Game Day: Manly v Warriors [Round 25, 2017]

[pjayz]

Yeah, it was a funny game of contrasts for him. Pretty much invisible for the first 60 mins. Then suddenly injected himself, albeit, full of hospital passes, getting caught with the ball and just poor options. Then finally those few late involvements of freakish ability to help drag the team over the line... Hopefully, those freakish moments set the pace for weeks to come and the team as a whole.

What I take out of it is a team that hasn't looked passionate or confident in the last six weeks and then in that last ten they finally fired up. The look on Cherry when he kicked the first to tie it up showed a heap of passion, then when he did it again to win the game - the passion on the faces of the players was something we have been missing.

I think we can go on to beat Penrith next week and at least have a serious shot of winning week one of the finals.

 

[NLSeaEagle]

Yes he was. I said myself that he was way off today and pretty much from that point on he woke up and played a blinder. I take full credit.

What you doing next year...............we're in the market for a coach!

It's true, they actually looked like they really wanted it in that last 10..................it hasn't looked that way recently.

 

[The Who]

That match reinforced that hoodoos do exist in sport.
We have hoodoos over the Worriers and Cronulla. Unfortunately, we have hoodoos against us when playing Illawarra at Win Stadium and the Tigers at Leichhardt.

Maybe I'll charge a fortune as a consultant

He looks like a man who has found God!

 

[Michael Clare]

Kelly's 2nd half was quality too.
Let's hope that is a catalyst for him too.

Young Kelly played really well today - he's got class and showed it today.

Vital one on one tackle on Fishiiati in the second half.

But I wish Manly would feed the beasts on the RHS more - Walks and Uate may as well not be there in attack 😎

Agreed. Uate came over to the left wing just to get a run in that second half.

Not sure if anyone has highlighted how today's win helps our Points Differential
Without getting too technical, it has increased by 1 point.

Tom never seems to get into the song, not like Jake and Cherry...they really sing it.

Green was passionate and some others seem to have picked up the words.

Slowly but surely they're learning it...

 

[Captain Moondog]

I had my grandson and his old man come around to see me. The grandson is half Maori and a Warriors supporter, his dad is full Maori and a Manly supporter. At half time the young bloke was saying don't worry Gramps it's only football lol.

Brilliant improvement on the average -30 odd of past weeks.

It's not hard to get a disagree is it

I'm just going to assume @Nordburg meant to hit the like or the agree button when he gave me the dislike. either that or I'll ban him for personal attacks! lolololol (kidding about that last one.)
