Api is busting his arse today. Very sad to see the decline of Ipap this year.

To’a did all the work
Brooks passed it to To’a who was heavily marked .
Are you sure you’re Tim Sheens ?

If Ron Jeremy was a Colombian trader.
Brooks let the 2nd try in. Rushed in for no reason. Dumb.
Manly are playing a side that is 0-6. No team would be fired up against us. They would be 3rd gear

Hey mate - that is the second game in a row where Brooksy throws a beautiful pass to set up the try right ?
He has done it on both sides now as well. Not bad hey.

Parking the halves issues, impressive half by the boys overall. We have been the more dominant side so far. Could’ve been easy to pack it up going 12 down but the boys didn’t, they are really putting in.
If we can limit the penalties & missed tackles based on 2nd halves we might be in with a chance.

2 point field goal wasn’t possible cos we were too close to the posts. Should have put up a spiral bomb or something though.
He likes his chances on Harper
Every time Harper gets the ball, Brooks is on him.
Think the halves have been somewhat quiet.
Hopefully they get more ball in the second half.
I agree. We are not far away. As Gus said, there’s a good side in there somewhere. You can see the green shoots. I just hope we have the right coaching set up to develop it.
He let the 2nf try in?
Both him and Wakeham do not draw the defence through direct running. Not good enough.

To’a played his part, Staines did all the work.
Get you hate Brooks but his cut out ball onto To’a chest created the space.

Stefano running down Tom T would have been a massive highlight if Turbo hadn’t passed the ball.
Agree. They either need to pass early or dig into the line and pass late. They are doing the worst thing at present, wasting some time with the ball before passing without committing a defender.

And again 2nd try to Manly.
Mark a try assist to Brooks.
He decided to go tackle Dale Cherry when he was already covered,
And left a big gap for the try scorer to run straight through for the easiest try.

That was a nice set move. Everyone did their job. Even Bula played a part in leaving the ball.
That's the issue. Will the coaches bite the bullet and change or will they get stubborn and try and back their choice? Brooks is better than Wakeham but Brooks is a bottom 4 half. So until we get two halves who play direct we will not threaten the line.
It's not that hard is it? Play direct, draw then pass. Surely the coaches can teach this?

But he didn’t set it up
To’a did
How about Brooks’s defence Olakau’atu lol
And him not stepping up to take goal kicking duties
What are we paying him 1.1M for again ?
One pass a game ??
