Game Day: Manly v Roosters [Round 4, 2016]

[HappilyManly]

Jorge's metres out of trouble and as an extra forward show his worth.
Obviously defence is another story.

Two knock on really got the Rorters back in the game.
His running is fine but his confidence is still missing for some strange reason.

Jorge has so much skill and strength, someone needs to concuss him in the tunnel on the way out and it will stop him thinking - Rambo Ronny Gibbs style 😛

 

[ManlyMit]

What's the latest on DCE? And buhrer broken hand poor bloke how long is he looking at?

 

[voicefromthehill]

Score, Possession and Penalties are all that matter.

Manly need to get their discipline hammered into them ASAP

Well I was playing - but if that was all that mattered they would not measure all these other stats. The other stats are predictive to outcome in most occasions (insert appropriate emoji here so you understand my point)

 

[HappilyManly]

Can anyone shed some light on the speed of the game? Anytime I listen to the radio(abc) they said it was a fast game

Speed - what speed. 13 penalties and loads of dropped ball - it was a disjointed game.

 

[EaglesDontTweet]

I missed the first half. What happened to buhrer

broken thumb

 

[joeboy]

That was one of the worst wins I've ever seen. Like every week this year, individual brilliance gets us through, not much in the way f cohesion.

Lewis brown is still a terrible footballer. Did some good things, but his 2 metre dummy half runs and arm grabbing defence is going to cost more than 3 good things every few games.

Defence was good, but the roosters attack was terrible. Jorge fast becoming a liability and the edge defence is still pretty soft.

Happy to get the two. Glad we got some fresh troops for next week.. Feel very sorry for buhrer, and hopefully cherry is back. While I'm on that. The team should be ashamed that our hslfback has to take at least 5 hit ups from our end.

Hmmmmm it actually looked slow to me, like they were on a really wet surface or something I dunno..

Haha thanks for that. All I heard was it was a fast game and both teams were out in the feet

Don't care about anything but the score TBH 😀

And our position on the Ladder - we are 10th

Maybe Andrew Moore and Matt Elliot were deluded. Thanks for the info

 

[highlandeagle]

Sack barrett ****en.
can't beat these imbos.

Fu@# off you imbecile

 

[HoldenV8]

Interesting fact: Tonight is the third game in a row that we've scored 22 points.....

It honestly didn't have that "quick game" feel to it so yeah, they're wrong 😉

They think its a high ankle strain - so may not be an issue.
Then again, he only has till Thursday night to get it ready

 

[The Insomniac]

Tafua the villan and the hero!!

I'm sorry to day this but he's just not up to 1st grade standard. Why are we so short on wing options.

 

[HoldenV8]

So who plays halfback with DCE expected to be out for about a month?

 

[Terry Zarsoff]

Tafua can score a try. However he graduated with honours from the Scott Donald Post-graduate School for Defensive Inadequacy.

How long can the experiment continue? It's now in it's fifth season and he hasn't learnt much at all.

Ironically he grabbed the ball right at the end to end a Goosters attacking run.

Has there ever been an uglier halfback with a rude head than young Hsstings? At least since Tommy Ridiculous finished up?

Thanks for the feedback

Who is the half in NSW Cup?
