Game Day: Manly V Eels [Round 8, 2024]

[HK_Eagle]

Good to see we channelled the spirit of T. Hill for the game… let alone the ANZACS.

 

[NYEagle]

Wow Manly are soft tonight.

Is there even a forwards game out there?. They are going lateral constantly and the wingers look tired.

Impossible to get strong performances two weeks in a row.

[skull61]

Lodge and Brown too slow liability in defence

 

[Nordburg]

It hopefully comes back to bite me in the second half,but as I’ve said all season,there has been absolutely no improvement to this team from last year,still have the same problems.The worst part about this season is that there’s been minimal injuries to use as an excuse

 

[The '47ers]

Way to embrace the Anzac spirit and show Terry Hill some respect: farking useless bunch of cats

 

[mickqld]

We let Titans score 30 last week. What do we expect. Our defense has been dogsh*t all year.

That would suggest last week was a strong performance

 

[Dion Johnson]

Turbo not getting the pill when we been down in the opposition 20, the left side attack is looking way out of shape.

Swap Garrick and Talua for the second 40..

 

[The Indian]

Only good news is it should be much much much more deficit. What a lazy effort in front of a sold out crowd.

We can't play a half as bad as that again surely??

And ffs parra appeal for penaltirs for absolutely everything and we don't even appeal for blatant head high tackles like Luke Brooks.copped. so mentally lax we are.

 

[Eagle 1]

At least Gutho's not kicking them tonight. Thank god it's HT.

 

[HK_Eagle]

Ruebs invisible.
Turbo hasn’t turned up again.
Croker continues his poor form.
No desire to play it hard and tough up the middle, or bring any composure or grind.

It's called the Sutton paradox

 

[SeaEagle007]

Seibold has no defence soft needs to get that sorted

 

[JBW]

Fast line speed by Parra. We have nothing when a team comes at us fast in defence. There's no plan B again. We tried going expansive. Parra absorbed it. Now they rushing is after getting the momentum and we have nothing.

Luckily Gutho can't kick...it's the only thing giving us half a chance.

 

[Mark from Brisbane]

As I mentioned pre game , I expected the Squeals to throw everything bar the kitchen sink at us.

I actually think they’ve thrown the sink as well.

Let’s give credit to them they are desperate tonight , and we look a bit shell shocked.

Anyway there’s 40 to go so who knows but not looking too promising at this point.

 

[Kalvin]

Want to know what defensive drills are we doing at training

What are these "drills" you speak of?

Queen Gutho must seriously have the strongest shoulders and arms in the NRL. He's forever waving them like an imbecile calling for a penalty on every play.

 

[joeboy]

I honestly can’t conceive how people can’t see how detrimental crokers service is to our whole game, he is so slow with loopy **** passes

Turbo is beyond disappointing at the moment

Garrick needs to **** off back to the wing, post haste.

Someone needs to inspire the team.

 

[Ralphie]

We let Titans score 30 last week. What do we expect. Our defense has been dogsh*t all year.

For a decade actually.

 

[Ron E. Gibbs]

Firstly, whoever is in charge of playing the music at the ground should be taken out the back and quietly disposed of. It's bad enough we're playing like ass without some clown spinning sick beats like he's working a Blue Light Disco.

Second, we can't defend. Let, right, middle - it's all awful. Which has pretty much been the case all season. Our attack looks a little off as well, but not so off that it can't be fixed. The defence, on the other hand, needs a massive attitude adjustment.
