Game Day: Storm v Manly [Finals 1, 2021]

[HK_Eagle]

Their forwards owned us tonight
Yes mistakes cost us dearly
We can bounce back next week if we can learn from this

You mean like we learned from our Round 21 game against the Storm and applied tonight? lol

 

[The Royal Soup]

Disgrace

 

[Scorpio]

Tom looks injured

 

[Dan]

Counted 2 obstructions in that set from Melbourne on our line

 

[DaveLP]

No leadership from the senior players.
Marty too many penalties
Foran invisible
Cherry bad defence plus just bad overall
Turbo quiet for his standards
Jake too many six agains given away
All of that plus most 50/50s going storms way... lucky they haven't put 50 on us tbh

 

[HK_Eagle]

FFS, even Turbo's disinterest in picking up that knock on tells a lot about his mindset tonight.

And 1 run in the second half for 6m. I can't believe he's allowed Storm to get under his skin and he's just flown a white flag. I'm shocked

 

[Chuck]

Melbourne too well drilled and smart for us right now. Gifting them points (Harper directly responsible for 3-4 tries) and horrible officiating hasn't helped.

But we'd be kidding ourselves if we think we have their measure.

 

[joeboy]

Tom looks like he is on qaaludes tonight.

We really haven’t had a good player tonite

 

[The Royal Soup]

They have given up

 

[Mal Cochrane]

Schuster is annoying me tonight big time

 

[bob dylan]

How is a team with

Jennings

Remis Smith

and

Lumelume

so dominant.

 

[Met eagle]

No chance.
Not on any of our last 4 weeks performances.
Season over

Agree the last few games against lowly sides was dazzle dazzle throw the ball around, not good semi final preparation.

 

[Steve76]

Shoe has needed to do a lot more for weeks now

Needs to start of bench. Replace foran after 25min.
Foran can go back on dummyhalf midway through second half.
Suli to the centres.

We denied his dad of his only chance at a first grade premiership in 1976.

Thank you @HoldenV8, I got to relive that game for a few seconds then.

Thats all I’ve got to hang onto atm @HoldenV8 .

 

[PONTIAN SEA EAGLE]

I thought we could win the comp that year.

The t rex pass to no one on the 1st tackle play the ball was enough to say season over.He didn’t even look at the player.

Noticed that too, didn't even want to pick it up and run, so double knock on and opportunity for Melbourne to set their d.

 

[bob dylan]

I wonder if Tom will take his milk hot or cold???

And I thought Trex could of taken us all the way.

.....off Papenhuyzen's leg.

Nah we missed that.
