    Annesley's weakly "Why this happened" report - 2022

    The question is will Atkins have more influence on the result by being in the bunker, given Sutton disallowed 2 of Penriths tries that should have been awarded.

    Finals week 3 ( 2022)

    I think Penrith win also, but it won’t be 40-0. The NRL will want the Parra fairytale. Imagine if Atkins is appointed as the ref?

    Finals [Week 1, 2022]

    Happy to see Canberra win but u shouldn’t be able to score a try of a falcon that goes forward and then you fall on it.

    Other Games [Round 22, 2022]

    Contrast the way Souths play to our team; lose their halfback late and put in a rookie and don’t miss a beat. Their depth is outstanding and if Mitchell stays fit can win the comp. I thought they would struggle when Bennett and Reynolds left, but it just shows how much we need to improve to...

    How to stop this terrible 10 minute patch

    Having watched the replay today, I think too much has been made of the last 10 minutes; we were up by 10 with a minute to go so were never going to lose. Also the ref and bunker intervened to give Melbourne a chance. I know Schuster was in front of the kicker, but no advantage from a long kick...

    [Resurrected] Turbo injury,healt..wait..injury - updates

    Why can’t he play centre, but have the same roving role he has for NSW? Was still devastating and won Man of the series.

    Under 19's mens State of Origin

    The reality is the NRL wants Melbourne to succeed to maximise broadcast revenue. Otherwise, why would you put up with a club which has introduced every cheating method possible in its’ short history to be successful. Even when they were “punished” for the salary cap scandal, they were still...

    Thoughts from Cowboys match

    I just watched the replay of the match and aside from the DCE stuff up which ended up costing us the game, I thought he had one of his better games. Manly was by far the better team overall, and if the bunker did their job, there would never have been a grandstand finish. How do you get the...

    Taking the 2 Points from Penalties

    Sorry, the 2 points there is irrelevant. We scored two tries to go 26 -12. The biggest decision was the overrule by the bunker, when Robson was offside from the kick. How he could say that the run and the pass equaled 10 metres is beyond me. Especially as the ref called no try initially. Also...

    [Resurrected] Flat Track Bullies

    The refereeing in the Eels game was bordering on cheating; Cummins missed a metre forward pass in the last couple of minutes that would have saved us. Let alone every other decision he gave them in the final 10 minutes.

    SOO, Jake, DCE, general discussion

    So zero penalties to NSW, but QLD holding down and 3rd man in all day. If NSW gets a fair shake in the 2nd half should win this.

    Post-Game Discussion Eels v Manly [Round 11, 2022]

    We did do some dumb things; but we were stitched up in the second half. Unless u r one of the favoured teams like Parra, u have to do everything right to win. I am over the NRL and the way matches are orchestrated. After 50 years as a Manly supporter I won’t be watching any more games this year.

    Game Day: Manly v Broncos [Round 10, 2022]

    Not that it matters tonight, but Cobbo never got back to the goal line, so should have been a penalty.

    Marty

    No excuse to throw that pass before halftime; we just got a 4 point lead playing with 12 and any slim chance to go on with it in the second half went out the window. As our most experienced forward should have known better, and if he’s unhappy then play some of the younger brigade as we’ve done...

    If we had 2 x DCE

    As bad as Harper was last night, it’s no coincidence that teams target our right side defence, which is led by DCE. Our left side defence is much more solid, and even though Koula will make a big difference ongoing we still need to address these issues. Also, our attack looked so much better...

    DCE and Foran. Is it working?

    As much as it pains me to say it, I don’t see us winning a premiership with DCE at number 7. Despite being our most experienced player, he t as led too many wrong options, doesn’t put enough pressure on the opposition with his kicks, and I think his decision making in defence on the right side...

    Post-Game Discussion Penrith v Manly [Round 1, 2022]

    Throw in Croker and with the exception of Turbo, our spine is way off the pace. Penrith are the benchmark team, and the concern is not losing in week 1, but it’s a repeat of our performances against the top teams that suggests we are slow learners( that includes the coach).

    Post-Game Discussion Penrith v Manly [Round 1, 2022]

    Penrith obviously the better team, but the bias/incompetence of this ref is mind blowing.

    Game Day: Penrith v Manly [Round 1, 2022]

    I’ve said it before that DCE needs to be hooker, provided Schuster is back soon. Also need to look at some of the younger forwards like Tuitavake.
