Game Day: Manly v Panthers [Round 26, 2016]

[Harvies elbow]

People can defend the coaching and blame injuries, tell everyone to be positive and look on the bright side, don't be negative she'll be right blah blah blah all they like...
We are sh*t

So I don't have fox, how was the game?

 

[Manly@capital]

Trent Barrett....a young man with fresh ideas...the future.

Did anyone actually see this guys credentials before giving him such a valuable asset? He has been poor in everything from letting players go to list management. I know the more rational people on here will say 'give him another year'...I say remove him and his coaching staff before they do any more damage.

I looked at our non existent line speed in defence in the first 10 minutes and just thought wow this is going to be a long nite. It is the last game of the year I guess.

Despite the last try Parker is probably the one high light tonight. Bring on Bainbridge.

In fairness, Vave had a couple of good enthusiastic runs.

Though, I guess if I was heading out of this rabble to a new club I'd be pretty upbeat too.

 

[The Royal Soup]

Trent really motivated the team this week it seems

Great game plan and selections

Injuries caused a lack of heart all season but this is just disgusting. The forwards have been great. The U20s and reserve grade backs have been ****. All the panthers tries and line breaks have come from the outside of the field after these backs were caught out and had the lack of speed to get back. But I don't care if they have been signed to manly they should be playing their hearts out for manly, more then that of any other club because us manly fans don't accept this utter failure and never will. The forwards are great and the injury replacements are not yet, it's expected that injury replacements are this bad and considering there are this many of them in the backs but I don't care I'm beyond outraged, they are playing for manly so they play FOR manly!

What is our biggest ever loss? It was after the beagles.

 

[niccipops]

I guess all we can hope for is a couple of tries and some tightening of our defence.
Jeez I hope we can get a serious kicker on board as soon as possible. That Cleary is as good as any kicker I've seen. Been so long since we've been guaranteed six points from a try.

 

[HK_Eagle]

We'll come back strong in the second half after a Trent vent ha ha ha haha

Yeah nah... we'll come back with immaculately groomed quiffs

 

[COMMANDER]

Please be over, bring on summer.

Get yourself a bottle of something and drink all of it.

The side where brown & Williame is playing is getting obliterated & has been all season yet our coaching staff has done nothing to rectify it if changes are not made 2017 will be much the same as this year

changes will be made, Matai will be back (likely) and snake will push Trbojevic to that or other wing with tafua playing on the other (probably with Matai, possibly with walker)

 

[simon64]

...Word from Penrith is that they have declared.

They figure if they don't even come out they can still win.

We have hit rock bottom.

A bottle of bleach

 

[HappilyManly]

What a horrible way to end our season.
Just sad for the fans.

Not as bad as last year, when Manly were actually meant to be playing for 8th spot. That Team was full of tanking Manly stars

 

[Ron E. Gibbs]

On the plus side, it's nice to watch a good team play.
I hope Penrith do well in the finals this year, starting with the Dogs next week. And I hope Tommy T is watching the way Moylan is playing.

 

[Rambo1987]

Pathetic
That's me for this year hope next year better.

Des?

 

[Dikefalos]

Fox commentator crapping on how wonderful the panthers have been what they have failed to mention is that Lewis brown can't tackle doesn't care if he can't tackle & couldn't make a read when defending if his life depended on it it has lead to 4 Penrith tries

 

[double hoops]

A good goal kicker. We have to score a try before we can even worry about the conversion. A good goal kicker may be many many years off.
