[Eagles4Life]

Such is life. Great year boys. Proud to be Manly. 2022 here we come. Go Manly.

 

[Arko-admirer]

From Keppie's drop after a half break and then going off with HIA it seemed like it wasn't going to be. But we need to step up from where we are. Still a great and entertaining year and one where our side caught the league world's imagination.

 

[Kevinward777]

Keppie HIA was huge - Go Penrith!

 

[deanm]

Such is life. Great year boys. Proud to be Manly. 2022 here we come. Go Manly.

Agree , the better side won. Incredibly we had more line breaks and missed less tackles. We were owned by a more experienced team. Bring on 2022 !

 

[Ron E. Gibbs]

Geez, that bus is really running late now. Still waiting for the team to turn up…

 

[Dan]

Good on Souths. They went about their work quietly all year. Deserve to be there. Bounce of ball went their way tonight but they well and truly nailed us.

Good on em!

 

[Red Pill]

A disappointing night but a hell of a great season. We will be a force in 2022.

@Simonmyers11 said about Garrick in Game thread...
he has definelty gained a yard of pace this year garrick. dam fast. he has had a good year

He's always had the pace but the ball has rarely got out to him (until recently).

 

[Fibro Eagle]

Totally gutted
But just too many errors
I can say I’m proud of the team for getting so far , but just so disappointing to go out like that
There are a few young guys in this squad so can only learn from it and be better I’m Manly and will always be Manly
GO MANLY
Im just gonna get another extra strong rum

 

[Yaz Eagle]

Well we made mistakes which led to them scoring. We didn’t respect the ball. The young players will learn a lot from this and with the core of the squad back next year we will be dangerous. This was a game to be won - South’s were not great, we were poor.

Correct 2020 Suli inside 2021 Parker inside….spot the difference

Before the game I spent a bit of time watching the highlights of some our games v Parra, the dogs and the titans (when we came back after half time)

So much fun to watch and a great reminder of where we have come.

On the completion rate talk - there was an analysis done by Des that there is no correlation between successful teams and completion rates

The nutty statistic that has Manly’s mad professor on cusp of grand final

If Des Hasler is a demon for numbers, trawling through statistics in the early hours, the Sea Eagles ‘innovation consultant’ Ramy Haidar is even more obsessed.

This has been floating around league stats chat for a while as well

 

[Pittwater Legend]

Souths held their nerve tonight and it served them well. They’ll have a really tough test next week

 

[hozza]

Absolutely gutted but Souths deserve to be in the big dance. Gave us a lesson in finals footy. Been a great year though.

The mistakes are compounded by our lack of resilience in defence. It's been our achilles heel since about Round 6 last year.

 

[Ranga]

I can't see how they beat the Storm. The Storm will blow them apart. But if Penrith get through, they are a 50:50 chance I reckon.

 

[joeboy]

Great season to watch we probably didn’t have enough hard fought wins to steel us for finals.

I’m bitterly disappointed, I could handle if we lost and we were in it but to not even fire a shot in a prelim is very deflating.

Just didn’t have players who Knew what it takes in a prelim to drag us back in. And we made so many mistakes.

I’m really surprised that a des coached team did not address very obvious shortcomings

Whoever they play

Look I hope the Rabbitohs lose next week cause I’ve started a thread a while back labelling them pretenders haha. It will be an ultimate reverse mock if they win next week
