Game Day: Manly v Knights [Round 8, 2016]

[HappilyManly]

I literally have a headache - it was such a disjoint game to watch.

But thanks for the win Manly 4/8 with 5x5 day turnarounds

 

[Jerry1]

Come on, not one of our better wins but always need to celebrate a win.

It was crap. Rarely do I celebrate taking a dump...

 

[Loobs]

Amazingly Manly are now in the 8

And we've been **** so far with all the new players, injuries and turnarounds. So if they get a roll on what then..?

Amazingly Manly are now in the 8

Unless St Merge put 70+ on the Rorters, and the Warriors lose or win by less than 8, we will stay there

 

[Brooke]

Manly were lucky in signing Wright, we have no fullback left

Was thinking the same. We may need him for fullback next week and go Brayden I knew you could do it.

 

[HappilyManly]

I liked Killer on the wing and Matai there in stages. It prevents them running in and leaving the space along the sideline

Same here.

I decided to start watching the horse races and drink myself into a stupor instead!

Was half listening in the other room and reading this forum.

It is interesting to follow the comments when you can't see it.

Matai was great, some big hits and got more than a few sets rolling with dummy half scoots..

Killer.... Well mebbe it's time to move in a slot, and swap him for Walker.

Or give Vave the #6. Big fella is pretty to watch

We make as much sense as Manly's erratic play

But it's best to get our frustrations out or we may do mischief

Beers on me boys n girls

and now only 2 points from the 4, a very important win to keep in touch

Why is watching Manly games these days like pulling teeth with no anesthesia

 

[Simonmyers11]

You also just reminded me that Manly played for 10 minutes for no ****ing reason.
So I'm upgrading their win to a B+

I made a dash for the tv whenever I could hear the commentators and crowd go up.

Suprisingly, they were Manly tries.

Have it taped to watch it back without the stress later tonight.

Haven't finished drinking yet anyway!

I disagree on the "no reason": simply because it's an often overlooked professional foul these days. Honestly there *should* be more players getting a rest for it...

 

[Simonmyers11]

best thing about that game was improved line speed and edge defence getting better each week.

the combination of the 1,6,7 and 9 looks very disjointed.

 

[Terry Zarsoff]

Because Sharp is back onboard as skills and cohesion coach.

At least it looks that way.

The injuries certainly didn't help and it was a good sign that they led at the break and managed not concede any points whilst Matai was sin binned.

Not if you want the game to flow - we had the Simms doing exactly the same thing and they weren't binned.
Happens in every game
