Game Day: Souths v Manly [Finals Week 3, 2021]

[Go manly]

We played like boys

 

[HK_Eagle]

Love the **** talking the players spoke re learning from the storm final game... clearly learnt Nothing!

This. I mean, could they have underlined that point any more emphatically. And consolidate Girdler's comments in the process.

 

[DaveLP]

Good on the shoe hes had a cracker game tonight playing with a injured hand but still trying whatever he can

 

[Eagles4Life]

Pretty quiet at my place right now. Three generations of Manly supporters are definitely feeling the pain and disappointment of this performance. To be honest we are all completely shattered. However, what we are feeling is nothing in comparison to how the boys will feel after the game. Let's not forget how hard they have worked to get us here tonight. It's been a monumental effort all year, but clearly Des and the boys have got a lot of work to do in the preseason. Yes it's devastating tonight, but overall we are proud of the boys performance this year. Go Manly.

 

[HoldenV8]

From the moment the team bus was delayed, nothing has gone right tonight.

 

[Technical Coach]

The "obvious" disappointing aspect is a touch of composure with effective direct go forward and Manly could have easily won this game. Souths looked brittle as farkkkk with our lateral spreads yet we didn't even give ourselves the respect of half a chance with how ineffective we are and the big players not contributing to a composed leadership based performance.

The positive defensive reads under the mountain of tackles in the early stages was great to watch compared to some of the poor defensive reads and structure of previous weeks, the effort was there just ruined by ineffective overall play.

 

[Disco]

Not going to get anywhere with 13 errors

Disappointing

 

[Lyonstomenzies]

Every DCE kick has put in the South’s team have had pressure on him like no tomorrow.


We really need to sort the 4th tackle plays so they are fast and the runner beats his man and gets a fast play of the ball.

 

[Scorpio]

Not worth a sin bin

 

[mjb136]

Another low IQ play. Unbelievable.

 

[Simonmyers11]

pretty ordinary game by the whole team tonight, forwards have gone missing for weeks now

 

[skull61]

I’ll say it now but Aloali is hopeless

 

[mave]

Lol, we are back to Magic Round rules.

 

[Kalvin]

Aloai needs to learn to channel his
Aggression effectively next year... he's a pelican at times

 

[Ranga]

Tom needs to do whatever he can to learn how to be a big game player

Other than in Origin where he routinely gets MOM

 

[Arko-admirer]

We're being shown up now. The sobering fact is that we not quite top tier

 

[Dan]

Penalty, report move on. Bin over the top but he's been **** since he got injured

 

[Supreme Leader]

Anyway guys and ladies, 0 and 4 we make tonight, so that is a massive over achievement. Proud of what we did, got to admit there is a class differential between Melb / Penrith will be nothing next year, they will get flogged next week. Our great team has growth, more maturity, more experience to learn from next year. Expect huge season next year.

 

[Cioran]

Harper's the worst player I have ever seen honestly.

Give Des and Donny an off season with him.

 

[Ranga]

Not worth a sin bin

Well, it was in Round 10 but not since then.
