Game Day - Rnd 7 vs Moanly

[Parramatta1947]

How many times have they called held, only for Manly to drive us back further in the tackle? :crazy:

Plenty - if we did that, penalty against us

We look terrible at times, even tired. Bit worried now

 

[Eelementary]

I think Wicks should have started tbh.

 

[hineyrulz]

Worst we have played all year, and the score is even. We really should win from here.

 

[Joshuatheeel]

Defence is good!!

The problem is our kicking game has been poor, so manly have been starting their sets around the 30 m line, thus they are finishing their sets with an attacking kick. And we are starting our sets 10 out.

 

[hineyrulz]

Can someone tell me why Jennings didn't get a penalty when he was smashed in the face when he tried to score????

Because we aren't Manly.

Our line speed has been rubbish tonight, scrambling has been good but Manly have gone up the field easily all night.

We need to lift.

The ball also went forward off the Manly players hand, very surprising decision

 

[Parra Pride]

Holy f**k Gordon "He does get him in the face, but you're allowed to strike at the ball while they are scoring." Head high tackles are all fine in the act of scoring then, someone tell Ma'u to rip Lyon's head off if he even looks at the try line again, wont be a penalty.

 

[Casper The Ghost]

Jennings no try looked a try too. Ball knocked out by Tom Symonds, bounces off the ground and then up and off Jenkos arm going backwards and Jenko forces the ball down for a try. What the f..... was going on there?

 

[strider]

Quietly confident

Apparently it's ok to hit someone in the face when you're attempting to slap the ball out.

 

[parra-matters]

Manly have been tough, we have done well to be level, and unlucky not to be 6 in front really.

 

[Eelogical]

8 all is a fair indication of the game so far. We have chanced our arm more and they have won the middle. I'm over pumped now.

 

[Eelementary]

Honestly, I thought, at first, that Jennings' no try was a no try - but after watching the replay several times, I've changed my mind.

Also, how can they say that Semi running behind Norman "impeded the defence", when four Manly players were around Semi and still unable to stop the offload?

I know by the letter of the law that it's a penalty - but how was Manly impeded, when four blokes could have tackled Semi had they been good enough?

 

[I'm a loser baby...]

DCE might be better than Foran but I'm glad BA didn't try to get him. Such a smug prick.

 

[^b0ss^]

what is gould on ...say manly had the short turn around ...slap that bloke someone.

 

[hineyrulz]

Time for the forwards to lift.

 

[Kornstar]

Bad start

 

[Twizzle]

Tep out for the night
