Manly v Rabbids [Round Finals Week 1 2014]

[HoldenV8]

Where the f**k was this effort in the first 60? I know the Vermin have virtually stopped but still.....

Who do we prefer next week? Scum or Scumdogs?

 

[Eagles2nv]

How is that we go 40 nil down amd then put on 24 points.

I get souffs swithced off but at least we restored credibility.

 

[The Eagle Has Landed]

Won the second half. Pretty happy about that after being flogged.

 

[Jerry1]

why should they be playing souths song at our home game.

Hard to hook a winger when you only have forwards on the bench. You used to be able to use any reserve grade player back in the day.

Blair is on the bench. A winger

I stand corrected, Pepi.
We did play much better once Blair came on. Not sure whether that was us or Souths taking their foot off the pedal though.

Souffs did the same last week. They were gone and put on some cheap points at the end.

Let's hope we have played ourselves into some form like they did.

To be honest, I thought we looked better than we have for weeks. South's were just better tonight.

 

[HoldenV8]

At least they restored some pride at the end, even if one try was gifted.

The first 60 minutes of this game, for mine, even outdid how bad we played in the 2012 prelim final against the Scum.

Souffs may have stopped in the last 20, but we showed that we are still capable.

thats what the commentators will say TE

That try wasn't arsey @eggson because Hayne took sympathy on us I think. He was right in line with it, it went about 2m forward and he called it good.

Calling fwd passes is not Shane's strong point.

 

[AndyVXI]

Kidding to take anything outta that second half. Lucky to get one try, pass metres forward. Souths switched off. Can't rely on that.

 

[HoldenV8]

I bow to your wisdom on that one @Kevinward777 LOL

Blown away in that game. No answer to the bunnies tonight. Quite happy with the comeback to put some points on the board and save a bit of face. I'm not going to join in any team, coach and club bashing. I'm sure that there'll be plenty of that on here so I'm out. Matai can hold his head very high. He played out of his skin.

souths knew they had the game won , all they wanted was hot showers after 60 mins

 

[HappilyManly]

Well if that last 20 didn't focus Manly, nothing will.

Carn Dogs eliminate the Big 3 :idea:

Its passed bashing individual players. The reserves who came in did ok.
The slump lies squarely with the coach. A couple of games yes you can blame the players. This has gone past that.

 

[globaleagle]

On a positive note....I saw all of Manly's points and only 12 of the souffs.


What happened to Hodges?


edit: what happened to Manly?

 

[lsz]

@jethro

Surley this calls for a manly in crisis / players have no passion / Jorge needs to be dropped / tooves has no idea mega thread?

 

[HappilyManly]

Hodges ricoched his head off GIs hip in the first half. He stayed on but at half time he was taken to hospital in a brace 🙁

Manly will be fine, but our nerves won't be😛

Trust the DT got photos of the thousands queueing for the bus back to civilization :idea:
