LIVE GAME Round 17v Manly

[Tucker]

It makes you wonder if he can't do it then no one can. I honestly don't know how to describe my disappointment. Every year teams get off the bottom and perform better except us. We are anchored to the bottom by bad planning bad recruitment bad management. Every bastard under the sun wants to milk us . Richo being the latest with his son . And apart from that we have pissed off every betting agency and ref in Australia to lose every 50 /50

And don't get me started on our bad luck.bula two games in a row and inch away from winning it but tackled just short.

Damn who broke a mirror . Who ran over a black cat?

Lol I'm gonna lose it

We sold our soul for a taste in 05.
You pay a heavy price for doing that.

 

[cone]

What’s the chances Luai plays 4 more years here 🤣🤣🤣
There a reason he won’t get rid of those clauses.

Pretty low and smart business by him because he would easily get that sort of money at somewhere like Parra

It's honestly the only explanation. We truly did sell our soul for 05

I think its worse than the dumb shit he does .I believe he is one of the main causes of our clunky attack .He keeps trying for that elusive SOLO run where he beats the defence and scores .It never happens and he's supposed to be a link in the chain but he's a broken link and when he's finished with his unsuccessful play the rest of the play is totally stifled
Others contribute to this but he is the definition of the famous saying
" if you are not part of the solution then you are the problem "
Benji backing him so much makes me question Benjis judgement
Our Spine must be ( when all are fit )
Bula - Luai - Latu - Api
But next week
Turuva - Douehi - Latu - TDS
HEATH MASON back to NSW CUP !

Lol he has more first grade experience than Luallii mate so Benji won't drop him

 

[Tim Sheens]

Yeah, they no longer ruin my week. The loss is left behind about 15 mins after the game. I'm of to watch the British and Irish lions tmrw and the freo dockers on Sunday.
I'll probably enjoy those games more. Good chance I'm bears fan on a couple of years

Perspective, yeah, though I must say that this past week was definitely somewhat ruined by my love of the tigers, and probably the most dejected footy wise that I can remember being since WT exited the 2011 finals.

Tallyn has to beat that hip drop charge.
He landed fair on old mates legs.

 

[Garrry]

How funny was the penalty in the 2nd half to manly when doueihi was marker and he taps the dummy half's arm while he passes the ball, anyone else does it it's fine but not the tiger's

I wish I had the same constitution as you and Tucker. I tried to bail when Artie went to the rooters but could not support them. Black and Gold never fold. We have now been ( as the Don said) obliterated.

 

[Camel2281]

Hah!
It didnt look accidental to me 🤣....i just wish Sutton was standing on the edge of a cliff right then

Theres been a few prececedents this year...Dylan Brown 1 week contrary conduct grade 2

Same Hughes on kasey badger last year CC gd 1 = $3000 fine

Id say Mason will be grd 2 at least...was a decent shove

Mason should be in Flegg anyway

 

[orange&black]

That was honestly a horrible game of footy. Manly were shocking and we were worse.
I can understand why we were disjointed without Luai, and Bula then HIAs during the game. Reshuffling the team around for 80 mins. However no excuses for the lack of aggressive running from most of our pack. From the outset we couldn’t make 30 metres in a set with the ball in hand.
Some of the errors we made were just under 9s stuff and the one out running to a kick each set was abysmal. I hated watching that and the way our depth looks for the rest of this season we are in big trouble.

 

[over it]

Margin of 51-60 for roosters next week sounds fair.disappointed iv bought tickets, paid for accommodation and going to travel 3hrs to watch us get flogged.

 

[Flippedy]

Nah they'll demolish us. I can see Benji getting the sack, Luai enacting his clause and pulling a Paps/Tedesco with Api and TDS. That'd have to be the funniest shit ever

And to top the year off, the Bulldogs absolutely pummel us 60-0 in round 22 with Galvin putting on a master class, ensuring our 4th consecutive spoon. This is our destiny, you just know it. If you don’t laugh, you’ll cry.

 

[weststigerman]

Gus needs to leave the dogs, his project there is complete (he left Penrith prior to them winning the comp) and come to save us

Why do people think we can afford him even if he was an option?

We don’t have the cash to match the top clubs. We’re also perennial losers so why would anyone good at their job go to a place for less money at a club that’s just happy to participate?

Apparently he lost one eye, if he loses the other we are a chance

Yeah he will destroy us

Sorry Overs. You might enjoy the ride there but it might feel like a 6 hour drive back

Saw something about that thought it was just the usual FB BS

 

[TV Ted Ellery]

What is disappointing is our last few performances Raiders, Panthers, Souths and second half against Cowboys were good. I can cop losing but that was a train wreck. We had no chance.

I was expecting a loss buy not a bashing from Manly's forwards. Without Olakauatu, their pack was borderline KOE standard yet they dominated us. Nobody could make any yardage even the normally reliable Turuva. We looked flat and disorganised which is squarely on the coach.

 

[Spacecub]

The only coach that will make any sort of meaningful change would be Ivan, Bellamy or Bennett.

Neither would come here

Opposing teams are compressing their defence as they know we don’t have the capability or speed to get around them.
Aside from the clunkiness within our halves, we have much slower than average edge back rowers, much slower than average centres and much slower than average wingers.
You can probably afford it in one of the 3 categories, certainly not in all 3.
