Same old ****

[The better Robbo]

Same old Poor team selections
Same old Jorge coming in off his wing
Same old lady Suli in defence
Same old clunky last plays
Same old world's slowest backline
Same old no energy or spark in attack
Same old Chez rushing in in defence

Same old Des, poor coaching this season.

Shocking team selections and not holding poor performers accountable, hopefully the Cowboys give him what he wants.

 

[Steve76]

Sack defense coach, sack attack coach, forfeit next 6 games.
Sell DCE to dogs for half price.

Tafua Parker Elliot croker funa would not make any other team

Incredible how after 45 years I've finally witnessed a Manly team who have given up. This is now officially worse than the Barrett and Sharpe era teams

 

[The better Robbo]

As long as Des keeps picking Waddell, Levi, Croker, Gosie, Parker and Taufua we are no hope. There is room for maybe 2 of these type players BUT not all of them every week regardless of how poor they play.

 

[ManlyTragic]

I thought this was a “results driven business”

 

[manlyfan76]

We are missing Elliott

 

[Tomay]

It’s more the same old poor service from dummy half and same old lack of line speed and same old let their kicker have all day. These are very concerning.

 

[The better Robbo]

At what point do we start looking at Des? Other coaches have been sacked this year for less! I don't care that Des has been to 5 grand finals. He's recent coaching record is woeful and this year is a perfect example that he is too old school and stubborn

You forgot Garrick

Times like this I really wish we had Tooves

This squad can't compete. I think Des can coach, but he hasn't had luck polishing the assortment of turds that some call our "top" 30.

There's a few in our top 30 who haven't even been looked at, and one of them may well be playing for the Warriors tomorrow.

 

[mickqld]

If I was Penn I'd be calling every single one of them in tomorrow morning and tearing up contracts of every single back and half the forwards. The coach needs to be given a show cause letter.

It's his own fault we have 36 players including our rookies and Des has only played what 23 of them. We have been flogged a lot these past 2 months and Des keeps picking the same old ****! Schuster, Hoppa, Metcalfe, Miski, Olakau-atu, Sipley, Boyle just can't get a run. It is 100% Des' fault

 

[Ben]

Our defensive structure just gets pulled apart every week. Same shape being run to our wing always resulting tries. We are never in any games as our defence never gives us a chance. Im struggling to to emotionally invest anymore for my own self preservation

 

[manlyfan76]

It's not just player selection, it's a lack of 5th tackle options, no kick pressure, strike centre not getting good ball and on and on.

 

[Tragic Eagle]

I think Des is past it.

 

[bSw]

I think Des is past it.

Unfortunately it seems to be looking that way... our structures are all wrong, the players (as **** as they are) don't seem to be responding. Wtf has donny been doing with them?? Monaghan and Snake? Like seriously what kind of coaching is this?!

I hope Des isn't going senile... this is not manly
