2019 R11 Fri - Sea Eagles 18-36 Titans @ Lottoland

[Smack]

try

 

[t-ba]

Scoreline about right for this half.

 

[HowHigh]

This has been the worst 3 halves of footy to start a round I can remember for quite a while

 

[lockyno1]

Lol Taylor

 

[BadnMean]

Why they need a so called utility in the first place...

Trying to find the next Craig Wing...

Chance of an injury or HIA in origin is reasonably high for such a high stakes game. Attacking option vs tired defences seems legit strategy or at least Wighton can cover back row to all backline positions with legit crunching defence & good attack.

 

[Mr Spock!]

Roberts doing everything while million dollar Taylor does a stupid play/kick on the fifth.

 

[CliffyIsGod]

Kicking game hasn't been great

You are correct

 

[lockyno1]

Depends on the makeup of the team but you need someone that can cover injuries. Sometimes it's easy enough just to swap some players around.

Surely a bloke like Wade Graham was enough last year at least.

 

[Life's Good]

Good. Manly suck ar*e again. I was beginning to like them & was feeling dirty about it.

Wade didn't play last year. And he was bad when he did play.

No Cherry-Evans and Turbo is a little rough

 

[t-ba]

This is the worst half Manly has played in a while.

 

[Someguy]

Manly pretty disappointing tonite, forwards should be running all over the titans

Arrh that’s right but my point is surely a forward who can cover a bit in the halves is plenty.

 

[aqua_duck]

The thing with Taylor is he doesn't even look like he cares nor does he want to be out there. You get guys like Cleary, Hunt, Pearce, Townsend, etc who might go through spells where things aren't working but you can at least tell their competing and trying, Ash Taylor has been taking notes from the Darius Boyd school of dogging it, his body language is horrible, 90% of the time he doesn't want anything to do with the ball and when he gets it he meekly surrenders, I don't think I've ever seen a worse display from a supposed first grade halfback

When they are given the opportunity to they are but the halves are being dire. Elgey is doggers and and Cust has been kicking ordinarily.

 

[typicalfan]

Manly playing down to the Titans a bit. Des should sort it out.

 

[t-ba]

I think in horror of the idea of Cleary keeping his Origin spot but then Kevvie opens his mouth and I can sleep easy again.

Wade Graham should never go near a f**king Blues jumper ever again

 

[Hutty1986]

I genuinely hope Brimson's nickname is 'Fire'
