Game Day: Sharks v Manly [Round 20, 2021]

[The Indian]

Playing like its the Wednesday night mixed touch footy B grade round robin.

Hold the ball and play normal footy would do.

So so so frantic tonight.

 

[wombatgc]

Just disappointing again to see how brittle we can be. It's just not good enough for top 4. Deadset get Parker off and Walker to center. The experiment is over. The Storm will run 50 through Parker.

You beat me to it Mick.

 

[KaZa]

Parker having a shocker, both with and without the ball.

We are too side to side for my liking.

Gotta work them over in the middle first.

Still why I'm not convinced on him. Especially when we have Walker....

 

[Kalvin]

What is with Parker and suncorp stadium?!?!

 

[Kevinward777]

That’s actually a disgusting half. Should have at least 30 on the board

Jigz and Freemason Stroney are laying the boot in again - I feel much more confident now.

 

[joeboy]

If he hadn’t intercepted they would have scored there and then

I don’t think they would have. And if they would have it coz he was out of position.

One of the fist things you learn is if you scream up in the line, you gotta make the catch.

 

[Snake]

I think we came out with intent and then when we got to 16 nil up, we just wanted to party and couldn’t be bothered defending with intensity...not enough kick pressure and line speed.

this team need to learn to play tough and win ugly. Touch football won’t work in the finals.

 

[Fibro Eagle]

Just need to start completing there sets , only 13 from 20 with 9 errors , cut down the errors complete the sets and they will go on and win

 

[Jerry1]

Brandy is so bias.

Usually find Brandy is one of the better commentators.

 

[Heckenberg]

Parker just has nowhere near enough upside in his defence to make up for whatever else he’s lacking. He gets great ball so often and is just too slow and boring to do anything with it.

 

[Bailey]

Hank has definitely won me over this season, but recently his lack of pace and no ball control is costing us dearly... It's time we think about putting Walker at left centre. This would also free up a bench spot too.

 

[Kevinward777]

Biff walks among us

Welcome back son!

 

[Met eagle]

So far with this performance, even if we win, we are making up numbers in the finals. Storm and Rabbitohs would have put the knife through the sharks with relentless fervour.

 

[DaveLP]

Leave Parker on just get him to run the block for shoe who has turbo and garrick to work with at least he has options. Why use shoe as a decoy if Parkers just going to hit it up. Chez needs to use haumole more often he doesn't always have to go straight to saab. Fix up the handling errors and we will be fine. Play the middle it worked in the beginning.

 

[Mark from Brisbane]

As I said half way through the half.

Get back to the basics , and the razzle dazzle can come later.

 

[nightster]

As many of us have been saying - we need to tighten up our defence - nothing wrong with our attack - storm will be enjoying watching how fragile we are

 

[joeboy]

Need a tough second half put the party tricks away and knuckle down

I hope Parker lifts

 

[Tragic Eagle]

Need to respect the footy and the opposition. Playing like we are playing against the reserve grade at training.

 

[The Indian]

C'mon leaders DCE Foran Jake and Tom. Calm down. Stop playing Harlem globe trotters and trying to score off every play.

We are very potent in attack but schizophrenic sometimes too.

Reset at half time boys

 

[Scorpio]

Still 6 points ahead so we should put them to the sword after a half time spray by Desmond
