9's Game Day (for the fans)

[HK_Eagle]

Siro in under the posts. 2 minutes to go

 

[HK_Eagle]

Got out of jail with the Warriors dropping it over the line under the posts. We should hold on to win this.

That was a big lol at all our "bargain" recruits. Uate was slow and offered absolutely nothing going forward and Sironen with awful defense.
Obviously it's only the nines but not good signs. Cullen looks like a nifty pick up though!

 

[HappilyManly]

Manly are all over the Warriors in attack as they are without Kata, Johnson.

4-4 at HT as Kelly and Taupau missed an easy tackle

Anyone's game at HT

Manly 15-11

Joey Lussick, Walker and Cullen were the best. Great power try by Siro 🙂

 

[Woodsie]

FLOGGED them!!!!!!!

They'll be themselves in the regular season, this is just a bunch of recruits put into a side to get through uninjured. It'll take time to make a call on how they are, especially defencively seeing it is the nines where defence is bound to be bad

 

[The Wheel]

Wow what great start to the year we must be top 4 based on that. ;-/

Anyway hopefully no injuries

 

[Disco]

Good to get a win, this gives us a good shot of going through as the Dragons looked awful

Pretty uninspiring though

Cullen looked lively

Uate looked flat

Defense for their two tries were non existant

Only 9s though so always hard to gauge

 

[HappilyManly]

A win and no injuries - already better than our 2016 start.

Agree on Uate. He did not look fast, powerful or dangerous.
Was that Siro with that horrible missed tackle? That was truly abysmal.

Yep, Cullen looked good and the only real Manly player (apart from a brief first half cameo from Walker) to threaten the defense

Such mixed emotions for me. I kind of want us to lose both games to avoid injury, but I'm so glad we won. A whole lot of good players - I thought Cullen was our standout.

RE: Uate....I must have been watching a different player than you blokes...he beat the first and mostly the second defender every time. I thought he was great. Most of our other new recruits also scored a try.

Gosh, do we have to be negative ALL the time?

Godinet injured his head. Ohh wait.

Ryan don't let facts get in the way for a good old fashioned bagging

 

[manlywarringah]

Did the kiwi commentators even know we were out there? I know they have to push the warriors during their commentary but that was ridiculous!

How big is Jono Wright?

He is much bigger than I remember. Maybe the warriors black made him look smaller

 

[globaleagle]

I think livestream and the internet hate manly.

I tuned in to watch dragons v eels and not a problem.

our game comes on and it's like 2 or 3 seconds of play then freeze.

It ****ing does my head in.

Then at half time and at the end of the game everything is smooth again.

I'd love some tech head like @Dan to explain to me why it doesn't buffer outside of games. The number of people watching stayed the same so it wan't like 1000 viewers went down to 10.

Other people on livestream go ok?

and **** the whiners about the game which was all of 18 mins long and our first hit out, **** off and watch something else ****ity drips

woodsie made this thread for you already.

Have to agree with you there Ryan. Uate must of beat at least the first two defenders each time and made 15 to 20m with each of his runs. Cullen was great and walker looked fast. Jorge has put on some size looked as big as Marty.

 

[double hoops]

Yeah mine was fine

Taufua was playing right in the middle a lot too (which I thought was interesting). Are we seeing a transition to the forwards? I was thinking that during the game. Or maybe just a nines experiment?

Did tom Wright get a run
