NON-Manly games: [Round 12, 2020]

[wombatgc]

Our sport is far too painful to watch with the refereeing. It can’t be a coincidence that it is always the same teams that benefit. No wonder viewership is down, everyone turns it off 20 minutes in when they see it’s another sham

It got that bad after 25 minutes, I went and struck up a conversation with next doors dog, and he talked me into giving him a 20 minute walk. At least the BP has dropped. If it continues in the second half, the dog might get his second stress relieving walk.

Jai Arrow.... iv said for awhile now the biggest gronks get the hottest girls. Appears im correct. What the **** is that haircut.... he should be shot

 

[Ranga]

Penalty try and 8 point try are 2 different things. You are correct that if they didn't ground the ball it may well have been a penalty try but 8 point try is for foul play (high shot, knees in the back or alike).

I wasn’t calling for an 8 point try. More that the titans were disadvantaged by actually scoring the try as their shot at goal wasn’t from in front as it would have been if they didn’t score the try anyway. Confusingly worded I know, but clear as day in my mind!

 

[Ranga]

If I was the titans, I would have preferred a penalty try instead of the bin. The bunker got that right, for once.

Chooks getting plenty of help from Henry

Uncle Nick has had Analsley on the phone at h/t. Too close for comfort so let's bring it home for the rorters Perenatal and the blundker.

 

[mickqld]

The set restarts to the rorters are pouring out of Perinium like a puss filled boil.

Dale Copley... gotta hand it to him, he has been impersonating a 1st grader for years now.. i wonder how much this dud gets paid

My bad, forgot penalty tries are awarded under the sticks.

 

[Mark from Brisbane]

So Ashley Taylor is a 1.2 million a year player ..........and who signed that contract back in the day ??

 

[Bring back the.... Biff?]

The tits are out of milk

Fuk I hate listening to these bullshting commentators. Rorters find a way to win. The only thing they found was the constant set restarts leg ups, bullsht set restart decisions, rubbish penalty goals and bunker blunders. Another example of the cheating haves getting special brown paper bag treatment.

Sickening

 

[HoldenV8]

He is a gun. Parker just doesn't excite you. Just an avg player, good defence but not very threatening with the ball.

Hence why some of us think that we'd be better off dropping Jorge and moving Garrick to the left outside Parker. Right now Brad has the slowest winger in the NRL on his outside. He's capable of putting a winger into space, but right now what's the point when the winger is run down 5-10 metres later?

IMO Garrick on the left with Parker, Suli at right wing outside Walks and Cust at 5/8 is probably our best option which could be even more lethal when Turbo returns. Tom loves his passes to the left and Garrick with his pace would be the perfect foil.

Sorry to say but Jorge would be flat out trying to stay with a grandpa on a Segway.

Surely the Gummies winger who got easily run down by a prop yesterday is slower than Horge.

On a side note...would you put money on Parker being faster than Horhay?

I dont think Jorge is that slow . He goes ok in 2nd gear

@40 years an eagle . You have been following our Eagles and seen more games than most of us
Have you seen a slower centre/ wing combination than our current line up ?

I'd actually put my money on Parker. And yeah that was a pretty good effort from the Drongos red headed prop. He only got foiled by the jumper ripping, otherwise he had him.

A few years ago (2015 I believe) Jorge took an intercept in a game against Cronulla at Brookie. He took the ball only 5 out from our line. Sam Tagataese, a front rower, ran him down on the Sharks 20.

And Jorge is even slower in 2020.

Some big units are very quick over 40-50m (speaking as a former forward). It’s the 100m and repeat efforts where they struggle

Not that I can recall...although I believe Garrick is the second fastest in our current full-strength 17.
