Game Day: Manly v Warriors [Round 6, 2016]

[Loobs]

What precedent did they set with T Rex?

 

[EaglesDontTweet]

No

Ta

 

[HappilyManly]

Did he connect?

No - he will get off like DeGois did - I hope - but blatantly stupid.

Just like our goal line defense, backs to the play and RTS plays to the whistle

HT Manly 12-6

 

[Mark from Brisbane]

That was 35 minutes of high intensity pretty good football, and 5 minutes of lazy slack arsed let's have a rest ****ty football.

 

[Ralphie]

We are so bad. We will lose this game.

 

[torana355]

Letting that try in is going to come back to bite us. We dominated that half and we are only up by 6.

 

[damiennp90]

Dead set Stevey. Gave away that try just before half time. He has to be smarter than that. Such an obvious penalty

 

[Loobs]

That was a Des era last 5 minutes...

 

[Shoe1]

Does Bartlett have a spray in him? Perhaps he can throw to bozo for a few minutes?

 

[Eagles2nv]

Solid half. Started strong.

Need to repeat that form in the second half.

Also need to try take advantage of 5th tackle options. Stop running on the 5th as its gotten us a turnover everytime.

 

[HK_Eagle]

It's hilarious... we fix up our slow starts but then drop off where we have been doing well previously. I guess TB will need another training week to explain that while we pick up intensity and performance in one aspect, we at the same time maintain the other aspects that are working lol

 

[Dan]

No - he will get off like DeGois did - I hope - but blatantly stupid.

Just like our goal line defense, backs to the play and RTS plays to the whistle

HT Manly 12-6

He only made contact with his arm not his leg. No penalty.
It's a dangerous precedent to set if you are going to suspend people for "attempted" things.

"Attempted high tackle"
"Attempted offside"

 

[mbe]

On a positive first time this season we are in front at half time. Much better first half.

 

[Mark from Brisbane]

Even though we are on the better end of it at the moment these refs are strangling the game with penalties and the whistle.

As they do to " even it up for TV" ( lol), it's a joke really.

 

[KeithSheldon]

We are so bad. We will lose this game.

Well we will have to lose this game, remember we won't get a win until we play the Roosters because we didn't pick your preferred team list in round 1.

 

[Ralphie]

Letting that try in is going to come back to bite us. We dominated that half and we are only up by 6.

We had 2 dead set lucky tries. Our attack is crap, pedestrian and easily defended. We won't score another point this game.

 

[Killer03]

Some good parts there. Killer was making more runs than I've seen him do for a while. He looks like he could blow this game apart, and if we gets space that will be good for Tommy T.

The opening set was a good indicator. They made about 30m and we were hitting hard.

Well done Josh Starling!

 

[HK_Eagle]

That was 35 minutes of high intensity pretty good football, and 5 minutes of lazy slack arsed let's have a rest ****ty football.

I think it was probably closer to 10-15 mins, but agree wholeheartedly with the gist of it

 

[HappilyManly]

The Warriors are also known to fade in the second half - here's hoping 😀

Wish Parcell would run the ball more, and Walker pass more.

 

[Ralphie]

Our 5th tackle options are utterly diabolical.
