Game Day: Manly v Eels [Round 22, 2016]

[Harvies elbow]

Yes yes yes !!!!
Go MANLY

 

[Chip and Chase]

Take the 2 and just settle this down

Or score under the posts LOL. 6-6 at half time will be a great result given how they are dominating us physically

 

[Kevinward777]

An ugly try, we don't look like scoring otherwise

 

[CBreeagles]

Korisou! Been our best tonight.

Nah mate his passes to DCE have been diabolical

 

[Simonmyers11]

With this rushing defence we seem predictable. Might be up to guys like Jake and Vave to get some second phase going.

 

[HK_Eagle]

Vave -> 5/8, Walker -> prop.

You know it makes sense

I was just about to post the same thing. In all seriousness, Vave shows much more refined ball playing skills than Walker. What the hell were the coaching staff teaching Walker over the off-season and first half of the season when priming him for 5/8?

 

[Clay]

Nice work from Api.

Is walker on apearence money only? Barley sighted.
He needs to take the pressure of DCE.

Api to 6, walker to 3 and brown /Leary hooker imo

 

[HappilyManly]

Because both Killer and Parcell aren't playing.

Can't Green or Brown fill in?

Walker can not think on the run, refuses to kick or pass

 

[Simonmyers11]

Nah mate his passes to DCE have been diabolical

Only one looked dangerous with the ball. And make huge tackles

 

[conanu]

Fox commentators raving on about Korisau like he is the next Cameron Smith. Get a grip Brandy Api struggles to pass.

 

[torana355]

Not a bad kick by DCE lol.

 

[Kevinward777]

Go Chezza

 

[KOMORI]

Hehehhehe half time lead

 

[HappilyManly]

Chezza 7-6 at HT is OK considering the start

 

[HK_Eagle]

With this rushing defence we seem predictable. Might be up to guys like Jake and Vave to get some second phase going.

Yep. We need to be smarter and get our big forwards running hard up the guts, close to the ruck, with support runners inside. Focus on getting quick play the balls and forward momentum before shifting anything laterally.

 

[torana355]

I agree with other posters, Apis slow passes are killing DCE.

 

[Jerry1]

Fmd DCE got a field goal. Well done my son..

 

[niccipops]

Thats because he is alone - everyone knows that he will get the ball on the 5th

Why do we persist with Walker who is a ball hogging centre playing as a 5/8

Not blaming Cherry. The team is responsible.

 

[Turbo]

Api having a great game! He cops too much for 1 or 2 crappy passes he has been great tonight really really happy gives us something different in attack.

 

[Harvies elbow]

Good mind games field goal.
Go Manly
