Game Day versus the Beagles

[Generalzod]

I just do not get that attitude.

Some teams would kill to be where we are.

I would rather die on my feet than live on my knees.

Agree with this…. Extend our streak to 7 years straight in the semis…. Sure we’ll be cannon fodder but the experience in the semis is invaluable for a young side.

Chambers. What are we doing here? Was done as a player a few years ago, he obviously thinks he still has it or he couldn't be running his mouth. The highlight of the game was him getting hooked.

He’s looked like an old man at a strip club since we signed him. That was just embarrassing tonight.

Id cop the trash talk if he belongs out there. He doesn't anymore.

The bloke just had a new addition added to his family consider that he had to go to Melbourne, isolate himself go to Quuensland, cant blame him for the loss.

Respect the sacrifices he’s made over the last few weeks but he goosed himself by mouthing off when we were getting thrashed imo.

Can someone tell me - when Talakai whacked that guy late in the game and Manly lost the ball - why did Manly get the ball back?

I’ll give him that he probably had a bit of built up energy and was keen to get out there . If Moylan is back next week then Tracey back to centre

from memory we picked it up, got tackled and threw a forward pass from dummy half.

Chambers gets hooked for sledging trying to spark the team.
Woods and Tolman stroll around field and Hannay thinks that's ok

Chambers was on a suicide mission. If the shit hits the fan not many of the forwards are going to back him up. Deadset, it would probably be left to Connor Tracey to come in as the enforcer.

 

[Bob Scott]

Chambers best days are long gone , game has moved past him , we need to find a center to replace him , Tracey's not the answer .

Yep, in any very good side Tracey is on the bench as backup / spark. An important role.

Agree with this. As much as he wants to be a half or fullback I don't believe he is either unfortunately. He is the perfect bench utility imo.

Other than Williams on 64 games we have 13 other young inexperienced player on 60 or less games , many under 40 , that have played this year , so when taken in context with our lack of a FG coach and poor captaincy and leadership , we're doing all right , a damn sight better than i expected , and then throw in the injuries we have had to carry all season , they carry on about the Roosters season , christ ours has been diabolical , which has meant we have never and i mean never had a consistent half pairing hence spine all season . There is a lot of upside in our young players , forwards like Reynolds , Talakai , Nikora , BHU , Hunt and Brailey are going to improve heaps when McInnes and Finucane get on board along with Fitz's coaching . Once the forwards get going well the backs will look even better , we have points across the park in our backline and once the defence is sorted , and rest assured it will be sorted , well i don't know too many teams that wouldn't like to be in our position .

Always a good day in Cronulla when the shonks get smashed

Did someone shit themselves? There’s a stench in here.

Good post Bob… the future is bright.

Yeah , i don't know , we're pretty sure he's not a half or a centre , a reasonable winger ,so i ask how much does he bring , often seems to get dominated in defence , doesn't run thru walls running it back , i know he tries hard but i'm just not convinced . The best description i can give is he seems like the poor man's Connor Watson , who seems to me to really brings some punch when gets on the park , i notice him . I'll trust Fitz to get more out of him , but if the rumours are true about our interest about CW then i think that is an upgrade .
