing more with the ball, just need to toughen up the middle.
Keep running at Lee the Turnstile, Killer.

Sending the love to Skivi - so much pain.

Jorge, get involved you lazy slug. The guy on your inside has no shoulders, broken foot, broken hand and nose and he runs in to tackle

 

[sheridanstand78]

Manly need to be careful here, Ceccin is not doing us any favours, how is that a penalty, simultaneous tackle on Austin and its a penalty, joke! They are dangerous with their roll on through the middle, we have to score at least 2 more tries here.

 

[EagleFromMay1967]

I DO NOT want to see Dr Smith reappear !!!!
I want to see FORAN !!

 

[manlyfan76]

Keep giving Lyon time and space against Cooker and we win.
Punch it up in the forwards, no silly stuff.
Earn the right to play expansive.

 

[Kiwi Eagle]

We will be without Taufua next week which is a joke

But the Raiders will have guys lining up who have put in headbutts, and dog shots like Hodgson put on

How the bracing yourself is more dangerous than a guy flying in to someone ribs while he is being held still by 3 other guys will do me

 

[sheridanstand78]

Im pretty much done after the Tafua shoulder charge penalty.

NRL is dead as we used to know it.

When you get mongrels like Greenturd making laws and then adjusting them you know we have a problem, What was Jorge supposed to do? the Canberra full back knocked it on, we should have had a line drop out. The game has been sanitized so much now, its meant to be a game where contact is the norm but its being ruined by pedantic officials who dont understand understand common sense.

Refs piggy back the Faders back in the game.......grrrr....!!

That's exactly what I'm seeing. I'd call it one sided, but Checcin is famous for being able to "reach around" to the other side..

 

[Mark from Brisbane]

We missed big Willie in the first half, I'm still thinking he's worth another year .
