Game Day: Manly v Tigers [Round 24, 2018]

[niccipops]

Would we have been pissed if Wests scored off the same passes?

I did think some of theirs were forward.
I thought both our two forward pass no-trys were trya,

 

[Nice Beaver]

And STILL IS!!!

Kelly is a good, young player.

Its white noise the crap saying otherwise.

Yes but the key is consistency week in week out one of those is a try !

 

[StuBoot]

Yeah, was going to say the same thing. When Tom walked over to him, it was very much a wry smile and shake of the head, as in ‘THIS close’ kinda thing.

Parker and Tafua really don't give us anything from the back. Parker had never broken a tackle.. Ever, Jorge made a few good runs, but also some terrible runs.

Tad harsh on Jorge mate. You realize he was in the top 5 run metres tonight? He did a lot of hard mongrel hitouts from our own quarter.

 

[HappilyManly]

Walker back to Souths?

Walks is not focused on footy.

His operations have cut his speed

New baby has distracted him

Love him to follow Baz as he is just mailing it

 

[The Royal Soup]

**** off now Barrett

He will come good. Back to centre with good early ball. Regain 2017 form he is quality with his head in the game

Spot on... comparing a player who looks to have no balance and very little impact (at least for the side he’s playing for) with a guy who always does a mountain of work bringing the ball out of our own end... well

 

[NYEagle]

And STILL IS!!!

Two bad play the balls at crucial times and you rate him?.
For how long can be a lightweight rookie and get away with it?. It’s been 3 years already.
Waiting waiting,,,,

Still no Journo asks Baz in the presser, why he leaves a fresh player on the bench

I said he made some good runs, but he also made his obligatory and weekly mistake.

Have a look at his runs in the last 10 minutes when we needed to get up the other end. Just sauntered into the line, no leg drive or trying to get a quick play the ball. He has for the most part, lost what he had and his drawbacks are now more obvious as we are not getting the great things he used too give us. He just looks non plussed the whole time and as you said he was pribably content with his game being that he was among the top metre eaters, I just think he could do more, he is a senior player in a very young backline

Much better than Parker though, that guy is a lemon. Still don't think either of them belong in our starting 17 next year

Showed tonight glimpses of what we could be.
Very impressed with dce Jake and Tom tonight all 3 will lead us out of this situation and be the future of this club.

Outside the big money men he's the first player picked

Walks is playing out of position . He has proven that he is no 5/8 . Did you forget season 2016 ?
If Walks Walks we will have slowest back line in the NRL

 

[HappilyManly]

This made the 80 minutes worthwhile

He has been run down, fallen off the pace over this year since his multiple leg operations.

Manly can better use his monies.

Great try . We do have a team that is capable . The new coach will be licking his lips

He is still faster one one leg than our other players in our back line
An off season will do him good . IMO

 

[Highflier]

Elgey has talent and good kicking game. That gets Walker back where he belongs

Need a winger( Anderson ??) class second rower and a no nonsense prop plus a coach with at least some idea and we make the eight. In 45 years watching the game I e never seen incompetent coaching of this magnitude.. The bench stuff must be a piss take surely. And what does he say to these blokes at half time!

At least with the talent we have hope remains. This is a roster with s few additions that is just crying out to improve.

I don’t know what Barrett does at half time but you would swear he gives them a couple of cones and mogodon the way they come out of the sheds
