Sharks don't have a lot of points in them imo. Manly get to 20 and they win.

kick and it becomes a 50/50 lottery.

Pfft. Attacking kicks have always been part of our game. The point is to score points, not to score points only off the first 5 tackles and never from a kick.

Also, give Cronulla some credit for their scrambling defence.

We both know how the game works mate. No side goes out there trying to score off the kick, you only get to the kick because your first 5 tackles didn't work out how you wanted (if you start a set with good field position). You think Manly will be satisfied with relying on their kicks? All I'm saying is after being kept to 0 last week they've gone another 40 without scoring through the hands. There's no sign that they've overcome any perceived inability to crack the line.

What does it matter if they win? Roosters only try in the finals was off a kick as well. Manly have shown over the season that they can score tries in many ways.

 

[Manu Vatuvei]

That clearly went backwards

 

[johns_reds]

Lol knock any day of the week, not sure why blowing up

 

[Snappy]

lol Hayne laughing at Gallen

 

[Aragorn]

Manly get in and its over.

 

[tomdl]

As backwards as the Watmong try

 

[Manu Vatuvei]

If they're having trouble scoring tries it just might be a problem in future games?

 

[johns_reds]

Eww, did he just spew on the field

 

[Loudstrat]

Gallen whinging at the ref. Sharks in trouble.

 

[chrisD]

I wish we signed Rose instead of Kite.

 

[GongPanther]

Who has been using the flyspray?

 

[skeepe]

That's a knock on by Lyon isn't it? Put the ball down before the ref called time off.

 

[Card Shark]

Knock on Lyon

Put the ball down before time out

 

[johns_reds]

Hiku to centre next week if Stewart comes back
