Game Day: Manly v Warriors [Round 19, 2016]

[Dan]

Ferris is the only one going forward and sticking in tackles

 

[Chip and Chase]

We are a socks down team these days aren't we. I know it's wet, but we have about half the side who chose to sport the low look.

 

[Mark from Brisbane]

Can't have that penalty count getting too lopsided can we, except when the refs have the word from the NRL that NSW need to get a win to keep the interest going in SOO.

So so predictable these days.

 

[NewwyEagle]

We're still **** in attack and defense. But at least we're showing some energy. Hopefully one week I'll get to stop complaining about how awful we are in opposition 20.

 

[HappilyManly]

For a Team of subs, Manly are looking great 14-12 HT

 

[Mark from Brisbane]

We must have a lot of local Warriors fans there as there's so much booing when we do anything, I thought this was supposed to be a " home" game??

5 straight penalities to warriors helped them

 

[bob dylan]

Excellent 1st half.

Not much to complain about there.

I score it 8/10.

Agreed. Having Brown there in the centres killed a bit of our momentum. Api hasn't done much so far. He's stuffed up a few movements and has at times hit the wrong player on the last tackle.

 

[manlyfan76]

Well we are right in this.
We need tapow and Lussick to lead us to victory in the wet.
Wet game = forwards go forward

Wet game would be Brown's saving grace at centre.

That's a 9.5 coming from you bob.

 

[Killer03]

I thought the same, we are looking good. Tommy looking super dangerous and just very comfortable, as evidenced by that lovely little dink into the in goal.

Parker has seemed safe so far, and our completions are 100 percent. In that weather that's unbelievable.

 

[Jerry1]

I can't see snake getting his spot back from Tom.

 

[Simonmyers11]

To be honest hard conditions to play attacking footy. Just need a mistake free second half. No gifting penalties. Good kicking game and play down there end. Tom could be the guy who can get us points. Warriors have mistakes. Just need to play smart footy and defend well

 

[susan]

I'd love to see Parcell out there in these conditions against those Warrior forwards close to the line ...And passing without picking it up and taking an eternity like Korisau. Can't believe how a simple thing like that can't be improved...so frustrating.Cant fault his defence tonight though.Ripping in.

Good solid effort from the boys with a makeshift backline. Kicking game has been great. As usual points flow with penalties to either side so need to be disciplined.

 

[Killer03]

I love the combo with Jake and Tommy also, they have a beautiful little inside play which is very dangerous.

Killers kicking had been good too.

Kiwis following the mining boom?

 

[bob dylan]

if Johnson shines we will lose.

If we can keep a lid on him we will win this.

 

[HappilyManly]

Well we are right in this.

Wet game = forwards go forward

Along with the two big arsed forwards - Vave and Starlo.

100% completion rate in the wet and windy conditions - keep it up Manly
