Manly v Raiders Round 8 (Pre-Game Day Discussion)

[Holmsey]

Do we have any other second rowers to take Sironens place TBH the guy has been poor. Frankenstein has been great in my opinion maybe a little turnstile at times but he's been pretty good in attack.

 

[Holmsey]

I watched the reserves live on Saturday and was shocked at how bad Lane was.
All the Blacktown Player Families assured me that he is as inept each week.

But he sure stands out - lanky is an understatement 🙂

Sirro leads the offloads at Manly with 16 just over Kapow with 15
Third in the NRL with Kapow with in the overall NRL stats

Kapow has been good hasn't he. I didn't realise how good he was going till I saw his stats, really strong after contact too.

500m in 7 games. Not enough. We need forwards who are going to get us over the advantage line. He can't

Frank has been improving each week.
The lines he runs, with his huge frame are really great to watch.
That try on Saturday shows what he is capable of.

I like Sirro, he reminds me of his Dad in the way he moves. Another WIP

I'm worried about his ribs. Seems a quick fix and I hope that he is not being rushed back from injury.😵

I can feel the Papalii hits aimed at Kapow already 😱

 

[Loobs]

I reckon we counter the Raiders pack size with a bench of Brown, Hastings AND Cullen

 

[Fluffy]

Barrett is clueless. Picking 2 utilities when we're playing thar monster Raiders pack. Green Brown Sironen should be out judging on performance.
Cullen to 6
Hastings to 9.
Lane to 12.
Api on bench with AFB Lussick Perrett.
Why has Perrett been dropped. He was getting good go forward last week.

Lane in and Perrett dropped for being injured had be an ironstine moment

surely you cannot be serious

 

[Fluffy]

4th time this year someone has used the "monster pack" line and had a whinge.

Might finally get one right for the first time but the cows, dogs and rorters monster packs didn't worry us.

ok but wont it disappear?

 

[winnyason]

lewis brown keeps his spot...

 

[The Who]

Incredibly frustrating about Poo. He's a proven failure, and his continual selection does no favours to Twenty.
Also noted is that Mr Plod has not been selected in the top 17 . . nor for the Manly Workers. I guess his contract stipulates he can never play Reggies.

 

[Harvies elbow]

Is it Friday yet ??

Maybe we can move Sirro to hooker, I'd even prefer your Mum in the 9 to API to be honest.

Don't know where that came from tbh

[Wombat64]

Brown?

 

[Ralphie]

Brown?

Better but not great

[mickqld]

Oh well. Seems supporters are happy enough to watch 30+ point leaking defences and 2nd rowers who can't break out of a trott.
