Match Discussion: Round 13 vs Manly @ McDonald Jones Stadium, New Lambton / Awabakal

That seems like a really dumb way to burn your captains challenge. Best surely knew he touched it.

Unfortunately that's just half of it. The other half Ponga seems to get his head into trouble with his defending that knee shot could have easily KO'd him.

He does yeah, but he cops so many more high shots than anyone else in the comp - and it's not just his elusiveness. I think some blokes get instructions to "test" him out a bit. Let's face it, if Kalyn is in the team and he goes off the field for a while, you're a good shot of beating us handily.

Wtf was that?

 

[Jono078]

Tyson Gamble in nutshell there. Something half decent followed by something dumb.

 

[perverse]

At least Kalyn hasn't been knocked out cold by those 2 head shots early. The one on the knee looked like it should have put him out if a knock was going to.

 

[Tom155]

Please don't tell me he actually said that

Maybe i didn't get word for word exactly right but pretty damn close

 

[alexwilliams_66692007]

Lol. Wow.

 

[Tom155]

Has a short ball ever worked for us? Maybe 5% of the time?

 

[Haffa]

That was coming. These guys have nothing in attack.

 

[perverse]

Schuster is going to be quite a player if he can get motivated and get fit.

 

[Jono078]

Terrible by Ponga.

SOS Lachy Miller haha.

 

[alexwilliams_66692007]

Schuster is going to be quite a player if he can get motivated and get fit.

Or if he can play us every week lol

 

[perverse]

Or if he can play us every week lol

Yeah I mean Shaun Lane would be an immortal if he could play us every week, so that's not saying much.

 

[Tom155]

Agreed seems like a big if right now though

 

[alexwilliams_66692007]

This team literally has about one brain between them

 

[Tom155]

Wtf are you doing?

Error on error, surely soon followed by another Manly try

 

[Haffa]

Nice play from our captain.

 

[Jono078]

See that was a dumb drop out because it's an easy gimme to the Sea Eagles to get 2-scores ahead. f**king stupid.

Didn't I predict Schuster to have a Johns-like game... Proving me right big time so far.

 

[Zoidberg]

Do we actually practice short drop outs? Because we absolutely suck at them.

Agreed seems like a big if right now though

He's just got that look of class about him. Footy instincts for days. One of those guys that just sees the game a bit differently and things move slower for them.
