Game Day: Manly v Wests Tigers [Round 2, 2016]

[Loobs]

That game changed as soon as BJ and Parcell came on.

Changed in an instant!!

You reading this Trent?????

I think he's busy

 

[The Eagle Has Landed]

Hope Jamie's poor kicking for goal doesn't come back and haunt us.
Pretty sure Walkers a handy goal kicker.

 

[FlyingHigh]

Lawrence and Parcell have been incredible. Please lift boys.

 

[Loobs]

Save the supposed $$ for Tamou and spend it on BJ and Starlo. They look a bit more settled but defence is a big worry with the Tigers attack

Provided his health stays ok BJ is worth it because he's a late bloomer who has also missed a lot of footy. Need to see him do this for a few games though but great return.

 

[swoop]

Our forwards were owned until BJ and Parcell came on. I said earlier that the tigers are playing a passing type game and Manly looked ordinary. Our Forwards are hanging back, no line speed.

 

[MANLY4LIFE]

Who keeps giving you BJs? Lucky you .....

It is national bj and steak day you know

 

[Killer03]

Parcell has the forwards running onto the ball and is asking more questions. Korisou better head home now and dust of his pictures of Barrett so he can keep his spot next week.

Yup. In that first 20 the Tigers forwards were just running hard and fast. Ever since Parcell has come on (and Lawrence) that seems to be happening for us.

 

[Nightbot]

Api should never start another game (over) Parcell is a much better footballer and is fit he can do 80 minutes easy.

 

[EagleFlys]

On a ****ing serious note (lol I'm not drunk yet but will be in 30-40 mins) can we ask the 10mil man to practice kicking goals? FFS Jamie is a 70% kicker at best and at worst out wide is 30-40%.

DCE please practice kicking for Penns money

 

[Normie]

BJ is a machine!

 

[The Eagle Has Landed]

That try to Walker will give him some confidence. Our wingers are terrible Tafua can't defend or catch and Williame is ordinary to say the least.

Same as last week when parcel came on, we looked much improved. EVERYTHING comes from the hooker. Korisou just cant deliver good ball, parcel is quick, great passer, good footy brain. He has to play more minutes

 

[EaglesDontTweet]

Parcell would chase a loose ball up a drain pipe. He's so enthusiastic.

Matai inside tafua is too slow and not moving up.

 

[Eelectric]

I wonder if @Eelectric will have some fun as we are leading the penalty count about 100-1.

@niccipops , what kind of a gentleman would I be to scoff <grinning>.

PS: Don't know why you bother trying to make Walker re-learn how to kick & pass. Just pass the ball to him in some space & let him score some points. E.g. 36 minute. Seeeesh.

Update: Deleted Comment re Tigers being one of the favourites for the spoon.

 

[Loobs]

Walkers acceleration though... Hopefully we're seeing that in the centres next year with a new established 6.

 

[manlyfan76]

Walker should take over conversion attempts. Killer is to inconsistent

I think that is a real possibility.
Love killer but two points is two points.

 

[eggson]

Teams to target Walker/Matai/Taufua the rest of the year, you heard it here first!

Buhrer or Brown can slot in to give Parcell a rest if need be.Korisau is at his 3rd club in 3 yrs,says a lot

Times two is four points
