3-2-1 vs Panthers

[TheDMC]

Manu
Konny
Princess - for his goal kicking tonight. Gave us breathing room when we needed it

x2


Anyone notice Neilsen in the first 5 mins have an unmarked Manu outside of him, easy pass and plenty of time...and he took a lame hit up. He refuses to play footy.

 

[Big Marn]

3 Manu
2 Henry - Coach said in the aftermatch interview that he wasnt travelling well but soldiered on as Bukuya had come off for concusssion and Friend had come off as well.
1 Johnson - goalkicking wins games and applies pressure during the game. Sideline conversions ftw.

Yea, didn't think he had a bad game apart from that.

Yes. And I was screamin' at the tele...(even though it was on a half hour delay and it was a tele, so he was never going to hear me) about him never, ever passing the freakin ball to Manu!

Same rubbish, same player

2. Tomkins ( we have had lots of players go up and down in form....have horrors.....most don't have the class and experience to turn around a horror run in a must win game when they're out of form ).

Tomkins wasn't really having a horror run a la Nielson, it was a mixed bag.
Nice to see the stupid errors go away, good solid game.

 

[Manu Vatuvei]

So...you're all telling me it's *still* not time to give up on Manu and/or move him into the forwards?

:shock:

3 Johnson

1 Lillyman

Chad has been great this year, looking like Maloney MKII without the grubbiness. I was a skeptic but he's impressed me very much. Will be hard for tommy to come back in now I think

He will be tried at hooker. Bet you a hat-eating session he is back the top team asap

 

[Rich102]

Any word on when he will be fit?

 

[JJ]

will be very interesting to see how he's used.

McFadden doesn't need to rush him in, and anyway I like what Townsend is doing, and TL offers a different style.

I guess McFadden will have a view, but I don't see him dislodging Townsend or Friend at the moment, nor Henry from the bench

An indication of how well the team's going, I guess... anyway, like what I am seeing

 

[hitman82]

Any word on when he will be fit?

Possibly within a couple of weeks

[RHYTHM AND STEALTH]

well deserved

 

[Wheeled Warrior]

Awesome

Manu is heating up! Overdue for a huge season!!

 

[reykaine]

whats the status on Matulino?
Should be fit for Eels?

 

[RHYTHM AND STEALTH]

yip he will be there

 

[Fufu Andronez]

He will be tried at hooker. Bet you a hat-eating session he is back the top team asap

Yeah my bad should have been clearer.. Meant that it would be hard to come in and take Chads spot.

Like the idea of a hat-eating session though, let's re visit that

By Tomkins own high standards that has been a horror run.

It's certainly been the worst year of his entire career and stupid mistakes has never been part of that career so yeah horror run.

 

[JJ]

He was good, but I think he got points because of the absence of the mistakes more than anything. I still hate the in the line defending, something's wrong there on the Moylan try.

I thought The Chad and The Seb were pretty good - probably for them their best performances

Sounds strange as a Warriors fan to be saying things are looking good... they are, but I still think we're a tick below the best - who are Manly, Souths, Roosters...

Agreed we are not up to the standards of Manly and Roosters

Rabbitohs? Really? I think we are above them as of the last 2 weeks very unlucky to lose to them the other week

Manly are the side to beat despite the Roosters being the defending champions

Always will be in my books
