Game Day: Manly V Storm [Round 5, 2025]

[Ron E. Gibbs]

Really poor 10 minutes there when they scored the 3 tries but otherwise we’ve looked pretty good.

Koula looks unreal, keep feeding him the ball and things will happen 100%

Momentum shifted when DCE forced it down the short side and put all the pressure on Brooks, we will be a better team once he is gone

Agree. Yes, that 10-minute stretch was disastrous and may prove decisive, but we've reacted really well and are still in the game. At times Melbourne have looked as ragged as we did. We can score tries in bunches, too, so fingers crossed for a better second half.

 

[The Royal Soup]

first score in second half wins

 

[HoldenV8]

Think about this

In years gone by we’d capitulate and it would be 36-2.

We didn’t , we’re fighting back.

Loads didn’t go our way, but we haven’t spit the dummy out .

That’s a real positive sign

Good point. This team is actually showing some fight.

 

[andyvb]

Brooks, Burbo and Koula look great

 

[LeonardCohen]

Has anyone else noticed the referees have stopped the roll ball crack down? I’m seeing heaps of poor efforts with the foot at the ruck.

 

[The Royal Soup]

WTF was that flick back 30 meters DCE!!!!

 

[EOL now nesting on the GC]

Andddddd? Do you fancy answering the question?

 

[Ashton Davis]

Need Daly to be better

 

[MANLY4LIFE]

I love how the 6 agains suddenly dissapear every 2nd half of a game

 

[Ashton Davis]

shut up Voss

 

[Jerry1]

That’s bull****

 

[HoldenV8]

Atkins pulled that one out of his ar$e.....

 

[Ashton Davis]

Where can we find another Bullemor

 

[The Royal Soup]

we are soft and pathetic

 

[Ashton Davis]

Try to Grant Atkins

 

[danny-boy]

Well **** there was absolutely no need for a penalty on Ben. Absolutely none.

 

[The Royal Soup]

we cannot defend the top 4 teams at all

we are soft and a joke when it comes to D

 

[MANLY4LIFE]

And that is the difference from being a top 4 team to an average team the drizzle can sustain constant pressure go down opponents half and score instant points first set !!!

We NEVER can, still a mentally weak team because seidud is a weak coach

 

[mickqld]

Fu*king useless cu*t catkins manages to fu*k us over with pedantic bullsht calls.

 

[The Royal Soup]

Game and season over

we will fall into the 8 and be bundled out once again

another wasted year where we are no where near a top 4 side
