Manly Wolverines vs Broncos [Round 21 2014]

[Brookie Brawler]

It was like a pseudo-State of Origin...perhaps not in actual quality though.

:idea:

More like a pseudo City Country game - with the right colours and the extended periods of shyte.

Go City!

someone needs to show the referees the difference between a knock on and a knock back. That kickoff knock back from Foz was a criminal decision.

Had to wait to almost midnight to finish watching it and to know the result, yes I have to agree on the jerseys , maybe a great marketing tool but let's get back to maroon and white .

The knock on came at his second attempt to pick up the ball as it came of the post.

How kickass Wolverine did Snake look?! ...Awesome. Great idea & design but can't like the colours of those jerseys.. Great important win @ Brookie regardless! Go Manly!

Liked the gret efforts from Hiku, Buhrer, Kingy, JSL, T-Red & Starling last night.

Lovin' it!

That's what the referee said but the video says otherwise.

After a long week at work it was all I could do to keep my eyes open also allowing for the time difference as well.

Was 4 a piece when I had my last look not long after start of the second half so was pleased when I checked my Twitter feed the luds had won. A win is always pleasing but considering the short turn arounds it was a game that could have easily been lost.

Well have a look at the video again.

Make sure to see the Nine replay view of Snake's try. Filmed from behind the goal posts at ground level it is spectacular. Watching Foran & Snake was great. All the stands & fans behind it going off.

It's just after the 3 minutes mark in the highlights on http://www.nrl.com/defensive-masterclass-secures-manly-win/tabid/10874/newsid/80699/default.aspx

A workmate who's a broncos fan said to me today, "Your Manly team played really well on Friday. Our broncos weren't very good."
I replied, "I thought you guys did well, we could have put 50 on you so you had a good game."
When she walked away I realised what I'd said and had a little laugh to myself about telling her the broncs did well because Manly didn't beat them by 50.
Go Manly!

Apparently Jesse was charged for a Crusher Tackle :huh:

But Gillett knocking Matai senseless was not considered as an event


Manly’s Jesse Sene-Lefao (grade 1 crusher tackle), Parramatta’s Junior Paulo (grade 1 dangerous contact) and Canberra’s Josh Papalii (grade 1 dangerous contact) will all be free to play in their respective round 22 matches should they take early pleas.
Roosters enforcer Jared Waerea Hargreaves was hit with a grade 1 careless high tackle for a shot on Dragons prop Mike Cooper.

The Manly loading comes into play yet again.
