Game Day: Manly v Cowboys [Round 16, 2016]

[Wombat64]

You do realise we were 4 wins and 4 losses at one stage this season?

and your point?

 

[HappilyManly]

Walker's defense makes Wright look good.
Why is he not on the usual LHS

 

[manlyfan76]

Look, you can go on blaming the refs, and the team can go on blaming refs but that is a blame game and doesn't address the real issues, such as poor discipline or inability to adapt. The latter the team has control over and can grow from.

Not sure I "blamed" anyone though I did probably allude that Jake is not 100% in the wrong. Fact is ( in my eyes), they were two soft penalties

 

[Crusher_Cleal]

Lucky for Walker Daley doesn't like to make changes..

DCE said .... Manly are a quality footy side.... LMFAO

 

[Mitch]

Tough half, haven't given many wraps in regards to defense this year to our team, but geez DCE is good defensively. Doesn't miss many tackles like some of the other blokes on the edges.

Full credit to the boys.

Classic stuff from D$E. Couldn't believe that just came out of his mouth. The blind leading the blind here.

 

[andyvb]

Why does Thurston never get penalised when Neos Clearly offside when he rushes. He is getting away with penalties like c smith does

DCE did look frustrated when he said it though...

He doesn't quite seem a leader just yet does he.

 

[Nordburg]

And once again,they are getting dominated by half time and the Barrett/Bozo plan is to still have 2 fresh blokes on the bench

 

[Digsy]

Wh

Classic stuff from D$E. Couldn't believe that just came out of his mouth. The blind leading the blind here.

what do you want him to say???
We are a **** football team?
That would be great motivation ....

 

[wombatgc]

In an ordinary footy side, Jake T is head and shoulders above the lot of them.

 

[HappilyManly]

DCE said .... Manly are a quality footy side.... LMFAO

No - he said if Manly get back to doing the basics right , then they are a quality side

 

[Pablo]

Geez we make a simple thing like a 5th tackle kick look hard

 

[Terry Zarsoff]

Looking forward to Arthurson offering his pearls of wisdom on what's wrong with tag club these days and what they need to do to fix the problems.

Oh wait...that won't happen. That was 2015. Everything is hunky dory in 2016.

 

[CBreeagles]

He doesn't quite seem a leader just yet does he.

I think he's just too media trained and articulate.

 

[HK_Eagle]

And DCE gives us the same old sound byte about having to stay in the grind and play for the whole game... SO, WHEN IS THE TEAM ACTUALLY GOING TO DO IT AND STOP TALKING ABOUT IT?

Do these guys do any mind training in their program, where they train their ability to focus and maintain it for prolonged periods of time under pressure? Or are these sound bytes just hollow phrases and they just hope it will happen by itself one day?

 

[Fluffy]

Green topping the tackle count at half time with 19
