Post-Game Discussion Manly v Broncos [Round 10, 2022]

[Yaz Eagle]

Our Middle Forwards were ****. Why did Davey not start instead of Bullemor? Des didn’t use the bench well. Sipley and Davey only came in the 2nd half when our forwards were being overrun.

We have a huge next 2 games and if Des doesn’t use the bench properly we are screwed big time. Crocker again showed his passes are too slow and we need to get Segeyaro on, and Walker has been very quiet the last 2 weeks as well.

It’s clearly being seen those players leaving at seasons end are not showing heart (Taupau and Walker) and we leave players like Sipley and Davey off the field the entire first half.

 

[Budgie]

How has Cherry Evans lost all ability to tackle? What's happened to him?

 

[Ron E. Gibbs]

I think the humidity played a big part.

But not as much as the stupidity.

 

[davohan123]

I think the humidity played a big part.

Are you serious

Humidity played no part tonight we were S$$t full stop.

 

[Chunkytuna]

What a ****en waist of my time and money coming all the way up here to support that piss ****en weak excuse for a manly team. Hang your heads. The whole team were ****. They don’t deserve to wear our jersey. A good thing they were wearing that useless representation of our jersey. That black thing should be burnt and never seen again. So glad I wasted my time. Thanks team.

Really good to see Ola pissed and upset at the end and not really wanting to shake hands,would like to see a few others with that passion.
On another note ..would love to see someone plant one on Gamble.

Fkn Bullemor larfing it up with his former team mates.You only get to do that if you win.

 

[Rafferty]

We completed at 67.7% and had 39% of the ball.

Just about sums it up.

Shattered doesn't even begin to describe it.

We had 39% of the ball because we completed at 67.7% and basically just didn’t give a **** and or just didn’t have any pride in themselves or our jersey.

Shattered as well.

 

[Ron E. Gibbs]

Look, if you didn't see that coming, not only did you not watch last week's game, you haven't really been paying attention all year. We have been awful.

I watched the Bulldogs and Knights play in the opening game and marvelled at how woeful they were. Then I remembered that we struggled to beat both of those teams. Take a look at the other powerhouse teams we've somehow managed to beat: the Titans, the Tigers and the Raiders.

We lack any sign of a coherent plan in attack and our defence out wide, no matter who we put out there, continues to be an abomination. The only thing that can stop teams scoring tries against us is if we hang onto the ball, and we are simply unable to do that.

Our skipper was laughing and joking with him at 26 -0 when Gamble was doing his rubbish.

Enough said

Walker and taupau were great last week mate

 

[Yaz Eagle]

Some stats

Keppie starting prop 4 runs 38 metres
Aloai 8 runs 64 metres
Jake 7 runs 47 metres
Bullemor 3 runs 35 metres
Davey 3 for 36
Taupau 7 for 93
Sipley 3 for 30

Simply not good enough when you look at Haas 17 runs for 160 metres, Jansen 16 for 170, Carrigan 18 for 190. That’s 3 of their forwards having more runs and metres than our 7 combined. That’s where we lost the game.

Actually we lost the game from kick off as the heads dropped then.

 

[Daddycool]

Wow, that was embarrassing! I thought a win tonight was unlikely, considering their recent form compared to ours but not a 38 point thumping.
We do look like we’re carrying some injured players and they’re not playing with much confidence.
They just need to ride this period out, get over the injuries and get a few wins. At full strength, I still think we can beat anyone but they shouldn’t be losing games like that.
Geez…. Just forget it and move on.

 

[CollaroyJo]

Worst game in years

They all apart from Ben t and Haumole should hang there heads in shame

Biggest ever defeat to the Broncos

Ugly lacklustre and it looks like des has lost it.

Turbo should of not played

We are not a team currently

My weekly torture session was just that..... worst effort I can remember

 

[Yaz Eagle]

Walker and taupau were great last week mate

Great against bottom teams but found out against top sides.

Segeyaro definitely needs to come into the side. While Lawmans out, we can’t have Croker out there for the 80.

My assessment:

 

[Budgie]

Hope the Penns enjoy the money they've made from giving away our home game to Brisbane once again and from the abomination that is that black shirt. Both things the fans hate that happen for one reason only $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

Can't argue with that. We may or may not limp into the 8 by beating the trash teams ( of which there are plenty) but we are so far off the pace and so unorganised under pressure its a joke.

Time for a stock take and a rebuild. There's good players here...its not far away...but its also miles away at the same time

 

[The Royal Soup]

BLOW IT ALL UP!!!

Des has not adapted to new NRL at all

Brookie has been selling out this year and we are 100% wins ( yes againat trash teams but the Broncos aren't stars either )

We've been saying this for years BUT the Broncos have been garbage for 5 years so it hasn't cost us points....from now on it will cost us points if we keep selling this game to Brisbane.

Yes its no excuse tonight...we'd have lost at Brookie or on Mars
