LIVE GAME vs Manly *Spoilers*

Live Game Discussion
Big turn around point in the game. Just saw where the Kepoa try was disallowed and Ben T scored in the next set for Manly. Seyfarth was in clean air and no Manly player was impeded. I know the shoulder blah blah, but to me it was just a well executed try. Manly were not disadvantaged in any way in defence. Imagine if the try was allowed. The Tigers are ahead after having very little ball all half. Manly would have had to have felt deflated.
 
We kept competing but the weaknesses were definitely exposed by Manly as expected.
We seemed gassed after defending for practically 20 mins straight
Aussie Jim said as much in the presser

The first 20-25 mins we had like 4-5 sets with the ball … it was crazy
 
Its a hard game to be critical of them yesterday they all had a dig key moments and the rub of the green were against us. The 1 st half no try i havent seen one of them picked up all year, the Stef sin bin was ridiculous. Toa letting the ball bounce from the bomb, Toa being held back by Turbo Manly got away with blue murder. We were in the game even though we were like salmon swimming up stream, all while having only 2 on the bench and most of our backline out.
 
I was pleased with Peachey in the centres tbh. He looks just as quick as Gildart and did a good job there. I’d play him there next week. Move Garner to the back row with Kelma out. AJ in the centres with Maumalo and Nofoaluma on the wings.
Dropping Peach was the best thing Madge has done. Since returning Peach has come back energised, refreshed, and the player we all know he can be and what he brings to the team imo.

Enough is enough - can a review be undertaken on the bunker and refs?

With the players currently available i would play Peachy and AJ in centres with Ken and noffa on wings. Garner and Luc starting SR with Tuilagi off bench. Tamou and Uto starting Props with Simpkins. Bench should be Musgrove, Tuilagi, Mikaele and Seyfarth.
