MVP: Rd 2 Roosters v Sea Eagles

[ALinda]

3) Turbo by a country mile and played against the best FB
2) Jake - what a machine
1) DCE - FG Specialist

Special mentions - Garrick (what a save!), Parker (his best game till hurt), Croker (his best game and spot-on pass for DCE's FG).

 

[Mark from Brisbane]

Turbo
Dylan
Scorpio ( even with his 20 minutes injured)

Pleasantly surprised with Froggy off the bench as well.

Hard to find one that didn’t do their bit.

Tom - 3 (Best defensive effort i have seen from a fullback in quite some time)
Parker - 2 ( Although he made one terrible error coughing the ball up early on in the set in our own 20, he made several strong runs down the edge and put his body on the line with some awesome defence)
Croker - 1 ( Made the bone crunching tackle on Tedesco forcing the ball loose, giving the team perfect field position to set up for a field goal)

Walker deserves pts i know. He played great but still waiting for him to use his pace to create more opportunities through the middle.

When he smashed Morris over the sideline, I’m just thinking hallelujah Brett Stewart. Awesome.

Special mention.... Anasta/Voss next time game will be with no crowd, and on mute. The way Voss carried on against Manly, seemed he must have gone home all depressed about our win 🙂

3. Tom -did it all
2. Jake - tackled everything, considering his lack of off-season the guy is just a freak
1. Siro - really good signs, I really hope he finally gets a full season
Honourable mention to DCE, Walker, Parker, AFB & Marty

Bbt...Biff: as Global intimated, a popular nickname in various walks (no pun intended) of life, for people surnamed Walker, is ‘Phantom’ or ‘the Ghost who...etc.’

 

[Tragic Eagle]

Turbo - wombat / Stewart like performance
Jake- A machine
Walker / Parker - tie for 1 point both great in attack and defence.

I wonder why the Phantom walks, did he lose his license?

I wonder why the Phantom walks, did he lose his license?

Maybe it was the trade-off for not being able to die?

"Ghost who walks, can not die"

"You get to live forever!" - woohoo!
"But you gotta walk everywhere." - aww man...

Special mentions:

Croker- amazing strip at a crucial time, great kick chases, smart dummy half plays with DCE.

Sirro- loves playing at is dads old ground. Massive hits in defence when we needed a lift. Put the sting in his hit ups too. Lifted the team in general when required.

Walker- what a boot, good running and kicking game caused defence to scramble each time he ran.

Levi- This guy has only had half an offseason with us but playing like DCE’s second set of eyes and hands. Top effort

AFB- had a limited off season with shoulder surgery.. I couldn’t tell you which one it was! Insane motor for a big man.

Boyle- It was freaking me out how many times I thought we’d recruited an in form RCG to come off the bench this week. Solid sub!

Suli- one of his most mature and involved games. Keep the hair tied back seems to help his game today. Composed himself well in a grinding game and took some hit ups when we needed it

Parker- caused 3 defenders to swarm on him every chance he got the ball. Sign of respect that even the roosters see this rangy Scorpio as a threat on the outside. Defence was sharp too

All in alll a great game from the Manly Sea Eagles, well done all of them!!

Awesome work by Parker and also a mention to whipping boy Croker who was great off the bench yesterday.

Wish I could've given points to Brad Parker too!!! Can't wait to watch a replay of the game today heheh

 

[Chip and Chase]

A lot of what Parker contributed was on the back of good work by The Phantom. Imagine if Scorpio had a turn of foot or tackle busting ability - those half chances would have been turned into genuine line breaks. No knock on Parker, he still had a good game and did everything asked of him, just wonder what happens if Suli is outside Walker yesterday for example.
