Haha...
10-7 penalty count to Manly.


The first 2 or 3 to the Cowboys killed the game early on with their class beong evident with the overwhelming weight of possession.

Manly's first penalty was 15m out from the Cowboys line, on the first tackle.....thats real helpful, after Cummins found piggyback penalties for the Cows previously and they punished us emphatically.

The result was pre - ordained from the start.

Manly were obviously trying to slow down the Cowboys to stop them getting a roll on, they were legitimate penalties.

I reckon we should have got the penalty for Lyons piss poor attempt at acting.....

 

[Ianc]

Manly fans should be happy with that performance considering the injuries they have. They should be very embarrassed by Lyon's dive, pitiful.

Poor @nd half by the boys. Poor discipline and no line speed.

 

[eagles4eva]

Well I was quite impressed with the spirit shown by the team tonight.

The ususal peanuts will say "Manly were shit" blah blah blah.

But show me any team closer to the Cows with 65% possesion first half.

Cows far too good. Far too clinical.

Vave and Blake are beasts for us. I think Tapau needs less minutes for more impact.

Oh well, onto next round.

This, to not throw in the towel and keep putting in was great to see...Good size in the forwards this year..

Cowboys are a class act, totally deserved win..

Feldt should be Australian winger not Fergo.

Anyone that thinks Feldt and Oates are less threatening than Fergo and Semi Radstrayan are kidding themselves

Morgan is the best player of all time to emerge from the centres in a Qld Cup team to kill it is 2 huge positions in an NRL team within 2 seasons. One of the best in the game at the moment.

Mind translating that into English?

Mind translating that into English?

In 2013 he played a lot of the season for the Mackay Cutters in the centres, he was struggling with the death of his best mate and lost a bit of direction. He then carved up in the NRL at fullback and five eighth in 2014 and 2015.

Morgan. Centre at Q Cup level. Ends up in 1st grade at fullback. Proves to be good at full back. Moves to 5/8th to accommodate for Coote. Becomes grand final winner at 5/8th. Morgan is good at football. Better than any other Q cup player to come through in to first grade from centre and put straight in to major positions (Full back and 5/8th).

Understand now?

 

[elyod138]

To be fair he had already played a lot of NRL at halfback before he played QLD Cup.

Semi is easily the best winger in the game right now.

 

[Tenacious Titans]

Semi is easily the best winger in the game right now.

i wouldn't go that far...

 

[tomdl]

Semi is easily the best winger in the game right now.

He is ordinary in defence and he has dicks for fingers. You Parra fans are delusional

This, he's not even close to the best winger. Ausrardra doesn't deserve a test spot. Not sure what Mal's thinking.

 

[beave]

Someone needed to drop Feldt on his ass.

If you're talking about the Vave slap incident/penalty, when you watch it closely, Matai does a ankle/leg twist down low in the tackle, hence why Feldt reacted like he did.

Luckily Coote had Vaves right arm pinned because if he unloaded on Feldt I reckon his chin would be been sent into the middle of ext week!!!
