Rd11: Parra v Manly GAME DAY THREAD at BankWest 23/5/21

[Jake the snake]

So bad

 

[I'm a loser baby...]

Well that was shit.

 

[Oscarman]

As soon as the Bozo news came out, we weren't winning. Totally against the narrative.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

We just have Bruts. No footballers with skill

At least we won't be too affected by Origin.

 

[Joshuatheeel]

Expecting sack BA / our side is shit posts to flow to night....and Manly will be talked up!!

But we lost the game as we didn’t build pressure.

the effort was great, we made metres, we were physically good

We gave manly hardly any field position.

but from my count we gave the ball away in the manly’s half approximately 12 times with stupid decisions.....you don’t win games doing that!!

we weren’t patient, Gutho and Moses never took charge, they played to frantic. They deserve a berating from BA...

this is a game we need to learn from, move on, focus on South’s, but learn from it!!

BTW this game was not like the dragons where were never in it, tonight we just played f**ken stupid.

Very disappointing but a good wake up call!!

 

[84 Baby]

Worst display of effort since that Souffs game at end of last season.
The Marata or Waqa question was answered without the need for suspension.
But on top of that Jrthur has a game to fix that side’s defence or Drown is no question straight back in. That right hand side was consistently on overlap and that can’t be lumped with Waqa.

 

[strider]

At least we won't be too affected by Origin.

A tactical shit performance to keep the team intact ... masterstroke

 

[Snoochies]

Ahhhhhh that feeling....

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Manly were just better in every facet of the match.

We were never really in the contest. Manly just wanted everything more.

There was a lot of the Dragons game in that performance.

On top of that our usual weaknesses were heavily exposed.

We're not remotely good enough to win every week, but this group of players probably has too many easily exposed weaknesses when things aren't going their way to be able to beat those top teams at the their best.

The Waqa Blake situation just gets more embarrassing the more time he spends on the field. The more he plays the worse we will become.

What percentage of games do you expect this squad to win?

As soon as the Bozo news came out, we weren't winning. Totally against the narrative.

Maybe we should hope our greats die game day from here till the end of season....

 

[Joshuatheeel]

The worse part about this game is BA will just continue to pick the same side every week.
The time is now for changes and it starts with this.

1. W.Smith
2. Sivo
3 Opacic
4. D.Brown
5. Blake
6. Gutherson
7. Moses

All of a sudden we have speed in the side and our defense fixed. Ferguson is just so cooked it is ridiculous he keeps being picked.

Gee Hasler has done well with a no name forward pack. He is a great coach.

As expected!!

and how does that change players making stupid decisions or Moses / Gutho not building pressure...

 

[Eelogical]

Haha. Blake just missed 3 tackles on the 1 play.

Only 3? How lucky are we?

 

[Chipmunk]

I wanted to watch Moses when we had to chase 10 points. And with 40mins to go he choked and panicked big time. Honestly he just isn't a big game player.

You get that from the downhill skiers.

 

[Noise]

Has anyone ever been more excited by a judiciary decision against an eels player? f**k off Waqa.

 

[Eelogical]

Bozo picked the right day to die.

They made clowns out of us.

 

[hineyrulz]

Absolute pretenders, as soon as another side stick it to us we go back to our bad habits.

Side to side shit attack, pushing passes and just plain panicking.


Wanker Blake he went full Carige, anyone who thinks he is a better option than Marata need to stop sniffing glue. People will say it's a good wake up call, i just say it's more of the same when it really matters. Our attention to detail when it matter's is still really poor and after 8 years you would hope the coach has it all sorted. Sadly he hasn't got us close.

 

[DaveMc]

Waqa deadset cannot be picked next week. He is just diabolical. Hoping that the judiciary makes an example of him and gives him a 2 1/2 year suspension for that high tackle.

 

[Tooooks]

Wasn’t Waqa’s fault that we lost, but in three games he’s missed 15 tackles.

Marata has played 8 games at centre and missed 9.

And he offers nothing more in attack than Marata does. Surely it’s a no brainer.

Worst display of effort since that Souffs game at end of last season.

Drown will be straight back in. Barthur said so.

 

[Noise]

I

What percentage of games do you expect this squad to win?

If Waqa Blake plays about 30%
