Anyone see the game Tonite talk about a rort, every crappy decision favoured the Storm…

thought things went the Titans way in the first half and the storm were just too good in the second half and the Titans couldn’t go with them.

The head high tackle Penalty was a joke, so was the play ball that should have been a penalty to the Titans…

Nicho for whatever reason isn’t really playing a traditional 7 role tonight. Harry Grant keeps over playing his hand on the 5th for no result.

Still none the wiser on kicking or repeat set ability. Munster of course is calling the shots which is fine.

Small data set sure but not sure he is our 7

Agreed. I thought he was bog average

Agreed. I thought he was bog average

It was underwhelming.

I realise it’s ‘early days’, but he looked TENTATIVE.

This could be because:

1. Coach said let the more experienced hands take control
2. Senior players over called him
3. He was feeling his way

Anyway, too early to write him off at 7. He clearly knows how to put a player into space, which then creates space for himself.

I honestly believe that he following spine can work:

9. McInnes / Brailey
7. Trindall
6. Hynes
1. Kennedy

yeah the high tackle from Peachey was a joke. Papenhauyzen is a new protected species clearly

 

[R-15-3]

I thought he was good at doing his job last night. You can tell he wants to do a lot more and get a shit load more touches and control the team but was doing what he was told to do. He let Munster take control. Was putting himself in position to make plays but Grant was out to prove his point as starting 9 with Smith not playing and over calling and playing his hand to much. Full of season and his team can definitely be a genuine half.

The protected players you can't even look at them the wrong way and it's a penalty, what else do we expect from the NRL.

The difference was when Gold Coast got things there way first half they could only just lead, I can't remember storm hardly getting a 6 again, but Titans did.
If I was Titans fan, I would be irate with David Fifita he is a flat track bully, play a good team he goes missing doesn't look for work, and the missed tackle on Munster he just gave up

 

[Weaponhead]

Hynes was always going to play an understated role last night. We might have been looking for a dominant 7 performance but Bellamy wasn't. Munster was always going to be lead playmaker. Getting Papenhuyzen back in the groove was a key priority.

Hynes just has class in his work. The timing of his passes is excellent. He doesn't panic and is prepared to take a tackle if needed rather than create undue pressure for another player.

The most impressive thing for mine was that he looked for contact in defence. He had no issues defending in the front line.

With Tommy T out tonight we will find out if Manly contenders or pretenders ( one man team ) . Didn't show much against us when he was off . I'm picking the wheels will fall off tonight .

 

[glenmoresharkie]

Manly are PATHETIC without Tommy T. Dead set not even the same team.

 

[Craigshark]

Moses Suli please

 

[roboshark]

Watch us shit the bed

 

[Bob Scott]

Watch us shit the bed

I was thinking at H/T well we are out of it now so the guys will play great now the pressure is off , but now , we're a chance again and the pressure is back on , only positive i see is that Tig's are in the same boat and they are handle pressure worse than us .

Contenders.

 

[Cheese sandwich]

Great try from crichton then, if its katoa they'd rule a deliberate bat forward tho

Can’t watch this game anymore!
11-2 penalty count in favour of Panthers…

I cannot stand this ref.
The channel nine main commentator is an absolute fool!

 

[glenmoresharkie]

Just quietly Sorensen has been an absolute beast for Penrith this year. Dead set machine.

Yeah another case of a player thriving on a change of scenery and some better coaching. Was bog average here tbh. Good on him for getting a new 2 year extension too.
