Shaun "Exit" Lane mega thread.

[Woodsie]

Woodsie, I have watched Lane play against us when he was playing in the 20s and he killed us in one particular game at Brooky.
I then would look out for him when I would go to games until he made 1st grade and he always impressed.

Also caught his debut game for dogs at Belmore when he went over for a try to win it for them.

Mate don't kid urself we played a very weak cows side and I'm holding off judgement on how we are really traveling.
One thing I know, I've watched brown miss tackles and drop balls at critical moments in tight games which has been the catalyst for us losing them in the past year and again against Souths this year 1mtr out from Souths try line.

We don't want to be like Parra supporters and think everything is fine after one win.
Have to look at the bigger picture mate. If ur telling me Brown deserves to be in the squad instead of giving Lane a chance is laughable especially after so many bad games!

Never mentioned Brown, what he has to do with my comments I have no idea. But for the record I think he will finally be in reggies this week.

As far as Lane goes you are not the first to believe in the kid. Bulldogs and warriors and now Manly coaching staff have all seen his potential at different times. He is yet, for whatever reason, to fulfil his destiny. I hope he does. But forgive me if I don't get a stiffy over one good run against fuched opponents 2 mins before fulltime.

He will get plenty of opportunities this year and I hope he takes them .... you are correct, if he grows a pair he will be awesome.

But I was far more impressed by blokes that tackled their c,,nts all night, even if you believe it was against a "very weak cows side" than anything Lane did.

I would not mind a crack myself

Fingers crossed about Brown being in reggies and hopefully Lane gets an opportunity.
Bulldogs and warriors have always been spoilt for forwards hence Finucane to storm and the countless warriors Fwds that have left for other clubs.

My point is let's not waste our time on dead wood and try something new.

And mate I'm still proud of Sats win but not getting excited at this stage

I sew lane the other night. Thought he was quiet until that run. Only other time ive seen him was when slater kicked him in the head taking the bomb. I can only judge him by that short clips , so my conclusion is slater is a fukwit

 

[nightster]

We should all be happy because the performance of Bainbridge, Lane and Hastings means competitive options for our pack.
Throw Lussick and Perrett back into the mix and we should be feel pretty confident about going toe to toe with the big boys.

and AFB

 

[nightster]

... he looks so much better in maroon & white than he does in blue & white

 

[nightster]

its great to have some options ..... we have some very good backrowers ... and competition for the other spot (Marty has one spot sewn up), should see them all performing at a high standard ...... for the record I rate Lane ... I have since he started and I'm stoked he is a Seaeagle ... I think if he plays consistently to his potential he will gain huge crowd support ....

 

[SeaEagleRock8]

148 metres, try assist, 39 tackles, 4 missed tackles. Not bad, 80 minutes and he didn't look tired. Obviously been conserving himself so far this season 😉

 

[Deleted member 26876]

Very good performance

 

[Mark from Brisbane]

Good effort, well done Shaun.

 

[Danly Manly]

Well i did tell you earlier that he would have a blinder. ****THE REFSCUMS!

 

[Terry Zarsoff]

If that pass to Walker wasn't forward in the first half, we probably win the game.

If he plays like that next week...

 

[Woodsie]

Well, said it elsewhere but I will repeat it ... I eats me hat ... he had a go and did good.

 

[SeaEagleRock8]

He is a serious weapon. He will surely hold his spot for next week and from there the ball is in his court, he could be a starter for the rest of the year.

 

[mave]

2nd best for us tonight, after DCE

 

[COMMANDER]

Where has Shaun Lane been all my life.

Don't worry about the loss, a more important piece of the puzzle came together tonight with this guy.

 

[The Who]

Well done Penny. Maroon Fields forever!

 

[SeaEagle21]

That performance was very good and he will slot in nicely whilst Siro is out

 

[Harvies elbow]

Great game from him.
Geez he can motor...

No need for a thread. I've said it all along. This kid is a beast in 1st grade.
Different things motivate different personalities. With Lane, when he is supported and given opportunity, he excels.
