Post-Game Discussion Manly v Warriors [Round 13, 2022]

[BOZO]

Strong disagree from me - Foran on the right edge just highlighted that DCE cannot pass the ball to the right player at the right time. - We absolutely do not need a hooker who cannot do that, it would cramp our attack up on both sides.

Strong Disagree from me....

because you dont need a plan B if you have a DCE !

DCE has about 50 highlight reels
here are just a few for you @QueefRichards

You know this is crap because we haven't won in the last 10 years with DCE at halfback. There needs to be a plan B.

Judging a player based on highlights is a mugs game

Cameron Smith is the greatest playmaker the game has seen and he's got less highlight reels than Jason Saab.

Playmaking is about making the right decision at the right time (like Foran making Haumole run onto the ball at speed) and that can look pretty unspectacular and wont make it on some YouTube highlight reel but it wins matches

DCE can make the magic happen but he also stifles plays pretty much every match because of his subpar decisionmaking. It isn't good enough for a $1M+ playmaker

I think DCE would make a great hooker. He would give crisper passes than Croker. He loves running so scooting from dummy half would suit him. Gives us another option to kick from dummy half. He can tackle well also. As long as he doesn't have decisions which he won't in the middle. His creativity will add to the side whilst at the same time not affecting our structure in the halves. Croker to utility instead of Lawton

Play foran and Shuster in the halves and next season blood Humphries.

I just rewatched the entire match. IMO, criticism of Schuster's game is unfounded. In the first half he threw one poor pass which went to ground (Jake & Croker also each had one misdirected pass which went to ground). In the second half, he seemed a bit switched off when the ball was kicked for the Murchie no try. Otherwise, his major error was the flick pass round the back near our goal line which went to ground and preceded a Warriors try. It appears to me he loses focus when tired.

I think some people have unrealistic expectations of players who are returning from injury. It takes a while to find rhythym & form. For example, Turbo only started showing his true form in the Eels game (IMO). I suggest that those who are critical of Schuster give him more time to find fitness & form before making assessments. By the way, that lazy flick pass behind his back was the only no look pass that went to ground. We'll know he is in form when there is less lateral passing and there is more digging into the line. Except for one occasion, his short kicking game was very accurate.

We would be a seriously improved and well balanced team if this were to ever actually happen. DCE and his management will never accept this however

Spare me the mugs game feathered friend

Dont even go there

Dce has nothing to prove and in his illustrious and decorated career he keeps on bouncing back to his best and keeps proving the doubter wrong

Premiership winner
Grand final best player Clive churchill medal
Captain of Manly
Captain of QLD
Captain of Australia

The moral of the story .....
No one gets big money for being a Mug

Money, money, money
Must be funny
In DCE's world
Money, money, money
Always sunny
In DCE's world
All the things I could do
If I had a little money
In DCE's world
