2017 R7 Sat - Sea Eagles 26-30 Storm @ Lottoland

[Front-Rower]

I don't like Manly but credit where credit is due, their cheerleaders are absolutely adorable

Thought exact same thing. Whilst to me that's clearly a try they've disallowed a few in the exact same scenarios recently.

I hope this is their new standard. It's common sense. But when video refs have been allowed that they tend to get wildly inconsistent.

Wow manly score off that BS knock on Melbourne call.... Ref's gettingamly back intonit

 

[GongPanther]

The Alphabet boys simply have to be in the SOO squad.

Some nice grunters among that bevvy of beauties.

That's about the 32nd time that's happened and finally they get penalised. They dry hump you from marker.

Entertaining game. Defence is terrible for both sides... amazing how many times that has happened this year. But seeing the attack open up a bit is great.

Going to be one of those "what if" games for the Manly fans.

Or Storm... whoever loses will have a lot of what ifs.

Had Uate got up and scored, I bet they call that double movement.

 

[GongPanther]

Another try for Manly. Wonder if last week's clash with the Sharks is starting to take affect?

Yep. And it looks like Manly have the run of the game ATM.

 

[Unscrupulous]

'100% succession'. Thanks Danny.

Gasnier says that penalty was harsh? He tried to play it before his feet were on the ground...

But it is such an inconsistent area for referees. Vunivalu got 2 last week that were way more his fault, than the one they didn't get earlier this game.

Worst effort of the game goes to Fox Sports, zero shots of Bellamy that entire second half.

Should be a separate Bellamy cam on another channel.

 

[The_Shield]

Decent game that. Storm started strong, Manly came roaring back into it and Storm just good enough to hold on

 

[wibble]

If you'd told me before the game that the Storm would score six tries in the first half, and lose the game by 4, I'd have found both highly unlikely. But there it is.

Both teams showed a mix of good attack and poor defense, but the Storm got there on the back of their opening blitz. I think the Storm were a bit tired from last week (the "Sharks" effect) but they manage to find ways to keep winning.

 

[veggiepatch1959]

This is going to be a flogging.

A four point flogging. WOW!!

Second half Manly 12 Storm 0.

I didn't watch the game but did Manly miss a few conversions?

 

[innsaneink]

Klein tried his hardest to get Manly home...two wrong decisions led to two manly tries
terrible ref
