Game Day: Manly v Tigers [Round 9, 2022]

[Ryan]

Seggy is nowhere near 1st grade standard mate.

He looks really slow and ineffective compared to his old days, doesn't he !

Couple of things though. As the last placed Reggie's Tigers team touches up Blacktown, how bad is our clubs defense top to bottom !

Secondly, I saw an interview this week online with Ivan Cleary, and some of the Panthers up-and-coming players, and it showed how he's all over them, making it clear exactly what they need to do and achieve to get to first grade.

I still say Des needs a modern day coaching director like Cooper Cronk. He doesn't do the 1%'ers anymore in my view.

 

[Eagle 1]

We just need to find a win today

Do care how we get it. Just get the win.

I don't see this being a walk over at all.

We should win if we are serious about playing finals footy but these are the games in which we seem to always stuff up.

Huge sellout crowd and sunny dry day, only day game at home this year, no excuses even with the players we have out.

Having a sell out crowd at Brookie is motivation enough tbh..

 

[Ryan]

After watching this reserve grade match i agree no where near ready for first grade.

I'd be worried if any of them played first grade. This is Belrose Eagles quality or worse.

Well that might be because all of penriff Juniors are actually around penriff. Not this rediculous failure Blacktown experiment. If Des is busy with the 1st grade side why would he be travelling out to Blacktown semi regularly to oversee this lot. Clearly this is a failed concept send needs to go.

So i think with Harper and Weekes not playing reserves Koula is out. Harper to Centre and Weekes to the bench.

Fuk please no. It'll be Tigpies by 1 if that happens

Bloody shambles. Bring back manly reserve grade

 

[tookey]

How did Sione Fainu go for the tigers in flegg?

 

[Koko22]

With the rumour Koula is mow out along with Schuster they both could have got covid at the party and the club is lying like they did with Tom and the shower.

No confidence with mr soft Harper returning. Sell out at home and beaten by the tigers that would be embarrassing.

Have a bad feeling about this game.

We'll all know soon enough I guess, can't recall when there's been so much conjecture around team selections and positions as it has been this week.

[EaglesDontTweet]

For those that aren't watching the Blacktown Workers game, Spud Carroll just gave some insights on his time at Manly...

• Players copped fines for dropped balls, and
• Walking - you were only allowed 3 steps then you had to run.

Honest question, why can't we have a Manly reserve grade team? And for that matter , a women's team !

 

[Mark from Brisbane]

BWSE are going ok since I turned it on 10 minutes ago
