Game Day: Manly v Eels [Round 1, 2017]

[Pablo]

That's a bs penalty

How is he supposed to give him space to play it when he's a foot from the line. BS

 

[HK_Eagle]

Uate's put in a good showing so far. Great to see

 

[Mark from Brisbane]

Uate is going ok isn't he!

 

[simon_eagle]

Uate is killing it. Very impressed with his hard running.

 

[MadMarcus]

I wasn't a fan of the Uate signing but I must say he's loooking good

 

[eaglebuzz]

Far out Beau Scott keeps raking at the ball in the tackle and keeps getting away with it. That's three times now.

 

[HK_Eagle]

C'mon Manly, hold onto the farking ball. I know Scott helped it out, but it was poorly secured in the first place. Discipline issues hurting us again. We really need to address this before we slide back into last year's pattern.

 

[MadMarcus]

Ref is killing us

 

[HK_Eagle]

Now Jorge has taken a high ball and getting a bit more involved. Good stuff.

 

[damiennp90]

What is Tommy Doing. You must know where it's kicked from. Damn.

 

[simon64]

We are the better side and by some margin too.

 

[HK_Eagle]

That was a ridiculous bit of luck to the Eels, but really showed a lack of urgency getting to that ball before it rolled out for a 40/20.

 

[HappilyManly]

Turbo will learn to kill a rolling ball

 

[Pablo]

Blake needs to learn that you actually get penalised for play the ball infringements when you don't play for Melbourne

 

[eaglebuzz]

This is cruel. Aside from the dropped balls we are the far better side. Every point the Eels have scored so far has been luck on the back of low percentage plays...

 

[Mark from Brisbane]

The Eels have stepped up a cog, great 40/20, hard to hold out after all that defence and another penalty.

 

[Ryan]

Tom, you need more footy IQ mate. Don't ****ing let ball go into touch like that.

 

[HK_Eagle]

I farking hate this. Eels do not deserve to be in this game with us let alone ahead. Everything is bouncing their way from dodgy calls on raked balls to that absolute arse 40/20 and offload to score. Where is the reward for good hard footy... Dam you footy gods.

 

[andyvb]

This is f@#ked rub of the green go the way of parra as usual. Refs killing us with **** penalaties

 

[HoldenV8]

So far we've been the better side, but they are having all the luck.
