Origin 1 - 2024

[Eagle 1]

Feel for him but I felt that first 20 in the second half wasn’t time to get him back on. Would prob have got him in at the 60min mark tho. Yeo was gassed at that point as well. Young selection was puzzling would have had Burton there. Jake filthy at the end you could see. Never have I seen his jersey that clean.

Honestly it’s origin who really cares. Our players fit for Penrith that’s the main thing.

He'll come out spitting chips on Sunday.

 

[HoldenV8]

Personally I think the pressure got to Maguire tonight and he largely just plain forgot that his team captain had been sitting on the bench uninjured since the 29th minute.

Either that or he had a deliberate plan to embarrass Jake.

 

[Disco]

Haven't read through all of this.....but that was definitely a send off.

Union idiot.

 

[Chunkytuna]

Gotta say, granted they were thrown a curve ball by the send off, but the use of the interchange was abysmal tonight for NSW. How did Jake get 25 mins??

[Terry Zarsoff]

Ur right , but I’d rather Jake fresh for us , same with hamole who was not given much of a go and poorly used when he was on

Perhaps he was all at sea because of the forced changes to the backline.

To be fair too, he was given a chance and apart from one vaguely promising run, he looked like he was playing with Fentanyl in his system. I think Hynes gave up on passing to him after short while.

I hope he was taking note of how players like Leniu approach the game. Run hard into the defence like your life depends on it. Or Lomax, who had a great debut.

Has anyone seen Madge? Did he have a hearty when Sualili was sent? Certainly wasn't any common sense coaching coming out of the box. (Not complaining)

He may even make a tackle break as well

 

[seaeagles4life]

Hynes was near worst player on the field, his defence cost multiple tries and I gave up counting all the hospital passes he threw and no cohesion in attack

 

[JBW]

Poorly coached, 6 and the 7 must go. Both were poor.

Glad both our guys were hardly used and the Panthers guys played big minutes. DCE is a freak.

Go Manly!

 

[sheridanstand78]

We saw the best of DCE tonight, his running game was great, we badly need that from him for Manly!!

At the risk of sounding like a broken record, he’s not up to origin speed. He’s barely up to NRL speed. Agree he needs to take note of those players you mentioned AND Liam Martin.

 

[Eagle 1]

That was funny when Hammer scored his first, and gave the Dolphin sign.

 

[LeonardCohen]

DCE: arguably his best flat track bully effort to date, in his 14th year of first grade.

To dominate and win MOM at 35 in that arena is testament to a champion!

 

[Ron E. Gibbs]

Wow, bringing Jake on for the last 4 minutes… what is going on in Maguire’s head?

At least he’s not injured.

I figured he wanted him on to the field to shake hands. No other explanation.

Hard to judge NSW after having to play a man down for most of the game. Lomax was excellent, Stephen Crichton and Reece Robson were good. To'o did a lot of work. Haumole looked okay in the short time he was out there.

If taking out Reece Walsh really was part of the NSW plan, it didn't seem to work very well. The Hammer killed us.

Yep he was hopeless. Did one good kick all game. The rest were poor.

He is our third or fourth string half mind you. I’d even have Burton above him. At least he has a killer kicking game

I actually think Luia had good game. Looked like one of the only players for NSW that would break the line.

 

[eaglebuzz]

Hynes was awful, Tedesco just doesn't have what it takes now to impact the contest. Hopefully Edwards is right by game 2.

If I were Madge I'd run with:

Edwards
???? (Surely we have someone better than To'o)
Crichton
Mitchell
Lomax
Burton
Moses

He did kick one mini bomb that led to a try, mind you, he did have heaps of time for the kick.
