LIVE GAME Round 24 v Manly

[getagrip]

Sione was a gun today , think he played the whole game , ran hard and his defence was good , little brother came on and filled in , and did a good job , he’s a gunn14

He played about 60 I think, but I thought he was great too. He has it all.

DCE made some very strange plays today. Almost seemed deliberate to hurt his team. Have we got a older Moses kicking stones and putting in zero effort to say FU Tigers and a DCE saying FU Manly. The club that gave him everything but not at the end. Its what i saw. Might be wrong but i've been around long enough to be able to read people.

 

[Rock Hopper Steve]

Clunky in attack is definitely our identity but if we keep defending well, it might even prove effective.

Thought Sione Fainu really showed the way today.

Yes, B the whole forward pack is improving all the time even Murray did OK just imagine what 1 or 2 quality additions over the off season could bring to the pack, get to work Richo.

I think he’s just done. Wants out yesterday.

They are growing up together. I hope they all really rip into their work in the off-season as it could mean a big 26’

Still love a real JFH maniac to lead them.

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

Sione was at the club well before his brothers.

 

[weststigers]

Manly are a consistent top 8 team.
They may have some issues but their 17 on paper was still very good.

We beat them !
And we beat them quite well.

Good for morale.

I'd agree with you but they have only made finals 3 times in like 12 years

Manly bar the first minute were very average , DCE was one of many manly players who were down today , Brooks was shit , we nails Hoopa and the 3 , Turbo pressure from us all game was average , our forwards aimed up and we’re better than manly , my issue we can’t get points in the red zone when we are multi sets in the 10 mtr , no sneaky plays , no set plays , didn’t even have Royce running from back when close , it was poor

Biggest one man team since Joey Johns days, if Turbo isn’t firing, Manly suck.

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

 

[InBenjiWeTrust]

Except for Pole, our props either walk or jog extremely slowly. How does catching the ball at full speed sound?

 

[Mighty_Tiger]

Great win by the boys.

Amazing what happens when you have two second rowers making metres and bending the line as opposed to having to carry a useless sack of shit masquerading as a rugby league player.

This should spell the end of Seyfarth in this team. We just saw what happens with two competent second rowers.

As for all those who have been making excuses and taking up for Seyfarth, give yourselves an uppercut.

Have said it for years that if Seyfarth is in our 17 as a regular we have issues. He just isn’t NRL level. Looking forward to KPP joining and having some back row depth for a change.

Think we are building a good squad to continue our step change up the ladder for next season.

Yep a rhino on rails is all that's missing we have enough workers.

Just bought mine

Got mine! Woohooo

 

[clontarfkid]

Watched it with some manly buddies..in my Tigers jersey o course.!
They think Siebol is hopeless... the Trevovic brothers are shot ducks...and DCE may not be trying too hard
All the above is true
Personally..theyve got so much o their cap in 7 or 8 players..most of which are injured or out of form.. they cant afford decent back up
Theyre a mess

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.

 

[clontarfkid]

Very clunky attack...still
So many wasted opportunities we cldnt convert
Just as well Manly was woeful in attack and defence plus we had a little luck

Lol it’s like that every week. I stopped looking at the live thread during matches long ago. Too emotional and often does not reflect our performances at all, but that’s what it’s like in the heat of the moment.

 

[Betterdays22]

Great signs that Tigers could turn it around after that first set. Tigers teams of the past would of totally lost their nerves.

Say what you want about Benji as a coach on the technical side of things but he has gone about adjusting the attitude of the team really well

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