Non-Manly Games [Round 5, 2017]

[MadMarcus]

Attendance of 7,412 in a stadium that holds 83,500. Conditions aside, its rather pathetic really.

Looked more like 5k to me.

 

[Woodsie]

Sharks 18 Newc 18 4 mins to go

 

[Woodsie]

Sharks 19 Newc 18 Bugger.

eels game anyone?
2 forward passes and it's a try? thus is why the nrl it's a joke

 

[Deleted member 26876]

Something... Anything, has to be done about monitoring forward passes

But not just a ball floating forward, the players receiving the balls are clearly standing well in front of the players throwing the ball - complete joke

 

[Harvies elbow]

The only forward pass they did pick up from gutherson was that forward Aaron Rodgers would've been proud of it.

 

[Harvies elbow]

2 great days in a row.
Us annihilating the feather dusters yesterday and the parasites doing what they do best and losing again.
Now for the scum to go down and weekend complete !!
Is it just me who finds the storm f**king boring ???

 

[manlyfan76]

What's a matter Parramatta?

 

[Ryan]

I think I'm a terrible person. I actually enjoy the demise and misery of Parramatta, so much so that I watch their games in hopes of failure. Them, and The Chooks.

 

[HoldenV8]

Don't feel terrible @Ryan . I for one hope for misfortune for 15 teams in the NRL 😉. I don't mean injuries to players, but the more they lose the happier I am.

 

[Harvies elbow]

So this round - rooters look like Newcastle.
- scum look like the rooters.
At least the riff still look like flavoured milk !!

 

[Mark from Brisbane]

I hate to say it but gee the Drizzle look good, the Riff are throwing everything but the kitchen sink at them and they are almost impenetrable!

 

[Deleted member 24974]

Canberra look great when playing in Canberra but every other team look very beatable.

 

[NYEagle]

Melbournes defense is outstanding, no doubt. But wow do they get away with a skinny 10 metres and are allowed to walk off the mark 5 metres each play. That helps.

 

[The Insomniac]

Chambers is the best defensive centre in the comp maybe even the best overall, Moylen is a myth.

 

[Terry Zarsoff]

I think I'm a terrible person. I actually enjoy the demise and misery of Parramatta, so much so that I watch their games in hopes of failure. Them, and The Chooks.

The sad thing is they are being gifted a new stadium, paid for from the sale of the Land and Titles Office, or whatever they're calling it now. A huge blunder, if it goes ahead. And it looks like it will. Idiots.

Ideally that plan will come asunder and they will be stuck playing at Homebush for years to come.

 

[Mark from Brisbane]

Panthers to me look light on for quality big men. No go forward so they kept going wide and getting nowhere. Don't rate tamou at all. Merrin good but not much else.

Jeez the penalty count didn't help the Riff much did it?

And of course the Drizzle getting away with their usual ****!!

Really I'm such a cynical bastard but gee you'd think some games are almost preordained!!

The word clinical is used to describe their results more than any other team.Anymore 'clinical'and you may as well watch a game of soccer.

 

[Mark from Brisbane]

Agree. It's been said before but the storm have got cynical manipulation down to a fine art. Every tackle is a master class in subtle grub tactics, with cam the untouchable the conductor. Nothing worse than watching a storm game - only did so because panthers are my second side.

Ditto, and only because of my son in law!!
