Game Day: Manly v Roosters [Round 19, 2018]

[Cioran]

The Roosters are pretty to watch. They have a game plan and execute it. We should try that. This is just getting sad.

 

[Eagles2nv]

Well at least Frank leaves today knowing he got off the Nudie.

 

[Mark from Brisbane]

Anyone for a heavily used eternal rookie coach?.

I hope the Rooster reach 70, we need a shake up, and badly.

NYEagle

Come on mate don’t hope for that , records last forever you know!!

Yeah, we need an absolute ass ****ing to make it so that no one can argue about sacking them,.

 

[cherry_poppins]

Is there a worse player than Suli?

 

[ManWar]

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

 

[Mark from Brisbane]

34-6 at half time , well we did get to 40 after all!!

 

[mave]

It's called buying in, Mark.
Getting on the bus ,....
Anything you want to call it.

Are you seeing that effort from this squad for Barrett ?

 

[Wombat64]

Come on mate don’t hope for that , records last forever you know!!

Nah, we deserve the bad medicine that comes from this. This is a team of imposters coached by an imposter.

 

[Captain Moondog]

I can't speak.

 

[Nordburg]

Not sure what’s worse,the team’s performance or Lockyer’s attempt at “hair”

 

[PONTIAN SEA EAGLE]

Seriously how’s there so many supporters still left at the ground.I would have left by now.

 

[Kevinward777]

Parker=First game was brave in defence against the warriors on the wing against Vatuvai.,, and the bow legged, unatbletic, C grader has been living off the fumes of that performance ever since. Absolute dud.

Barrett might be a **** coach but have a look at the side, suli, matt wright, parker, tom wright, fainu, winterstein, hodgo wow. Park footballers. How are we in cap trouble. Management over the past 4 years have killed this club

What I’m seeing is a young team getting blown off the park by a team of superstars.

I’m no Barrett lover BUT I just can’t be convinced that every issue is 110% related to the coach!!

Parker/Suli/Wright/Wright wouldn’t make FG anywhere else, but that’s what the coach has to work with.

Correct , may not have the best coach BUT FMD the coach doesn’t have the best players either!!

 

[The '47ers]

Come on mate don’t hope for that , records last forever you know!!

Exactly, a reminder to never let this set up happen again!

I agree somewhat but when you look at the Tigers they are an even more mediocre team on paper but their coach gets them up for the game, they're disciplined and well drilled.

Half time report:

 

[brad]

What im seeing is a paddock without the cattle .

 

[HK_Eagle]

Our management of the ruck is our biggest problem. Our play the balls are very slow, even when players don't get turtled and remain on their fronts. In comparison, we have little to no control in our tackles and Roosters are up and off before our markers can even get close to setting.... The reason this is a problem is that our forward are not even get their usually decent platform with meters and momentum as they are running into set lines, line speed and gang tackles. The score is the result of this one critical area... ruck management. All the other garbage play is merely a down the line effect of this.

Wooden spoons even more so. We need a shake-up, and this week.
