LIVE GAME Round 24 v Manly

[Halbrowne61]

Douehi !!!!!

I’ve stuck solid with him coz I knew he had something !

 

[Halbrowne61]

OMG! Trying to sort my tickets now!

We may finally get an indication of what is now actually a full house at LO.

 

[Odessa]

Could it be that by chasing Latu, we got two much, much better players, his brothers, cheap?🤔

Sione was here first I think by 2 years at least but I think did has ACL in preseason and then have a foot problem I believe

So this year is like his first

I strongly suspect Marshall values Seyfarth highly with what he brings to the squad/team and at a pretty reasonable cost.

His cost is exactly right though and we need to have squad depth. I have zero issues if he is a depth player fighting for a spot but he isn’t a week to week nrl level player right now.

Maybe putting him back as a prop with a full off season to focus on that changes things, I don’t see it. He is a reggies maybe 5-8 games player.

Just watched the full replay.

One observation that worries me is that Api looked exhausted, even from the 1st minute. Yeah its a long season etc etc. But his play the ball looks distinctly slower and just his play in general is less...."efficient"?

Not sure how hes going to do this sort of 80 minute play for another 2 years. He needs to be managed better.

Suspect all you want. You also repeatedly regurgitated “trust in Sheens” like a religious fanatic then ran when it epically backfired.

The bigger concern with Api is we have no back up if he goes down.

 

[Halbrowne61]

Hope everyone watching Cowboys as prep for next Sunday.
Newcastle are so average it’s not funny

So we sell our primary back up ?
I don’t get it.

TDS is killing it too - great call!!

 

[Halbrowne61]

So was it just me or was Bula not really motivated today ? Looked somewhat lethargic imo.

I think we win and 3 in a row on maybe the 17 attempt

Hay buy who's counting

 

[weststigers]

Again I’ve logged on and read quite a few emotional and crazy comments on this live game thread (close to half time) before I actually watched the game. Watching the replay of the game for a bit now and the Tigers are nowhere near as bad as some posters suggest.

Actually some people on the live game thread have no idea or just expect a perfect game each week.

I was literally just saying the same thing to a mate. Some people need to put down their typewriter. We dominated that whole game....2nd week in a row

 

[BalmainBoy67]

Vossy saying Manly has a good team on paper but I disagree

They’re team ever on paper is dogshit

Maybe on toilet paper..... 💩

 

[clontarfkid]

We dont sell it..we give it away!
Still bewildered
Mind u,,,he hasnt exactly set the world on fire at Eels

Coz he’s a Tiger !

 

[Leck]

Didn't see much of the first half, but the second 40 was pretty average to be honest. Bludger of a half if I'm totally honest.

Meh, you were watching a different game.

Our defense was exceptional, especially in the second half. When you keep your opposition below 16 points to win, it equals 2 points.

We did that.

 

[stephen]

Controversial call, but I think Sione is playing better than all of them and more consistently

Hard to disagree with that. Sione's improvement has been a highlight of our season. Sammy starting to get back into form and looked much better today.

A Magpie actually - like his shit mate Galvo!

 

[bigsiro]

Was a pleasure being there today.
That first try for Manly caught us off guard, and perhaps it was the best thing for us.
Because the cover defence from then on was immaculate.

A few worries:
1. Not being able to catch a torpedo
2. Not taking the two points when we were 6 pts up and another time when we were 18 up.
It’s moments like that, being able to settle and ice a game which we seem not to do.

But, we did control the game and it was extra hilarious seeing brooks and talau in their prime form.
