Marty WTF

[Mark from Brisbane]

What a **** show the last three weeks has been injuries galore and now a suspension.

Tragic isn’t it that we won’t get to see what this great young side could have done if fully fit!!

 

[HappilyManly]

But we'll get to cheer 17 Manly players fighting for another win

The club and Marty have officially taken the early guilty plea and one week suspension.

In our weakened state it couldn’t have come at a worse time.

Pretty accidental as well, and you could see the remorse on his face.

You could imagine how disappointed he would be mate, knowing he is one of our most influential (and fit!) players currently.

Marty was holding back tears after it happened. You could feel his regret through the screen

Marty would be so relieved with the 1 week and I'm sure the players will lift to ensure he gets to play finals this year

Yep, and he knew it as soon as it happened!!

It would go down as probably the greatest ever victory!!

I know of the exploits of all those games in the 70’s and 80’s but to win with 9 players including some of our very best would be well up there!!

That's the beauty of sport.

It allows individuals to rise above their limiting beliefs and reach beyond them in a safe arena

 

[Technical Coach]

I didn't think the tackle is as bad as the commentators are making out, the player ducks down a little on receiving the pass, it wasn't a full on flush hit, seen much worse that is for sure.

I am still amazed at the level of outrage in the media about this tackle. It wasn't pretty however I see no difference in the Kane Evans hit that floored Parker. That has not even rated a mention anywhere and the likes of 360 and controversy corner haven't shut up about Marty and on the one week we needed some Manly media personalities like Toovey or Spud supporting the club and talking over the negative asbestos attacks and Marty's tackle, the idiots at Fox decide to put 2 tigers has beens in Elias and Roach on when they aren't even in the finals series. I tell you what if there isn't a negative agenda against us we are the most unlucky club when it comes to accidental media damage.

I agree with every point you make here, apart from no difference with the kane Evans tackle, it was a direct shoulder to the head of Parker where Kapow was more a lazy, sloppy arm.

It would be better than 78 in my opinion. Half the 78 side went on the Roo tour that year and most played in the finals , even though they were wounded.
This is Blacktown v A side littered with rep players and finals experience. Winning this game fellow eagles is the holy grail for Des. His greatest challenge in my books.

Agree, but it ain’t over until the fat lady sings so if they are willing you never know.

Wouldn't miss you if you decided to go support another team!

[malroon]

If you don't think we'd miss Kapow then you are sadly mistaken.

Meanwhile, JWH is free to play this weekend... despite Liam Knight leaving the field on a medicab.

Hope he breaks a leg and ****s his pants as he hobbles from the field.
