Des Press Conf

[Mataiforever]

So the solution to fill full back is to put Funa or Garrick back there and bring in Jorge, this sums up how poor our selections are and we allow a rookie to play for another team in the mean time? This is just adding to the confusion that many of us feel right now!

Tom is back next week.

Anyone would think we lost by 40, not 2 points.

Team down on experience;

Some hometown ammonium nitrate dump refereeing; and a

Critical injury for the fullback at a key moment.

It could have been much worse.

40 20 2 6 points doesnt matter a loss and a critical loss is what it is, a loss of 2 points we desperately needed, we drop the ball and give away penalties that are crucial then cant defend our line at important times of the match, discipline and basic fundamentals like holding a ball should not be an issue for a professionally paid athlete, its annoying and frustrating to watch, at full strength we are dangerous but how often are we full strength and these players that should be thankful for game time and opportunity arent developing their game and making a mark,except our props good work guys proud of you taupau addin paseka keppie that is a rotation you can have hope with, can you imagine how strong we would be with our roster when our stars are back if certain players were developing and excelling garrick elliott suli crocker waddell gosiewski

Bids fair to be the world’s longest sentence.

 

[ManlyTragic]

Tom is back next week.

Well it’s a bit late now !!!

just sayin!

 

[Kalvin]

Des will advise that we just didn't complete our sets and did enough to win the game but didn't... blah blah

 

[qldeagle]

Yeah and we'll address the problems during the week which we'll have to fix quickly. I think we did enough to win it but discipline was the problem. Yadiyadiya

 

[The Who]

I don't know if it's possible to defy a NRL directive but please Manly officials, refuse to give the six player interviews during the week. I'm sick to death of hearing the same tripe.
And, frankly, unless the players interviewed are wearing Dunces caps then it will just be sad. So very very sad.

Not to worry. I won't be bothering to read or hear that tripe anymore this year. Just bulls**t words from 2nd grade flog.

 

[dowdz]

Ummmm ahhhh ummmm ahhh that about sum it up

 

[Bearfax]

I wonder if Days of our Lives or The Young and the Restless are on the teve next week when Manly plays. Des wont budge so I will and watch something else.

 

[joeboy]

I fear My remote would go through the tv IF I watched des get interviewed now. We either have **** players playing Or we have a good team with bad tactics/structure.

both are on him.

 

[The Royal Soup]

What a pathetic press conference from Dumb Des!

fumbled and mumbled along “possession... it’s hard with the weight of possession.... hard to stop momentum”

when asked if he would bring Hoppa back - “um..... um.... we will have to assess yeah um... have to asses the yeah um injuries... so yeah have to asses”

then woffled on about how well we did in the second half.... like are you ****ing kidding me!!.

Where’s the accountability??? Where’s a rocket up the players and put them on notice!

he’s ****ing lost it

I cant watch his pressers

 

[XV-1]

DCE said no in interview

 

[double hoops]

At least Dashing didnt rule out Hopa coming back.

 

[EaglesDontTweet]

Journo: "Would you consider bringing a guy like Albert Hopoate back?"

Des: "We're going to have to look at injuries, Albert's not going to solve the situation"

My take on Des interview Hoppa is not in consideration, I expect he is on way out.

Hopefully I'm wrong.

 

[The Who]

What a pathetic press conference -- and what inane questions from the so-called 'media'.
Where was the: "You've used the least number of players in the comp with 22, yet you keep picking the same team who simply haven't been good enough; why won't you give a chance to the other 11 untried players in your roster?"
Q: "Josh Schuster and Albert Hopoate are rated as two of the best junior footballers in NSW, why are you avoiding picking them?"
"Is it your game plan to blame or are the players you picked tonight simply not up to First Grade standard?"
Instead we get platitudes.
