Game Day - Manly v Cowboys [Round 12, 2015]

[torana355]

Who is the guy in the number 6 and what has he done with Foran? Could it be Foz?

 

[Fluffy]

credit where its due, this is the Foran Parra want. Good first half.

up to our nutz in this one despite DCE, BJ, Starling, Buhrer, &JSL missing all who were in our starting 17 last year.

 

[sheridanstand78]

Its good to see the team scramble so well without the ball, they are doing a good job so far, very pleased with this effort. Considering the first 10 minutes wo so ordinary, the key to winning this game now is controlling the ball, we have to do better there.

 

[Fluffy]

and Mateo whowas not brought here to play NSW cup

 

[the mauler]

The effort the team has displayed the last month it's obvious that Tooves hasn't lost the dressing room.
Good signs.

Who is the guy in the number 6 and what has he done with Foran? Could it be Foz?

Well tommy Symonds in the 6, foz wearing the 7 so it isn't foz in the 6

 

[Ron E. Gibbs]

Who is the guy in the number 6 and what has he done with Foran? Could it be Foz?

Foz is actually wearing the number 7🙂

 

[torana355]

Foz is actually wearing the number 7🙂

Opps lol Well that explains it then, but you get my point 😛

 

[Pittwater Legend]

Gotta go on with it. We led the Panthers at Penrith at half-time and then got done.

The first 10 minutes of this match was ****e but we came through that strong.

 

[Budgie]

Based on that half of footy, to me they play more like a team without DCE looking to create everything himself and not communicating with anyone. Nice to watch Manly playing as a TEAM who care about each other.

 

[HappilyManly]

Who is the guy in the number 6 and what has he done with Foran?

Foran is in #7 and thinks he is Chez 😉

He limped to the sideline in the 25th minute, but has shaken his hammy out.
But geeze we look tired and after 35 minutes we had Mase, Foran and Matty all lying on the ground like they just ran a marathon 😕

TTurbo hopefully learnt about ball security with that perfectly set up try that he blew over the tryline

Lets see if Hasson adds a spark as our forwards are buggered

2v looks suspiciously quiet 🙁

Go Manly

NRL Match Stats

Possession - NQ 52%, Manly 48%
Sets - NQ 18/22 (82%), Manly 16/22 (73%)
Runs/Metres - NQ 97/894, Manly 105/928
Line Breaks - 2 all
Offloads - NQ 4, Manly 5

Tackles - NQ 194, Manly 182
Missed Tackles - NQ 8, Manly 27
Penalties - NQ 4, Manly 3
Errors - NQ 7, Manly 6

Those missed tackles are a worry. Horo has 5, Ballin, Burgess and Matai 3, Snake, Mason, Leary, Jake T and Ligi 2 each.

After his 90 metre run its not surprising that Turbo Tom is the only player from either side to run over 100 metres so far. The next best from either team is......Jorge and shock horror Kieran Foran with 97 each.

 

[HK_Eagle]

- Effort/attitude outstanding
- Fokker playing very well
- Despite a couple of mistakes, T-Turbo looks the goods for a long impressive FG career
- Some silly errors, poor decisions and a bit of bad luck has stopped us from being further ahead.
- Snake ran some outstanding lines and just as impressive with his offloads and set-ups.
- Balin is the worst dummy half runner in the league, but huge Manly heart and defence.
- We have a team that is more than capable of taking this competition out this year in 2015. There is some confidence and self-belief issues, but its there for all to see what we could potentially be.

 

[Andrew..]

Starting to show glimpses of the Manly of old...we've really muscled up in defence when it was needed.

 

[HappilyManly]

Hope we win again and the Foran curse of the Cowboys continues

The Hand of Foz!

 

[simon64]

Foran's having a very good game and the whole team is having a go.
Some good charges from Mason too.
Snake on fire as well as the link on the left.

 

[qldeagle]

I'm gunna be positive and say that the boys are doing us proud.

 

[EagleFromMay1967]

siilly penalties, no discipline.

 

[HoldenV8]

Why is it that we almost always give penalties away when the opposition is working it out of their own half? $hite refereeing or not, we do it almost every time. Its hurt us all season.
