Game Day: Manly v Broncos [Round 10, 2018]

[ricardo]

Why does the ref allow McCullough to come over the top of a tackles player on the ground and clip him on the back of the head? Saw it happen at least three times.

Recorded the game and watching now. Not sure if this is covered elsewhere, but the first Broncos try to McCullough - the video ref looks at several replays which are inconclusive. The try is awarded for insufficient evidence to overturn. Then as soon as it's awarded, fox show another replay from a completely different angle which to my eyes, clearly indicates he doesn't score. That replay even goes on longer than the others, and shows McCullough still trying to get the ball down, well past the point when the official replays stopped, which indicates even he knew he didn't get it down. Commentators of course say absolutely nothing.

If you didn't like the Mc Cullough one you're not going to like the Uate no try....absolute bullshiit call.

Had a cracking night at game with the daughter So good to beat those filthy bogans.

One thing I do like about Tom Ts play is that even with the incredible list of errors over the last few weeks he still wants the ball to affect the game. Good sign.

And we have to play like we did in second half going forward. Smash the middle and look for those nice inside balls. Forget the Willy Nilly second phase till you own the middle with our big forwards. It had to be a plan it was so obvious which is another good sign.

The final siren had Chez and Walks blinking away the tears,
then Kapow wiped his eyes.

Those who question 'whether they care after a loss' should look at the emotions of these players and rest assured that they value winning as much as we do

I just got back from Brisbane and it was one of the best nights I've had out in years. There were a few guys my age (oldies) a couple of rows behind and we had the Manly chant going and the Bronco's supporters could only sit there stunned. I was so proud of the boys last night, I just wish everyone from Silvertails could have been there to enjoy the moment.

This is going to be the greatest moment of my year. There’s nothing like beating the Boncos up here. Kent and Hooper were still giving it to Chez on MMM this morning, wankers. I’m not taking my jersey off this week

Dont worry CorkQLD. I recall one commentator giving it to Cliff Lyons during a darker period in Manly's history. It came back to bite him big time. DCE will show his quality and if the Hodgo experiment happens, he'll be even better.

 

[ricardo]

Holy hell how good was our third prop, Moses Suli?!?! Great to see the young lad rip in

Question .
If we took our home game to Brisbane as a financial gain with ticket sales,why would we do it on a double header when you would have to half the dividends with the other team ??
Or am I missing something ?

 

[Cliffymagic]

Huge turning point for Tommy Turbo after those early mistakes. Instead of crumbling like previous weeks he stood his ground and said give me the ball. And proceeded to bring out the beast mode. Grats Tommy. Good to have u back!!

Because the 4 Clubs get an appearance fee on top of the gate

Manly had a week up there with Corporate functions to get more Sponsors as well

Same deal as the Christchurch game

It would have been fantastic to be there and see that win live.

What were they on about this morning?

 

[midsteyne]

On top of the win we had the best indiginous jersey out of all of the teams,Dosntmatta v tigpies was like watching two packets of smarties go at it.

There is something special about waving goodbye to broncos fans from your seat while the game is still going.

 

[Go manly]

Me too - I had a feeling we would win this one. We were due one and went quite well last week even though we lost.
Well happy with the win.

I thought it was stuff with AFD not scoring and believe it or not had half time full time also but lost ticket in my drunken state

 

[Dave5]

I was at the game with my son and wife.
Was great to see the Broncos beaten especially after going last year with few Broncos supporters who gladly let me know who won.
Lets hope the team has some confidence now and hopefully we can cause a few headaches for the next few weeks.
