4(6) - 0 as opposed to 10-0 makes a huge difference and add in to that the other poor decisions it's worse, but being so impotent inside their 10 + making some pathetic errors is the reason why we haven't scored and are down 22-0.

As a Manly fan that was embarrassing watching Hayne look unsure calling a knock on for Nofo.. What an idiot - if unsure it isn't hard to go to the video..

When a game is reffed fairly manly fans squeal like stuck pigs.
They are so used to this sort of crap.

As a Manly fan, I agree we've certainly received the home ground advantage tonight. We've been on the end of the same thing plenty of times before ourselves. Tigers need to be good enough to combat it. Thats the difference between seasoned teams like Manly, Storm etc. Bitch as much as you want about the calls. But at then end of the day, your team will be on the received end of it at some stage. Just have to deal with it and play footy.

If Toovey has a pair he'll cut sick on the refs anyway. I would in his position. There are reasonably Manly fans in here that can see so he sure as shit can.

Nofoaluma was a try.
Richards didn't drop it.
Sue didn't drop it.
The first three penalties marched Manly right down the field every time and were for nothing (every other penalty Manly received was fair and when they were well up)
Sironen was tackled mid-air.

vs.

Moses dropped it cold and got a penalty, when we were down 16-0 (too late)
Gavet dropped it cold and got a penalty, when we were down 16-0 (too late)

In addition to the fact that the Tigers made 7 other errors and Manly only made 2 and the Tigers defense has been really quite bad.

Hayne and Potter are both to blame for this score. Manly are awesome but they didn't need the help. I'm happy to see Gavet and Taupau back together, they definitely fire each other up.

Faaaaarrrk it had to be Noafuluma. Need a big score from him tonight

This is true. If the Tigers had have completed better they'd be in this game. That simple. They dropped the ball so many times when they were getting the momentum. That's the worst part. The timing of the errors just shifts all the momentum back to Manly. Up the middle we've made huge inroads. Plenty of tackle breaks from Sue, Taupau, Gavet, Woods and Galloway.

Tigers are a young team and psychologically their minds were ruined after these shit ref calls. The snowball effect with 12 point turn around is just too much. Hopefully we can get a fresh start and make the scoreline more respectable

That's the worst part. He clearly didn't know, so go to the video ref. I have no idea why he didn't just do it.
