Game Day: Manly v Broncos [Round 10, 2023]

[eaglebuzz]

Round 11 croker has to go or be 14
Bring in gordan
At least he may offer something in attack.

He is our only hope of turning our side's fortunes around. You just can't compete in the modern game without a half decent hooker.

 

[Carl]

It's the stupid mistakes that are killing us. You can't give a good team that much ball and expect them not to score points.

 

[God]

Jake giving it to Tom at half time, is a true reflection of how **** Toms become

 

[Wombat64]

Koula will ring Rugby Union at half time

Do you care? He's shown nothing

 

[The Royal Soup]

Couldn't agree more. It’s ****ing pathetic. Cannot believe the state of the club after witnessing that near decade of dominance over 10 years ago. I'd prefer if they folded the club and gave our spot to a Perth club at this stage. The last few years have been significantly more painful than they have been rewarding. We're not even remotely close to where we need to be.

sadly i agree with you!

 

[Ben]

I'm sorry but turbo is a cat. No venom in his runs, and just just drops like a sack of potatoes when he hits the line. Even his missed cover tackle on cobbo was soft.

Was thinking the exact same thing with that cover tackle. 2 years ago he would of saved that. Now he is just so tentative in any form of contact. Jeez it’s hard to watch

 

[Thewestisbest]

FMD. Spoony sitting like a mute in the chair while DCE addresses the team. What a joke.

 

[EaglesDontTweet]

We need to bring this home game back to Brookvale. We probably would have only been down 16-0.

 

[niccipops]

Doing what my much higher paid professional role models are demonstrating to me (a mere sausage-roll eating nobody)…. But you wanna question my gumption???

Yes.

 

[davohan123]

Well at least i will be 2/2 in tipping.

Boy this could get very ugly in the second half.

Feel sorry for all the manly supporters, members who are attending magic round live and are having to put up with this performance.

 

[Darknstormy]

When you have a coach that says johns and Parker have been solid all year then you have to wonder what the staff are smoking

Turbo is saving his body for origin that's why. 😔

 

[Jerry1]

Any reason why Lawton hasnt been used yet?

Not that it really matters.

I dont think Ben will get a run, if he does it will be his turn to be the best Turbo on the field.

Can he play fullback. 😛

 

[The Royal Soup]

Jake giving it to Tom at half time, is a true reflection of how **** Toms become

i wouldn’t blame Jake for leaving this **** show to be honest

 

[Rafferty]

Well if you shop around there is still $151 about us getting the the spoon.

Tempting…..

 

[JBW]

Well one positive, my multi bet is looking good. Just need 44+ points!

But wow, 50% completion, it all went south after the first mistake by Aloia, then came the second mistake and the first try. Then the short kick off. Try number 2. Then a piggy back penalty, try number 3.....see the pattern. Dropped ball and penalties= tries.

But never fear, Burbo still has to come into the game.

 

[Ron E. Gibbs]

If even half of our squad played with the effort, toughness and determination of Croker on his modest salary, then we would not be in this situation...

I love Croker's effort as well, mate, but it's just not enough. It never has been enough and it never will be enough. He's not a dummy half's arsehole. He keeps showing up and he keeps trying, but he just doesn't have the skillset required. It beggars belief that he is still our only option.

 

[Simonmyers11]

Our left side defence is such a problem. Johns, Parker, Tuialigi. Especially up against the speed of Walsh

 

[Peter C]

Gutho’s competitiveness in Turbo’s body would be something special

I would gladly have Gutho's competitiveness in Gutho's body and leave out Turbo altogether

 

[JenEagle]

It’s almost a replica of the game last year.
