NYC updates

[EOL now nesting on the GC]

Anyone make the NYC game on the weekend?

NRL.com is useless with any sort of useful information considering its supposed to be the premier youth comp.

I see we ran the sharks close and given how good that team is thats a pretty good result.

Been very quiet on this forum regarding Manly's U20s Holden Cup side. Yet this team, like first grade, has been gradually moving up the ladder with some apparently top performances in recent weeks after a slow start. They beat Souths 38-20, Brisbane 46-10, before losing to 7th placed Titans 36-10, then beat Canberra 34-18, 4th placed Knights 32-12, lost 30-34 to high flying first spot Cronulla who the week before beat the Tigers 84-6. Manly's last game was against the Warriors who they thrashed 58-12. They are sitting comfortably in 6th spot and face 2nd place Penrith this weekend.

I dont get to see these games but if anyone does, I would be most appreciative of a summary of the team and individual performances, pretty please. Its obvious there is quite a bit of talent rising here and there seems little interest being shown.

Funny you should mention that .... I was just looking for the same info about 20 minutes ago.
Manly's official site hasn't even put the score in 🙁

I like the report on the Warriors site :

"Meanwhile, the Vodafone Junior Warriors were unable to make it three wins in a row after falling 52-12 to the Manly Sea Eagles in Sydney.


In a performance they’ll be wanting to put behind them quickly, the Vodafone Junior Warriors were caught off guard by their impressive hosts.


In a one-sided contest they found themselves down 52-0 before a spirited fightback saw them run in two late consolation tries."

A spirited fightback from 52-0 to 58-12 is impressive stuff. They must have filed the report early, the final score was 58-12.

Sounds like the Vodafone Worriers phoned their performance in.
