2017 NYC Grand Final: Parra Eels V. Manly

[Bazal]

Are you Luke Burt? You show a really good choker attitude! Lol

I wish I was. Would mean I'd achieved a lot more than A grade footy and serious knee injuries in my footy career

 

[WaznTheGreat]

It also doesn't make sense. Got a side to the top four missing, what, four or five key players who were up in NSW Cup? Won through to the Grand Final, but lose the last one and it's a choke because of Luke Burt

Disregard the rest of the year because it doesn't fit the narrative. Classic Eels fans

Shut up,they choked against the team that finished 8th,no excuses

 

[Poupou Escobar]

So, Greg Louganis good enough for first grade?

Not yet

 

[WaznTheGreat]

Manly were easily the best side of the finals, not sure how much of the finals you watched but I would suggest it was just the Eels game hoping they would lose at some point.

Talk about sad.

lol no they weren't

 

[amitropo]

Concerning that our club continually seem to lose the un losable

He's a loser man, get over it. If he won anything in his career I'd call him a winner. Now his team is doing the same thing. As they say winning starts at the top and his team just choked. Hopefully these juniors are affected by this epic failure

Cayless and Burt coach our juniors, the legacy will continue

Cant remember seeing either them in the trenches at Carramar or Creatwood on a cold Saturday night, looking for talent or honing their trade. Sick of guys wanting to coach without really doing the hard yards, working their way through the ranks. Burt may go on to become a good coach, but today his team had a meltdown.

Anyone who has followed junior league for years must be quite alarmed when a team like manly can win.

 

[strider]

Luke burt of course has done his coaching apprenticeship not, some really poor coaching in my opinion, should have romped that in.

Care to elaborate? ... or just content throwing shit around?

Not a f**king chance

I was pretty unimpressed with dane auckafolou too ... fell off so many tackles

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Shut up,they choked against the team that finished 8th,no excuses

To be fair, four teams choked against the team that finished eighth. Looks like we all took them lightly. We showed our dominance in the first 15 minutes and a bit later in the first half I noticed this:

Our intensity is down.

And we never got it back. We just rested on our laurels that we were better than them. But being better doesn't mean you'll win without effort. We clocked off with 50 minutes to go. Choke.

 

[84 Baby]

There's something seriously wrong with this club. The amount of chokes is amazing. Luke Burt is choker from way back and now he's passed on his shit too some good young juniors coming through. Mentally weak!

I think all true fans know where the rot starts. With shit fake fans like you

 

[Bazal]

I find it funny that people think you need to do some sort of coaching apprenticeship before coaching 20s.

Like do you start at under 8s? Do you get criticism for not "doing your apprenticeship" if you start at under 12s? What about A grade, like is there a set of people who are just filthy when a country player retires and goes straight into coaching? "f**ken Damo, hasn't done his apprenticeship mate, it's f**ken jobs for the boys that's what it is!"

 

[Bazal]

Not a f**king chance

I noticed this in NSW Cup as well, his defence was really poor at times.

Might be a shot on the wing though, if we want a big body to replace Semi seeing as GL looks unlikely to be up to speed just yet

 

[84 Baby]

So, Greg Louganis good enough for first grade?

See here

If Leleisiuao had run his last try in instead of jogging we would've taken the kick from closer to the posts. We could be choking in golden point right now.

Physically he was ready this year. Mentally BA needs to sort him out

 

[Gazzamatta]

Momentum is massive in any footy but in the U20s its the whole game.
The reffeering was appalling as was our ball control thus handing momentum to the weaker side.
Our second half was identical to our NRL side. Fitness? Inexperience?
Whatever it has to change.
Tonise, Stone and Brown were amazing.
Greg Wow is defensively inept. Needs a lot of work.

 

[hineyrulz]

notice how bald Luke Burt is

no hair = no hope

Yep, we never had a chance.

 

[I'm a loser baby...]

There's always next year

I actually thought Brown took a couple of really poor options...BUT at his age you can't blame the kid, he's definitely got a lot of class about him

Now your Donald Trump #fakenews. Who are ya Burty or Trumpy??

 

[Noise]
