GAME DAY - Manly v Titans [Round 18, 2015]

[The Who]

I thought Sao was impressive, so 23 mins first half and then only brought on with 11 mins to go was a strange call. The scoreboard says it all so maybe Tooves didn't want to spoil the momentum.

I thought 2V rotated his bench well tonight. No complaints from me. I thought Hodges went well. His passing was crisp, and the rest seems to reinvigorate Balin.

 

[Sillybus]

Took Foran off because of a slight hip injury. Nothing serious, apparently.

Cheers buddy. Was at the grounds and wasnt sure why I couldnt see him in the field

 

[6/71]

Did foran get hooked at the end?

Precautionary rest.

It seems like Toovey is learning or getting tips from someone regarding the use of the bench.

 

[KOMORI]

The Matty Johns show just gave the crowd at 9600.....seems a bit more realistic.

Although probably still a bit inflated to be honest.

Agreed.. For what it's worth, the "official" crowd number I quoted earlier was a complete falsehood The number was pulled directly from my ass..

 

[Kiwi Eagle]

After a terrible weekend, that is a nice kick start to the week

Saw Stewart score a try, Stewart and Lyon in the clear, and we demolished them

All I would have wanted to add to that a Matai special and a DCE try to run the salt into their wounds

 

[niccipops]

Funny that the titans fans didn't turn up to support their team, they came to boo Chez.
Bunch of nuffies.

What I thought also made a big impact were the refs. Didn't blow any stupid, pointless ruck penalties, which aloud manly to get numbers in their and slow the play down, but the refs did keep a good 10m which saw us move the ball and have room to do something. Everytime we play a team like souths, we only get 7m and penalised for the most annoying things

We got the rub of the green for a change....

The Crowd includes the Season Ticket Holders they reckon - we won, so we don't care!

 

[Brookie Brawler]

Typical that we get the rub of the green in a game like this. Next close one we will get shafted again and people will say how it all evens up.

 

[qldeagle]

Proud of the boys tonight coz they had a dig. Well done, top 8 here we come.

@seaeagles
Geoff Toovey at post match presser.."we are confident that we can make the finals and the players are focused on that"

No way there was 8000 there. I thought our crowd of 14700 last week was light. Do they just make it up or what?

Lucky to be 800. There figures are horse ****.

 

[brad]

Beat the cows and the 8 is ours. And I'm a poet and didn't even know it..

This is first Manly/TItans match I haven't been to in years. Damn Monday matches.
Back in the bush due to work. Watched on the Nrl App but would have loved to be there.
Crowd looked low.
Manly looked great.

 

[doc]

If Brenton Lawrence comes back strong next week, our pack is suddenly looking good enough to give our backs the space. Still a little too sideways running from the halves for me..

 

[pjayz]

Big WILLIE!

Sorry, I meant to send that MMS to someone else...

 

[pjayz]

Justice for big Willie. Has been huge tonight.

So much I could say here, I can't decide where to start....
