Game Day: Manly v Raiders [Round 13, 2016]

[skull61]

Why did Barrett leave Lawrence on when he has only got one wing

 

[Pablo]

Funny how when Austin had the balldown their end the ref called held real quick and gave them a penalty but down this end of the field leilua gets an eternity before he passed it an no held call.

 

[JenEagle]

That's very frustrating. I have no idea why we didn't take the 2. No idea at all. Instead of going down 12-8 or potentially being up 8-6 we are down 12-6.

 

[Fluffy]

Manly 1 error and 8 missed tackles
Raiders 3 errors and 14 missed tackles but refs have kept them in there

 

[MadMarcus]

The game is at 6 all but the NRL has sone serious credibility problems. I can already tell from the referring Manly has no chance in this game.

It's no longer a sport. Now it's an "entertainment product" like the wrestling.

 

[The Wheel]

That's forked seriously a soft try 1 min to go. Three blokes are passengers. Not looking forward to 2nd half

 

[mjb136]

If we can even up the possession, currently 57-43, and horsehead has a stroke at halftime we can win this.

 

[Simonmyers11]

Fighting an uphill battle. So many injured and refs killing us. Lawrence one arm , brown can hardly run and now cherry is hobbling .

 

[Ryan]

Only losing by 6 is a big step up for us, especially with how we are getting monstered.

Have to ask, when was the last time ANY of our grades won a game of football?

 

[damiennp90]

Well boys.

Only dropped the ball 1 time that half. Still didn't look electric at all with the ball.

And our Defence in this must win game also wasn't up to scratch.

Really hope it's because some of our boys are injured. Because if it's not then this year is over as this is the best we can dish out.

 

[JenEagle]

Dce looks gone.

 

[eggson]

Just no consistency with the reffing. They need to go into the game with duct tape around their mouths.

 

[Fibro Eagle]

Horse head is blowing all the penalties the other guy has awarded 1
Just proves that 2 ref's are refereeing 2 separate games

 

[Nordburg]

I can't not understand the point of leaving fresh blokes on the bench,let alone 2.Why not rotate a more frequently and then the players that normally sit on bench get a feel for the game

 

[Sheikheagle]

6 weeks for cherry damn

Thanks Doc!

 

[Jerry1]

We have 9 players on the field.

3 injured and 1 not interested.

One being the the 1

 

[MadMarcus]

Only losing by 6 is a big step up for us, especially with how we are getting monstered.

Long way to go Ryan... We could lose by WAY more than that!!! Anyone see what the best odds were for losing margin?

 

[HappilyManly]

Refs aren't making it easy for us, and neither is Lewis brown.

Buher and Vave have been awesome.
Hopefully Lawrence comes good

Looks like a pec injury - can't believe that he was left out there unable tackle, catch or pass with one arm

Meanwhile Starlo is freezing on the bench.

 

[Eagleheart]

I feel sick...........! The officiating is beyond deplorable yet again tonight and reeks of manipulation for a pre determined result. Seriously something needs to be done.

 

[Manlymaniac]

Ref's are killing my love for league.
