Round 8 Anzac Day clash 2016 vs Manly Game Discussion

[K-Man]

Well that is simply disgusting. We are such a joke.

 

[Spot On]

How the f**k can the award that after disallowing Ross'?????

 

[perverse]

With tariq.

Oh yes, I forgot he was playing.

 

[Alex28]

Lawrence has as much control of the ball as Ross did in the first disallowed try.

Great consistency...

 

[perverse]

That's a try, moreso than either of the ones we had denied.

 

[slotmachine]

Take off the red and blue glasses, Lawrence didn't bounce it like ross.

This is a game we should be winning comfortably.

 

[Jono078]

That's a real ball breaker right on half time, I thought it was quite clear that it was out and he had no downward pressure by the time the ball was on the ground.

Great effort, but I think 2nd half will be tough with the wind against us.

 

[Alex28]

We have butchered that half. We got 10 minutes against 12 players and seriously should have been up 4 tries to nil. Instead we are 4 points down.

 

[perverse]

Manly have been absolutely woeful. I don't know what that makes us. Wooden spooners, I guess.

 

[Spot On]

I reckon Aku earns more penalties off his runs than the rest of our team combined. It wouldn't even be close.

I reckon Aku let's more tries in that any other player in the comp. It wouldn't even be close.

I reckon Aku has more missed and had more ineffective tackles than another winger in the comp. It wouldn't even be close.

 

[the seagull]

both the same hand down side of ball -the bunker either incompetent or cheats - which one is nrl

 

[NoSchitSherlock]

We took no advantage from that breeze. They will.
We did make good running ground out of our own half as usual but were a bit flat at times.
If Mullen gets involved well score. Nobody out there can do what he does. Hodko needs to leave it to him

 

[K-Man]

Nuffy hit up into a wall with seconds until halftime. We let him score.

That half sucked, I don't care that we're only down by 4. We had the wind, we had a man up, we had chances, we had field position.

But we do nothing when we have the ball. We are so horribly pedestrian in attack. Gagai and halves offering literally no danger to the opposition whatsoever.

Honestly I think if you put the Cowboys or Broncos spine in our young inexperienced team they make the top 4. There's just enough effort in the forwards to work with, but we don't have any skill in our team to take advantage of any dominance or momentum that we gain.

 

[alexwilliams_66692007]

I am very worried about the 2nd half.

 

[perverse]

I reckon Aku let's more tries in that any other player in the comp. It wouldn't even be close.

I reckon about 3/4's of the tries he's accused of letting in, every winger in the NRL lets in every day of the week. Our entire right edge is stupid, it doesn't just start and end with the guy asked to shut down 2 or 3 players.

You see every try scored on our right edge as Uate's fault. It's just not true, it's not even close to true. He's not a good defender, but when shit is always breaking down inside him, as a bad defender he's not going to be able to shut it down. McManus wouldn't do much better against the spreads he's faced with most weeks coming at him.

 

[Whats Doing]

Great kick by mullen but no chasers? Where were you gagai? Thats your job right there

Yep we just don't do those 1 per centres which doesn't build pressure op the opposition

 

[slotmachine]

There were no chasers because Mullen was motioning left, but then kicked back across the field and no one knew it was coming.

 

[Frederick]

Manly have been absolutely woeful. I don't know what that makes us. Wooden spooners, I guess.

Derr. As if last week didn't make that blindingly obvious

 

[perverse]

There were no chasers because Mullen was motioning left, but then kicked back across the field and no one knew it was coming.

Yes, shocking communication.

I reckon Aku has more missed and had more ineffective tackles than another winger in the comp. It wouldn't even be close.

I reckon Aku is the worst player in the comp tbh. He just can't even get the basics of the game right.
