Game Day: Manly v Warriors [Round 9, 2021]

[Ben]

Keppie needs to sort out his on line defence. He was the cause of the first two trys they scored.

[Cameron]

i’d like to see young josh put that no look pass on the shelf for a bit. that was a massive game changer on the first tackle

 

[EagleFromMay1967]

Our halves are MIA. Haven’t even heard forans name called

Be nice if we had more than a couple of players step up regularly, week to week.

Need some leadership and some want in the second half.

If u say Foran carrying injuries, should not be playing, or at least playing less than 50 mins, you'll be shot down, and told you are stupid.

 

[Jerry1]

Flat as a possum in the middle lane of the M2

 

[Mark from Brisbane]

Just garbage. Nothing plays from DCE and Foz the ghost. Nikorima killing our rubbish overpaid halves. Where is the leadership. Why wouldn't you take 2 pts to go to the lead. Then the tap was a joke and neither half got involved at all. We are gone. Warriors by plenty.

Forwards average mate , no forwards , no room for the halves.

 

[Ron E. Gibbs]

Some very weak defending and dumb mistakes leading to easy Warriors tries. Doesn't help that the ref seems intent on ignoring forward passes unless we throw them. And why, oh why, didn't we take the two points from in front when we had the chance? We would have gone ahead, got a breather and a chance to reset and got the ball back. Warriors had no hesitation when they had the same opportunity a minute later, and now they're eight points ahead.

 

[joeboy]

I don't think a 40/20 leading to a try is MIA. And it would help if we didn't make stupid mistakes like no-look passes on the first tackle off a scrum

Halfback, captain and marque player needs more than one good thing every half.

Kind of our main problem really

 

[Waz13]

How many blatant foward passes is this dickhead going to let go

It’s a f$&@en joke. I cannot believe it.

Warriors: 1 - Tackle Number: 2 (9:20).
Manly: 0 - Tackle Number: N/A.

referee Dirk Diggler has been giving the warriors a lot a lattiude on the ruck area

 

[Ranga]

We are running to the southern end in the second half and historically we score more points when running to that end.

Yep, I am scraping the bottom of the barrel for positives after that first half...

Strange decision I thought

 

[Highflier]

Defense is weak , we need to increase line speed and stop errors
I still think Croker gets gassed at 30 mins , we need to crowd Kodi and CTH

 

[mickqld]

63% completions once again just handing the game over again. This is pathetic. Total lack of direction and leadership. Take some F***ING CONTROL CAPT $$$.

 

[davohan123]

Mothers day, turbo 100th not winning at home for over 295 days and yet we are producing this s$$t sorry it's no the manly team I followed.

 

[Remy]

One thing we prided when we started our season revival is our defence. Held warriors a month ago to only 12 points, kept titans scoreless, let in one lucky try for the tigers. Now look at us, our defence has no intensity except some mongrel from keppie. And then our goal line defence, just softttttttttttt.

 

[Cliffymagic]

Sucks we were good against the Panthers and then turn this crap on.

 

[Waz13]

Other than Cherry's 40/20, Tom's tries and a couple of hits by Keppie ... that was a very poor first half from Manly.

Warriors lead us by 8 and TBH they haven't played well either. We've just been crap for the most part again.

Yep both poor really. Warriors have got away with about 4 forward passes tho

 

[Snake]

It’s everything to do with no Taupau and Aloiai at the moment. Warriors punching through the middle of the ruck with ease.
Yes it helps when we complete sets but a lot of the forced passes and drop ball are from fatigue and pressure of not winning the battle in the middle.

 

[The Royal Soup]

Whoever scores first in the 2nd half wins
