Non-Manly Games [Round 5, 2019]

[HappilyManly]

Interesting how MCK is the hero and most people forget he has been charged with exactly the same charges as Dylan Walker.

Chee was charged with common assault on a stranger driving an Uber out in public.

Walker is on a DV charge on a woman inside her own home

The only commonality is that both are assaults

Chee is also reputedly a devout Mormon

The circumstances giving rise to the charged were obviously different (and facts yet to proved in court), but I thought both were charged with the same - assault occasioning actual bodily harm and common assault?

Both would have had a myriad of charges sadly

Outside of the obvious issue around the halves one of Brisbane’s main issues is the pack is so one dimensional. Outside of Lodge who has a decent pass Fafita Haas Pantai Gillette etc are all good athletes with a power game but there is no real creativity.McCullough has an overused dummy and that’s it. This just puts more pressure on the 6 and 7 to come up with plays.

I think the problem with the Donkeys is that they don't have a hard-head, experienced forward leader. They have all these young, big, attacking forwards who look good when they have the ball, but as the Tugers proved if you can stay in the contest with the Donkeys you can usually out-guts them in the end. That's why I think we can beat them, and other teams that have more mentally strong forwards.
For me, if the Donkeys had someone like Joel Thompson - a true professional who never shirks in defence - they would be more successful.

We play the Broncos in 'Magic' Round 9.

What is even more embarrassing than their performances is that it will be their 8th game on free-to-air TV this year. It will be our first.

The only free-to-air coverage 'minnow' clubs like Manly, Canberra and Titans receive is when they play the Donkeys.
That's spreading-the-code NRL style.

Sitting in the near empty Titans Stadium.....(dont judge me, I'm desperate for some live NRL action). Even if Mudgeeraba redbacks draw a bigger crowd.

Lol I typed in redbacks, and it comes up as Rednecks!.....very close to the mark though....

 

[wombatgc]

Ok definitely playing Penrith. Riff supporters to my left have just lit up the biggest blunt I've seen since Cheech & Chong.

I thought about going but the rain put me off, staying home and eating thai.

 

[wombatgc]

Brian Kelly strong as f.

 

[HappilyManly]

Kels is the brains of the Titans attack

 

[Tomay]

Geez the Titans always cop a hammering from the refs with penalties.

 

[HappilyManly]

That Wallace hit really lifted the Titans 24-24 16mins to go

 

[mickqld]

Kelly you knob. Titans blew a big chance.

 

[HappilyManly]

Penalty try Titans 30-24 11mins left

 

[HappilyManly]

Ugly win to Titans - suck it Gus 30-24

 

[Tomay]

Ripper of a game. The Titans have a great forward pack, just need those halves to create some chances, peachy to learn to pass and their backs to tackle.

 

[wombatgc]

Im going down to give BK a hug.
