Game Day: Manly v Dragons [Round 14, 2019]

[The Royal Soup]

Ball was grounded in the in goal

How ****ing stupid are these refs

 

[DUFFMAN]

We can't beat Newcastle's for and against at 6pm tonight...?

My mistake, for some reason I was thinking the Roosters were playing the Knights.

I'll join you.

Found out 2 hours before the game one of my last remaining Aussie friends just lost her battle against Breast Cancer. Only in her 40's.

I'm so sorry to hear that mate. Life can be tough but it's so good to be able to enjoy an amazing manly win today.

 

[Pittwater Legend]

Turbo 146 points in SC
Anyone know what the highest score is?

Yes. I don't know what it is but Tom Trbojevic actually owns the record for highest score already. It is much more than 146

 

[Spartan Eagle]

When Dufty was ankled tapped in goal (before that try) he falls over and the ball is grounded.... Is that not the rule, can he play on???????

Only against Manly.

 

[Jerry1]

The refs missed it or ignored it so that 2nd Dragons try was illegitimate

I just watched it again. Defo should have been a line drop out...

 

[HappilyManly]

Great win by all 17 players

Sad that the Ref's offside rule kept the Drags hopefull in the first 40

Rain held off

[Simonmyers11]

Great win considering how bad the refs were

 

[Shoe1]

The dragons will take a lot of positives from the first 5 minutes of that game and the last 2 minutes also.

Sorry to hear mate.

Re the "grounding" decision, I wonder whether there needed to be a defending player's hand on Dufty when the ball touched the ground in goal? That's the only thing I can think of as to why it wasn't called... well, apart from just plain ineptness from the officials.

Condolences mate.

 

[Bring back the.... Biff?]

@strone33 how good was that!

 

[globaleagle]

I'll have to watch it again just to work out my 3,2,1 scores...then I'll watch it again just to be sure.

 

[grassy]

Cade cust try was a good en, both walker and cust reading the play perfectly with plenty of urgency. Walker had a good game. Just hope he stays cool.

The Sea Eagles are wearing black armbands today in memory of Kye Yates, the cousin of Reuben Garrick.
Kye died in a Quad Bike accident last weekend, aged 10.
Our thoughts are with the family.

For NSW and Australia maybe. But I'll give it up if he anything but the fullback and nothing but the fullback at Manly.

Yeah I was being sarcastic, mocking the supercoaches on here who have advocated for that change

 

[Kiwi Eagle]

Surely that game puts to bed the notion of Parker over Walker

Quality, early ball for once and he was unstoppable. Parker has been good and solid but he doesn’t have those extra gears that Walker does
