Game Day: Panthers v Manly [Round 6, 2023]

[Top End Eagle]

Worst first half since nineteen eighty!

What a **** show! If Garrick doesn’t come back Weekes needs to go to no wing and Parker back to centre. Weekes’ defence is being badly exposed as is Parker under the high ball. In saying that the main issue on the left seems to Kelma, either our of position or straight out missing tackles.

As for the right side, Harper is being dusted for speed leaving Saab to make tackles which putting it nicely is not his strength. So not sure what we do there 🤦🏻‍♂️

 

[The Royal Soup]

It's funny.

yep!! laughing stock of the whole NRL

 

[Under the Sticks]

28 missed tackles in 30 minutes

 

[Waz13]

I’m sick of the ****ing excuses, PARKER has to ****ing go immediately. ****ing slow and hopeless.Can’t even ****ing catch a bomb.

That’s the problem tho. We have nobody to replace him. Koula out and who comes in? Harper!!! Imagine dce was on $200k less a year and who the Centre replacement could be? Or at least Parker would be depth. Harper should not be near first grade.

Ain’t watching the 2nd half it too embarrassing

 

[Wombat64]

To any manly fans who made the trip out to Penrith the club should pay for your petrol home, hang in there I feel for you all.

My kid and his mates drove the 2 hours out ...... I told him not too.....

It is probably a lot more as a lot of breaks, Manly never got a hand on the Riff players.

That's what you get when you raid the Wests Tigers for forwards.....

I cancelled my membership last year until they proved to me they were fairdinkum. Think I made the right decision.

 

[JenEagle]

Very hard to chose the darkest day in our club's history? Over the past few years there have been so many....... this is just another one to add to the list. Are we actually wearing rainbow jerseys and that's what the issue is?

Yeah agree. We had some shocking performances in 2016. Worse in 2018. Then terrible in 2020 and four awful performances in 2021 before Tom had the best season ever and some horror performances last year as well.

 

[hozza]

DCE sitting and casually having a chat in the change rooms. Should be destroying people, he’s the captain. Not one soul listening to him.

Siebs should have the baseball bat out. It’s a disgrace.

Punt The million dollar Giraffe, Turbo is fuked, centres… free up as much cash as possible.

 

[winnyason]

We have hardly had the ball for DCE or anyone else to do anything. Harper and Parker are what we're stuck with while Koula is out.

Bit that's the issue here. Harper and Parker are not good enough so that's okay captain collects big dough while watching the **** outside him ?
We never going anywhere with him at 7. 2011 is long gone.
He had stuff all too with it.

Yeah but they did the army course over pre-season and that was to build teamwork and resilience. It worked.

 

[The Indian]

Unpopular opinion....last week was as bad as this.

It's just last week we played awful against a poor team.... this week we've arrived with the same level and been embarrassed by a gun side.

Writing was on the wall

 

[SeaEagleRock8]

It's a learning year. Like, NRL kindergarten.

 

[Deleted member 26876]

Been a joke for years now mate….

We only looked like a full blown joke after the jersey issue. Lost 7 games with the squad just blatantly not wanting to play for eachother.

Dissapointing is a fair word for 2022, but if the last few years are classified as a joke then i'd hate to see the new word we contrive to describe it if we keep trending in the current direction.

Weekes 17 tackles I miss. Not so bad

Sorry to hear that won't be an enjoyable night.
I was very close myself going out there, so glad I didn't.
