Post-Game Discussion Raiders v Manly [Round 23, 2021]

[QLDSeaeagle]

Yay, now we get to be 4th for two days.

If that tackle in last seconds was in the first 5 mins it’s a set restart why is it a penalty in the last minute

 

[Jerry1]

Walker was excellent tonight

Suli was better

Walker was excellent tonight

Such high intensity. Sparked the team off the bench in my opinion, but the mob here won't ever acknowledge that or his effort.

 

[Pepi]

While we didn't make it easy it was good that we beat the Raiders at their own game in the 2nd half

 

[Rafferty]

We take the 2, we move on, there’s a lot to improve on, but we never gave up and worked hard in defence, regardless of making way to many errors, well done, it another happy week and we look good in 4th, now to death ride the chooks.

Gee.

Raiders pushed storm last week and showed similar desperation this week. They tried to bring us down to their level in a dogfight for a while and without trbo we were vulnerable to just cave in against the pressure. However, in the end we stood up and grabbed the game. The last minutes were insane though, but we survived I guess.

Suli made a huge claim and I don’t think he stepped a foot wrong in defence this week (rather I thought Funa was the weak link).

Garrick with the error as always but was servicable.

Olakatau great. Lawton substitution at same time as subbing some forwards on probably saved the game because we were getting tired again.

Lazy Jake, useless Marty, can't kick Chezza, and yet another premature Silvertails HT implosion got us hone in the end.

The fact we win does not detract from the first half tripe.

Players attitude and intensity was way off, we don’t deserve Tom if we can’t play better than that without him

 

[HK_Eagle]

What was dumber than a lot of our game tonight was the decision to leave Turbo out. I am still fuming over that decision. Is the club lying to the fans about the seriousness of his health, or was it some ridiculous psychological thing to show the boys can win without him. I'm flabbergasted.

 

[Ryan]

Just confirms most peoples opinion we are bog average without Turbo. This was a soft performance.

Agree mate, first half was ordinary, but we went back to our game that second half. Much more energy and impact.

Thought Aloiai was great.
Thought Marty was great.
Thought Lawton off the bench was great
Thought Walks was great

Sirro thanks for reminding us all why we miss you !

2 points is 2 points ladies and gents

Why are we bombing to Saab’s corner ? He hasn’t contested one all night

Cause he was getting escorted off the ball all night

@Eagle of London you can add my quotes to your list lol i said some things in the thread i am eating humble pie.

 

[Disco]

Didnt really jump on here during the game but reckon I missed an epic meltdown 😂😂😂

Yes it is. We take the win. As ugly as it was there were a lot of positive as well.

 

[Dion Johnson]

Suli was awesome with the ball along with Guaca, looked likely every time they had the ball.

Hopefully Duli gets a run there next week with Turbo back.

 

[Ryan]

Omfg, in the middle.of a reply in the other thread as usual it's cut completely off mid stream. So frustrating !

 

[niccipops]

Faark, thank you Manly. was with family members that didn't have the faith.
I had the faith.
Go Manly!

 

[The Royal Soup]

What a terrible game of football!
Ref put the whistle away in the second half too!
