Mate ur being ridiculous, his first fkn game, what about the other “seasoned professional s”. ? U keep going on about Sanders, very odd
I'm saying he is not ready and it showed in defence. They didn't even give him an opportunity to kick for a goal and instead we used a porno actor from the crowd that looked like Dylan Brown to try and kick it from the sideline.

So what did everyone think of Nrown tonight.

A bloke that bled for the club that BA froze out.

He made more of an impact then a 650k cat we have in the back-row has done in 18 months.
I think Brown was treated poorly but he wasn’t anything special tonight. 9 tackles and 5 runs for 43m.

I agree regarding the goal kicking

So why did manly look shit in the first half?
I don’t recall it being because our middles were playing all over their middles. And more importantly, it doesn’t matter in the scheme of things. They don’t give out competitions points for winning a half of football.
the point remains that our middles are supposed to be the platform our gamelan is built on. And it’s not working

Pou has been saying for weeks that our inside forwards and our leadership is the issue and has been getting slammed by everyone as being a troll. Yet, you just said the same thing is the issue.
Have you not been reading everyone’s posts? Heaps of people on here have been bagging our middle forwards and guys in the leadership group for the past 12 months. Lane, Lussick, Paulo, Matto and Gutho have been copping it deluxe.

You're better than that.

You know why he's labelled a troll - and it's not that.

They weren't shit we just played to our level.

How many errors did they make in the 1st half compared to us.

We just can't do it for 80 mins.
Yet with 14 mins to go we had scored more tries then then…,and we defeated the last time we played them..,

but hey they just play at our level…

How about both sides played ok when they have the advantage of possession. Generally who ever has the most possession wins….

I thought he played with the energy and skills that anyone in our pack is sorely lacking.

Saw Danika interview him post-match and Nathan said he just tries to make an impact for the team, and that he's got a 7 week old kid and life is good etc. I don't think he loses any sleep over BA and being pushed out of the Eels - more fool us.

So all those sets we made 50 plus metres was because our backs…..

while when we stopped them get to the 40 or so…was cause of our backs…

it happened a few times …
