Post-Game Discussion Manly V Dolphins [Round 25, 2025]

[Waz13]

Looked like dolphins played their GF last week.

I was quite confident we’d play this way and crack 50. I just needed a dce try in my multi and I would have won $1k off a $5 bet!

Nothing will bring me as much joy in a football game as seeing a fat assed wombat of a front rower keeping pace with our outside backs for the length of the field and going over to score. Of all good tries that one was the most joyous

Going against popular opinion here, but I thought Waddell had a good game.

Yes, he passed to a Dolphin’s player twice but the first time I thought Talau should have been backing him up, the 2nd time it was 5th tackle & we handed the ball to the Dolphins in good territory for us.

He also forced an error from the Dolphins & was Johnny-on-the-spot backing up kicks & loose balls a lot of times.

His effort can’t be questioned IMO.

You can bookmark this post since you won't need to bring it up again for another 2 years.

I'd suggest less time worrying about my views and more time on basic math.

and a English class wouldn't hurt either...

Just sayin'

I like his effort but I thought his defence wasn’t great. In saying that, I think he’s a middle. With leg speed, he can be effective around the middle of the ruck. Just don’t put in a position to make decisions because he’s about as intelligent as Saab.

I didn't watch the match. Go Manly!!

Did the captains decide it was a touch footy match?

Well mate RU a red neck also. That doesn't go well right now during our times of crisis..

Because he caught a ball in the clear and ran 50m? Take that off, Navale had the better game.

They don't even have the same role so they shouldn't be compared. Navale is covering for Jurbo

No Sea Eagle should be fooled by this win

 

[stoodamire]

Any news on Talau? Noticed he came off early.

 

[Dan]

Can I just say can the blokes trying to compare dick sizes in this thread either declare your length, or put your handbags down and just get on with life ffs. It’s footy and a forum dudes, trust me there could be much much worse things going on in your lives than worrying about this ****.

Had to ray shoesmith police this week because of a malicious ex and a poor manipulated child.

Get some perspective

 

[Ashton Davis]

Ran through the highlights just now. Was so good seeing Hoppa commit to just bumping his opposite out of the way and then getting in a sharp put down before the cover came through. A great try among many others today

He was anonymous throughout most of the game.

A win's a win and I'm happy (unlike some on here, unbelievable). Great atmosphere at Brookie today and it was so good to see the likes of Koula, Lehi, Turbo, Brooks, etc in full flight again.

Many fans around me were all saying the same thing....where was this in the last 4 weeks.

A little disappointed that only Sips, DCE and Turbo came around, which they usually do after a win. Another observation was strangely the excessive amount of security on the field after the game.

Anyway, our season's still alive (by a thread).

Considering some of the posts on here today I would hate to have seen what would have happened if we lost

If the game was for a top 4 spot, id say a loss would be preferred to a 58 point win that meant little.

 

[Eagle 1]

Better than Brown, Lodge, Sipley, Jazz, and obviously Waddell IMO.

The only way he can go is up, too.

Lodge and Sipley are props tho.

we are top 8 material after this win...

Wow...very unlucky, Tommy was trying to set him up all game.

Back in the hunt again baby, Roosters went down in flames tonight.
