Last night, Got 5 x tix vs Manly at Commbank

Was supposed to get them few weeks back, but held off. Promo on now with 20% off

Ends 9pm tonight

Havent seen that for the new stadium, one would think tix are not flying out the door..

 

[Gronk]

Got anything to back it up with besides I don’t agree?? And I’m still laughing at incredible upside.

Not when I can see you’re in a mood.

 

[Gronk]

Just for clarification purposes: this is ok to say about other posters?
As in, it doesn't qualify as a personal attack?

(I don't think it does, just want to make sure I'm keeping the rules before using the phrase. If it is not OK to use use, please let me know, otherwise it is all good)

Gee you’re in a mood too.

Moretti's defensive miss percentage is a worry, but at least it was from the bench when we already had a lead and winning the ruck. He'll be told to do better next week, for sure.

Pssst, in case you didn't actually watch the game, Moretti actually started and played the first 20 mins despite wearing jumper 15 last night.

Gee you’re in a mood too.

You tend to bring it out in people.

 

[oldmancraigy]

Gee you’re in a mood too.

Rocks in your head.

You honestly think Hopgood has been good this season?? He’s been utter garbage, why do think Moretti has been promoted?? Poor form??

slobbering on something indeed.

Sorry for some reason I thought you were discussing Kautoga. Yeah Hopgood has regressed. He tries but he just gets wrapped up these days and he’s struggling to develop anything beyond the offload.

 

[senior]

Did anyone complain about Kautoga this week?

Thought he played well this round without looking at stats

So, I was out last night in the city and only got to watch bits and pieces on a tv in a pub.
Therefore today, I read through this thread first and then watched the game in full.

Geez a lot of you are sad sacks.
Our performance was very good.
Yes, the Knights were bad, but we never let them into the game. Our defence was excellent.
There was seriously so much good to take out of this game. The win will build our confidence.
And, Penisini wasn't as bad as some are making out. I certainly didn't see him drop the ball 5 times. Sure, he has to improve some of his basic skills like passing, but he is a strong runner and defender and deserves to stay in the starting lineup.
This was a really good team performance.
Are we still a bit rusty? Yes, of course.
But we are also so much better at getting basics right, and we are starting to play with some intensity, skill and hunger. Our attack is more organised and our defence is far more committed, despite the occasional lapse.
This is a work in progress; however, I am excited about the early signs of improvement under Ryles.
Hang in there and enjoy each week.

I couldn't agree more.

While we were far from polished, we looked far more professional last night than we have in a while.

Ryles is doing well.
