All NRL Games [Round 1, 2025]

[Eagle 1]

Can the broncos get to 50?

Yes...

 

[manlyfan76]

50-8 10 to go.


No premiership for chooks.

 

[Nike]

Roosters faded round 1 LMAO Robinson is gooone!

 

[mickqld]

OMG I cannot see our side getting anywhere near this sort of level of performance. What a smash up.

 

[Oligarch]

Defence has been pretty average from both sides.

 

[Dion Johnson]

Reynolds and Hunt haven’t got out of first gear, Reynolds in particular controlled the game with his general kicking.

Townsend he looks done to me, young Rodwell won’t be to far out of first grade.

 

[HoldenV8]

I see Madge has 2 former Manly greats in the coach's box in Ballin and Barrett

Barrett has proven to be a good assistant coach, i.e. someone with no real decision making powers ... he just sucks like a $2 hooker as a head coach.

 

[Dan]

Roosters have lost some key people about 4 or 5 of them imagine what would happen to our team if we lost chez, turbo, bootless, sanga and Saab

Not to mention a few forwards. It's a different team...


.......also *licks pen, puts a line through the roosters

 

[Phobia]

Offloads, offloads , offloads. Been saying it repeatedly if you want to win you must get offloads and 2nd phase plays. Manly is one of the worst teams for offloads last few years.

It's amazing that we're one of the biggest packs, and yet Des and Seibs never decided to implement offloads into our game. It's just shift off a quick PTB. Hopefully we see some more this year.

Like seriously, we won a finals game off a single Turbo offload!

 

[Brookie Bob]

What genius decided to employ him
MASTER STROKER

Perhaps they were debating about their numbers in attack......or defense.............the maths of coaching. Yes, I think that TBAZ may well be an experienced maths debator...............

 

[Jay Eagle]

Robinson's press conference.. is he serious
If Seibs spewed out that s@#t after a 50 point loss this forum would go into meltdown.
If we lose by 50 we are going to go into meltdown anyway..haha

But seriously that press conference was absolutely p#@s poor

I’ll bet a case of beer that Mat Ballin coaches the Manly first grade side within the next few years.

Horses mouth sauce

 

[globaleagle]

Some matchup results are tough.

The roosters lost, and by 50. (hooray)
It was the broncos that beat them. (boo)

[globaleagle]

Just watched the highlights and I know they don't tell the whole story, but it seemed like everything the broncos did turned to points. Some of those passes would be hard to stick in dry weather footy.

And...

Once they get these 'chips' into the footballs for forward passes - the game is gunna crap itself! (But knowing the nrl they'll design the chips to give certain leeway's).

 

[The '47ers]

Barrett has proven to be a good assistant coach, i.e. someone with no real decision making powers ... he just sucks like a $2 hooker as a head coach.

Pretty shrewd move by Madge I say. Hire Barrett and then just simply do the opposite of what he suggests!

I wonder what the Chook faithful think about Blobbo, smashed in the major semi, hammered in the trials now this. Think he's run out of credits now.

ah ah Kevvie used to have all his brothers and old boys +.Ballin and Carty as assistants. Now Madge as Bazzarero and Matty, could this be the formula for success?

The George Costanza of coaching............

 

[jbb/james]

Are roosters missing any key players apart from Walker?

I only caught the end of a comment watching it

They said the chooks needed dispensation to allow 2 players outside the squad for round 1. That sounds pretty dire

Hope i heard correctly, but they then lost radley early
