So in between all the Manu bashing, what was the final score?

Manly 1, Manu 0

 

[LatK7]

Great game to broadcast live across the country.

 

[Skreepe]

There is no worse winger in the game than Manu Vatuvei.

Roosters have 2 just in the starting squad alone. :lol:

Praise the Lord for Manu Buttervia. Warriors stayed in the match the whole 80mins and picked up intensity at times.

Going to be hard to stop, need to settle on a safe winger if they are to stand a chance.

What a game, just a shame about the handling errors from the Warriors (mainly Manu) cause when they throw the ball around theyre on fire.

 

[KeepingTheFaith]

More improvement in the Warriors than Manly so that's a good sign. Warriors stayed in touch but inexperience and a lack of polish meant they never looked like pulling ahead.

Still think Manly will get better though as they had a hectic start to the season with the WCC.

Who are you including in this? Perrett? At least he can catch the ball. Same with Leilua. Leilua is only in the centres because SKD is injured.

Awesome game by far the most entertaining of the round.

How different the game would be if Manu could hold on to the ball and not give Manly so much possession....

Agreed, was a pretty good game, although Raiders-Storm was more exciting due to the lead changing hands twice and of course the lol@dugan

I just can't find it within myself to lol@vatuvei

So those of you in Auckland, I could see it was a georgious sunny day over there but was it hot?

 

[woodyk2]

What a cracker of a game. Wheres Skeepe? Feel bloody sorry for Manu.

 

[woodyk2]

Really looking forward to seeing Manly get thumped.

Nice call.:roll:

Dude it's never hot anywhere in New Zealand.

 

[skeepe]

Shame the final margin was determined by the try that Tony Archer scored for Manly at the end of the first half. Good game, Manly played the best that they can, the Warriors I feel have plenty of improvement in them.

 

[IanG]

Didn't think so. You guys are lucky. Mind you I was over there in winter and it wasn't bitterly freezing cold either.

Perrett:
133 games - 42 tries

Vatuvei:
132 games - 90 tries


.. Maybe Perrett should stop concentrating on catching the ball, and try scoring some. :lol:
