Game Day: Manly v Eels [Round 18, 2019]

[globaleagle]

no way that was forward

checcin guessing for his boys

again the passer gets stopped, refs think it is forward

amateur hour

 

[Cliffymagic]

Crap 2nd half.

 

[The Royal Soup]

Wow what a **** 2nd half

Hope des rips them

 

[Pittwater Legend]

Dominant victory. Smoked Eel is on the menu tonight

 

[globaleagle]

i guess the refs had manly 1-12 today!

 

[globaleagle]

the thing that annoys me about aussie tv is straight after the game fox has gone to the matty johns show

no after match interviews

no nothing

they need to keep the coverage going on another channel

you never get such shoddy b/s here

it's disrespectful to the people who pay for your stupid coverage!!

 

[mickqld]

Glad to get the win and it was a super effort for 60 min, absolutely blew them away ,but we were 24-30 pts better than them. Des wont be happy with the end.

 

[Captain Moondog]

Thanks Manly , **** you refs, **** you commentators, **** you Greenberg.

 

[globaleagle]

YAY MANLY!!!

Parker still can’t catch or run without falling over
Garrick still runs sideways too much and misses easy conversions
Tagus still has no urgency and is so slow at everything.
Cherry still plays way to loose
croker is not a hooker
Thompson and siro still play too tight and run at the markers way to much

There is a lot that needs to be better. That 2nd half pissed me off no end, it should have been 50-12. We will be cannon fodder if we don’t address the fundamentals.

This was not a good win, but I’ll take it and move on, but there should be no resting on laurels after that 2nd half.

 

[Terry Zarsoff]

I hope Gutherson’s spirit was crushed at the end.

You had the chance to return old son. Now your name is just dirt.

 

[HappilyManly]

We were Ceccined big time

Great composure by Manly to keep on the job after all the Ref fiasco

Smoked them in the first half and scored 2 tries all in the second

Garrick was very good today. sure our 2nd half wasnt the best but we can learn from it. Parker was bad in that last 15 but he was pretty solid most of the night. Storm will be a good test especially since they rested 4 of there players.

 

[Ron E. Gibbs]

Second half fade at least gives Dessie plenty to work on going into the game against Melbourne. Parramatta should have never got within 12 points and we shouldn't have fallen into bad habits once we figured we had it won. Maybe playing the Storm will make them switch on for a full 80 minutes.

 

[globaleagle]

did siro get hurt?

 

[Terry Zarsoff]

I hope Gutherson’s spirit was crushed at the end.

To take that theme further:

On current trends, he is forever destined to walk the streets of Manly-Warringah without belonging. The latest iteration of ‘Ivan Cleary’s Syndrome.’

 

[mickqld]

It's funny how we won. We're in clear 5th. Yet just feel uncomfortable about it. I suppose it's better than 15th at this time last year. I trust Des has it all under control. Did we clock off because the players minds went on to next week ?

 

[joeboy]

Cue fanboys who throw dummy spit ratings at anyone who dare constructively criticise our team. If you can’t see the points I’m making, well you are watching footy wrong

 

[globaleagle]

Impartial refereeing is a myth in the NRL, can't wait till technology renders these ****sticks obsolete.

it's already being trialled in baseball
