Game Day: Manly v Raiders [Round 12, 2018]

Our line speed in defence sucks.

How is it that every other team seems to be able to put pressure on a field goal kicker, including killing most of our attempts, yet we can't seem to get off the line to shut down an attempt? I know we did stop one attempt, but that was out of marker....our line got absolutely nowhere near it.
 
Like I said, 2 tries off very obvious wrong calls in the 1st half, then the last try off the forward pass.

Starting to hate this game.

If this were Melbourne, the league World would be blowing up.

And the commentators made absolutely no mention of it !!
 
That is bullsh1t. We were not. We got slogged by the officials. One try off the player being out into touch another off a blatant forward pass/offside combo and a player in the bin out of the blue

Can't blame the refs for that loss.

Canberra gave us the ball 4 times in Canberra's half in the last 8 minutes. We did nothing to ice the game.

Hmmm DCE did not manage the last 10min and this is the problem with him and why he gets criticised, times like that a leader gets his troops to lift. I still think taking the 2 points with 20 to go reflected our mind set.
 
Look, the refs did suck but the fact is that we had plenty of opportunities to ice that game more than 10 minutes out and we blew it. Then we handed Canberra the keys and let them in the front freaking door.
 
I thought we brought in Hodko to control the game. Where were the repeat sets or kicks into goal. So many wrong options on 5th tackle today.

I know they came close and it’s been a tough 4 weeks away from home but we needed to keep that momentum going.

Raiders were gifted 12 points when we really should of got the ball back. Don't care about anythng nelse that happened, they should not of got the points.
