Game Day: Manly v Rorters [Round 2, 2019]

[Order66]

Go to the DCE thread, iv been saying for 2 1/2 years that he’s garbage. Has 4 good games a year, at most..

I called for him to be dropped last year..maybe des needs to drop him hes hopeless

To quite the fox commentary "the roosters have an embarrassment of riches in reserve to choose from. "
They are the premiers and we were 15th.

They have a bench with million dollar players and ours are on minimum wage.

 

[Brissie Kid]

The weekend Greiner won we beat the Eels 64-0.

Now Gladys is gonna win easily. Roosters get their new stadium for sure now. Eels got their new stadium. Everyone else is playing out of big stadiums.

 

[Wombat64]

Will the roosters put the cue in the rack?

 

[Deleted member 26876]

I Think we need to move Waddel (who’s played brilliantly) to lock, Jake to prop, Taupau to second-row. Taupau has been found out by opposition at prop nowadays, needs a shakeup

Will chechin?

 

[pjayz]

Two good things - Sironen has looked dangerous in attack and Waddell looks like a goer.

That’s about it.

 

[mickqld]

Robinson could've rested the entire squad. We wouldn't beat half the nsw cup teams.

That’s about it.

And he drops it - thanks Siro...

 

[Captain Moondog]

So, head high tackles are legal now?

 

[Fluffy]

When Barrett scraped us into the finals his backline was mostly as follows
Turbo
Uate
Walker
Kelly
Taufua
Green
DCE
Compare that to what’s out there tonight.

we didn't sack Barrett for making the 8

 

[mickqld]

JWH high shot cleared by refs. Didn't actually smash his jaw or cheekbone so play on.

Yeah,I have been thinking about Taupau to second row,many would disagree but Sam Burgess is killing it at the bunnies,he is roving left and right and backing up the middle.Might be a good option,he has the athleticism and ball skills,Waddell and Jake can tighten up the middle.Funa needs a shot at the wing spot too.

 

[bob dylan]

I actually like our effort at the moment.

 

[Captain Moondog]

FMD, I should have realised, it depends what team you play for.

 

[XV-1]

We certainly miss AFB.

 

[Loobs]

Looks like Suli’s ankle caved under the pressure.

 

[mickqld]

JWH high shot cleared by refs. Didn't actually smash his jaw or cheekbone so play on.

Oh I see it's only penalise Manly for high shots. Rorters are ok to do anything. New rule again.

 

[Spartan Eagle]

Suli gone. We just can't take a break.

 

[HoldenV8]

Does anyone else get the feeling that even if he is only 90% fit, Tom will definitely be back in the side next week? We have zero strike power in the backline right now.

And I see that high tackles are apparently only called if its against Manly.
