We have to ride it out. Much of my winter wardrobe is Maroon and White.
So once again after a couple of days of the continuing halves circus we get served another plate full of sht sandwiches. I'm 
sick to death of this up club and it's attempts to field a team that pretends to give a sht. We simply have no heart and it's thanks to the clowns from the top down to the me generation kids. Someone needs to grow a set of balls and select a team worthy of playing this great game because the sht we are serving up is an embarrassment.

You just can't win games with a nsw cup team full stop. We probably trained all week with Foran and then he goes down, that would stuff up all the combinations and re-jig the backline. Same thing last week with Snake. I am not blaming anyone but the footy god. As humans we are looking for someone to blame and be at fault but all you can do is batten the hatches and hope enough teams don't turn up mentally because we are easy beats, so we can get enough points to avoid the spoon. Its not the players faults they are just not up to it.
Game report
Just got home from the game
When Hiku scored and we went up by 2 I really thought we were going to scrape a victory out but again and throughout the whole game stupid handling errors and penalties cost us!! We gave the dogs way to many penalties and turnover ball
The attitude was there tonight but execution poor. Great to see wolfman back.
Finally Jayden Hodges was a spark of fresh air coming of the bench.
To the Manly fans in the away bay that were at the game well done on turning up and a few Manly Chants got started which was nice to hear!!
Overall frustrating game to be at , should of , could of but didn't tonight

Williame is one of the worst players I have ever seen in a manly jersey in 35 years.. There's a reason this bloke has never won a first grade game.
Blair, wolf, horo, burgess, mason would not get a run at any other club. May not even make Nsw cup at other clubs.
Obviously the injury toll is the reason a lot of these guys are playin but just satin they are not first graders.

He is terrible but he is not on his own there if Tom Symonds is a good player than I really think Manly are
give some younger players a go MCK, Tyson Andrews or someone with more ability than what is out there. There is a reason the rorters got rid of him, I know everyone seems to love him on this forum but he is very average no breaks no big hits no impact at all. Anyway tomorrow is a new day goodnight all.Technical Coach

Not sure why some people made the observations that the Penrith game showed improvements----I've seen the same level of performance all year---slow line speed, lacking enthusiasm, lacking aggression, lacking size, lacking punch, lacking dominant tackles feels like watching under 20's.
Yeah we have injuries which is part of the problem but I want to see some fight and aggression at the very least no matter what the end result is before getting a little confident we might improve for the rest of the year---I am seeing nothing at the moment no shining light to feed off.
We are just going through the motions and like I stated earlier in the season we will improve slightly performance wise at home games and snag the odd win but away from home will be more of the same.

Seriously whats with lying all over the player when defending.We're taking an eternity to get off.The penalties are killing us.We're going to make gay porn the way we're going.Not that there's anything wrong with that.
Yep, what a bitch ass soft cock.. I am at the point of HATING him except for the fact that I know that emotion affects me and not him.
Sigh.
Getting tired of many things but especially the "we had a game plan and we didn't execute it" excuse from the players in pressers as it's become a cliché with no depth.
I wish some 'journo' would follow up with:
Okay then, there are 3 main reasons why that happens:
1)Players don't believe in the plan,
2)Players don't know the plan, or
3)Players know the plan but are incapable of executing it.
which one is it?
I'd almost rather 2v say week after week, constant injuries are ruining our combinations, plus with every injury you have, a weaker player replaces them.
But of course players would use this to not try even more.

And some that aren't from there ,probably should be.

Horo at lock isn't the answer doesn't do enough defence should have replaced symonds. Lyon should have played center.
And yet another nail in the 2V coffin.
I'd say by the Brisbane game when we are 1/12 he will just fall on his sword.
Certainly the lowest ebb since the Northern Eagles days, all the club can do is an almost total clean out, start again and slowly build a dude over the next 5 years.
I'm not calling for 2V's head , but watching him in the box last night you could just see he's resigned to this happening week in week out.
