Game Day: EF2 - Manly v Panthers [Finals Week 1, 2017]

[Harvies elbow]

DCE needs to get in the refs ear on the way off.
Point out the penalty count and hope for a square up.
It's a joke !!

 

[Ron E. Gibbs]

Penalties are killing us. We look pretty good with the ball. Problem is we haven't seen much of it.
Fingers crossed we can settle down in the second half.

 

[Dan]

Ambushed and the refs are on board for the rub.

 

[HoldenV8]

I don't think its as bad as it looks despite us being down by 6. Penrith's only try came from luck and their 2 penalty goals have come from dodgy calls.

 

[eggson]

Rugby league heartland must win at all costs. Crowds and dollars so jobs at hq are safe

 

[mave]

Great result so far, given possession flow and penalties, etc.

IF the momentum turns around in the 2nd half we have got this.

 

[HappilyManly]

Seriously, from the replay WTF was that penalty for? The Penrith player barely got up to play the ball and we get penalised after 2 or 3 passes.

But Manly are 100% at fault. 😡

They have constantly tried the patience of the Ref and therefor he looks for penalties 😎

The mindset must change or it's over in 40 minutes, for the satisfaction of some player's chest beating

 

[Larry David]

Seriously frustrating half, but somehow we are down by 6.

Manly by 10

 

[Kiwi Eagle]

We just gave away 2 penalties in our own 20 and handed them 2 points after a try they scored.Holy crap WHY

To be fair, that last one they penalised has happened over 50 times in that half, they just decided to pull that out of their arse then, just like they did on the Kelly hold down which wasn't even in the top 40 for hold downs in the half

 

[Spartan Eagle]

Seriously, from the replay WTF was that penalty for? The Penrith player barely got up to play the ball and we get penalised after 2 or 3 passes.

We are lucky we copped a penalty.. had play continued they were over..still the refs are ****ed. We are still in this game considering the errors we have made and poor kicking. Hopefully we can get repeat sets from astute kicks..

 

[Clay]

As usual our discipline is letting us down.
Too interested in the niggle

 

[Fibro Eagle]

Hopefully green are setting them for a run on last kicking early there wingers are dropping everytime hope to see more running out wide in the 2nd 1/2

 

[andyvb]

We will have the wind at our back this half

 

[Killer03]

We haven't been great and it's been all Penrith. If we come out with the right attitude there is points there for us.

We do however need to readjust to Cartwright.

 

[Waz13]

It's on you Baz to sort this out. Walker just needs to play and shut the f*** up. We are still a big chance refs are killing us

 

[COMMANDER]

Get back to basics boys, complete sets, don't miss tackles, don't give penalties.

 

[Sillybus]

The possession will even out and cherry was up on the Ref as soon as the half time hooter went questioning what on earth those calls were. There will be square ups don't worry we have this. 1 lucky try off a kick they have nothing

 

[Jerry1]

Load of sheite dished up so far.. Need to put some effort in. Guess we'll see if Baz can motivate his team or not.. Over to you Baz... 🙂

 

[Pepi]

If we lose we can thank Walker and Fonua blake. Changed momentum with bone headed play

 

[HappilyManly]

The SFS does have a strong southerly in the second half - use it wisely Manly.
