Non Manly Games [Round 22, 2019]

[HoldenV8]

Don’t you listen to Izzy..... you will go straight to hell watching that stuff!

I'd rather watch Sharon than listen to Izzy.

Besides, hell will be a holiday for me. I'm the Al Bundy of my house

Don’t you listen to Izzy..... you will go straight to hell watching that stuff!

I dont blame Izzy or any one else for my own down falls feathered friend . I take full accountability for my actions .

 

[Hoppa]

Happy to play the Sharks in the semis.

 

[wombatgc]

Woeful game.

 

[HappilyManly]

Woeful game.

That last try was under 6s - letting the ball bounce

 

[Dee Why Eagle]

That last try was under 6s - letting the ball bounce

Manly would never allow for that to happen

Wade Graham just admitted that he did touch it

Wade Graham just admitted that he did touch it

To be fair though, on the TV replays, I thought that was inconclusive

The winning equation is this .....

We have no control over the refs errors on the field

We do have control over our errors on the field

Manly does have a high error rate and if we cut down on that we will go along way in winning this years title .

 

[Cliffymagic]

Never seen a player spit so much as Moylan.

 

[HappilyManly]

Poor Liddle will not be back till late 2020
Torn acl, mcl and pcl from his mate falling into his knee 😱

 

[Kiwi Eagle]

I don’t understand the uproar over the Wade Graham incident

If he touched it, it went directly to a man standing 1m behind him, play on and try

Umm maybe one of the referees could have asked Graham

View attachment 12245 I don’t understand the uproar over the Wade Graham incident

I thought that ball travelled forward through his hands, if he touched it then it's a knock on, irrespective of where Xerri is standing

Well....

If in doubt, keep the prime minister happy.

lol

The ball waa travelling forward before it hit him and went backwards of his arm, if he touches the ball on the line and it gets caught behind the line it can’t hsve travelled forward

The problem with all of this is that the referee has to send it up to the bunker as "try " or " no try" and most of the time the bunker is loathe to overrule the referee, why not send it up as "don't know".
It looked like a knock on in real time, so call it a knock on, rather than going through countless replays that were inconclusive.

 

[The Who]

Anybody been to the SCG recently to watch a match of rugby league?
I went yesterday courtesy of a friend who is a member. While the beer on tap was good and easy to access the atmosphere at the ground was akin to a funeral.
The ground announcer had to boost up the crowd cheering audio to try to create some excitement, and if there was 12,200 in the crowd many must have been hiding.
From the Members Stand the view was ordinary. On the way home I stopped for refreshment and watched the second half of the Sharks match.
The ground looked full and the crowd was close to the action. Not sure how many was in attendance but it really emphasised that suburban grounds add to the atmosphere.

S'funny how the media dubbed it the 'hand of God', it was a big call in respect to the game, and report on how it may kick start the sharks premiership, run (positive stories), but when Foz may or may not have touched a ball against the cowboys, the world exploded even though we beat them by 1000000 points.
