Game Day: Cowboys V Manly [Round 11, 2025]

[danny-boy]

how the **** is it 6 all? Cowboys have been so dominant and have had all the ball.

 

[The Royal Soup]

hahaha wow what a play

 

[HK_Eagle]

A long break allowing the cows to get their defensive line set… so who do we give it too off the restart? Lehi 🤦‍♂️ I know we have some powder puff forwards, but somebody in the pack has to put their hand up and take that first run.

 

[JBW]

If Laurie Daley is seriously considering choosing Turbo over Lomax, he's a worse coach than Trent Barrett

 

[Eagle 1]

Our pack is so soft and our number 7 has had his slippers on all season time to drop the pretender.

Yeah, wasn't impressed with the grubber from hell on the 1st tackle, then face a 7 tackle set.

 

[Disco]

Interesting to see Joey Walsh up in the coaches box.

You dont often see that for 18 year old rookies.

Reckon the club sees a big future in him.

Yeah love Tom but Lomax looked great Friday

 

[XV-1]

If D$E doesn’t start playing he might not get picked for QLD🤦‍♂️

Planned move. Garrick would have scored if he wasn't taken off the ball.

 

[JakeyB789]

DCE is just pathetic. More momentum killing kicks on first tackle, drop outs that go neither short nor long, horrible defence down his side every time. Can’t stand the prick, rest of the team bar Turbo are doing OK though

 

[Dan]

Good news is after a particularly rough week im in Tumut and landed 12 trout today. Biggest was a 44cm bull brown trout.

 

[WAMF]

Sad to say but very poor positional play by Turbo leading to the Cowboys try. It's his job at the back to understand the numbers.

 

[HoldenV8]

Saab’s hands are dreadful

Former dual Pommy rugby international turned commentator Ray French called Martin Offiah the world's most lethal try scorer after his length of the field try against Leeds in the 1994 Challenge Cup Final at Wembley.

Jason Saab could be that if he could ever sort out his handling.....

 

[Brookie1973]

Happy they are showing some grit. Still no discernible structure or patterns of play. Cows are terrible. Ref is a ****wit.

Was it coming off the back fence?

I was screaming the same thing at the TV. One of the reasons I love Lehi is that he always put his hand up for plays like that. But throwing it to our smallest player in that situation did not reflect well on our forwards.

 

[Dingo]

We are so lucky we’ve made some decent scramble plays and they’ve made a few errors, this should not be 6-6 it’s been all down our end. Luckily not out of it though, just need to get our defence sorted a bit when we aren’t on the line because they’re just rolling up the field. Gotta give ourselves some more chances.

Don’t think we’ve been terrible, but certainly haven’t been great. Just kinda getting by. Get some chances and stop making these stupid plays and we can win this one.

Honestly thought he’d have a big one this week. Playing like he took a Valium pre game.

And that’s what makes him so frustrating to watch. I think it’s all mental for him. He just doesn’t seem to have that self-belief or determination.

 

[SeaEagleRock8]

Hope Jake will be OK.

 

[niccipops]

Going better than last week.
Ref giving cows a leg up. Need to stop kicking the ball when not necessary.
Still in this.
Go Manly!
