'12 | 1st PF | Fri | Storm 40-12 Sea Eagles | AAMI

[Walt Flanigan]

Probably wouldn't have scored it if King wasn't too busy grubbing around with Proctor.

 

[Canard]

I haven't seen a side dog it like this since Matt Orford last played.

 

[no name]

They're not just letting Smith get away with forward passes, Cronk is now given a free pass.

 

[hunters]

nice try. ball from cronk to slater was questionable but nice otherwise

 

[I Bleed Maroon]

The lack of Manly fans commenting in this thread is just orgasmic. Karma is f**king you in the arse with a Pineapple.

 

[user_nat]

Cameron Smith bringing the lols.

Who is next in line for kicking duties?

 

[Grapple]

Could've been 18 nil.... poor CAM

 

[Frank_Grimes]

Melbourne using quite possibly the oldest trick in their book and Manly still falling for it.

6 point turnaround with Smith's shoddy kicking though. Could come back to haunt them.

 

[Raiders_Premiers]

Yeah, I don't Storm are going to lose it this year

 

[Mr Angry]

hmmmmm......

set for a fall, who needs a boat.

 

[skeepe]

Manly's wrestling is a blight on the game.

You know, I was just thinking the same thing. They really overtaken Melbourne in that department. I think they're focusing on winning the wrestle too much and it's detracting from the rest of their game.

 

[BigRedV]

Manly's is a blight on the game.

Fixed

 

[snogard6]

This is the worst final series I can remember... Hopefully tomorrow can save what has been a mediocre 3 weeks

 

[Spanner in the works]

Melbourne are a joy to watch. Hope they win the comp.

+1 here.

 

[gypsy]

Archer trying to keep it close.

 

[HowHigh]

Lets see who can drop the ball for Manly this time

 

[Ron Swanson]

Why is it Manly are allowed to grapple, yet when any other team holds down slightly too long it's a penalty?

 

[Spanner in the works]

Cameron Smith bringing the lols.

Who is next in line for kicking duties?

Widdop probably.

 

[t-ba]

Should be about 30-0 at the moment...Sigh...

 

[some11]

Great tackle.
