Game Day: Manly v Warriors [Round 3, 2019]

[Dan]

Actually starting to enjoy the comedy act of the refs now

 

[Waz13]

So what’s the strong breeze worth? Back in the day they used to call them 12 pointers.

I don’t think the breeze is helping that much. We are tearing them apart and really should be 6-12 further up.

 

[XV-1]

We should win this. Should of been up by more. Just rolling up the field

We should have been 36, perhaps 42 points. Hope that does not hurt us in the end

 

[Ryan]

Solid game. Very proud of their attitudes. Great performance so far.

Kicks haven't really played a part for us so far today so the wind wasn't really a factor. We've just been making running and post contact metres almost at will.

 

[pjayz]

This can swing quite easily with these refs. We need to come out focused and go on with it.

 

[Eagles2nv]

Reffing of this game has been poor.

We look alot better with turbo in the team and the forwards have been good.

Jorge is having alot better game then his last 2.

Same as always Parker has me worried. Walker/kelly would have scored and it worries me that thommo keep a cutting back inside instead of using Parker.

 

[Highflier]

How on earth did this guy get his referee's ticket???

I think he found Barry Gommersall old ticket outside the stadium and he is just as bad as the grasshopper

The problem will be if they bring an A grade kicking game with the breeze that could have us pegged back.

This has Penrith a few years ago performance from the refs .sorry but very clear bias towards the warriors today DCE had every right to complain.

We score first in second half could be anything.

 

[Sue]

Manly playing pure football in the backs. Brings a tear to the eye. Go on with it boys. How long is it since we’ve seen ball movement like this

 

[Woodsie]

How good was Api ...

How good was Jorge .....

Sorry to disagree but the Grasshopper shat all over this clown as a referee.

 

[globaleagle]

very hard to watch this game in silence

But I am

I'm the real hero here

I agree. Even Brandy was blowing up deluxe, and he hates Manly. He wants the ref sacked for next week hahaha

 

[Spartan Eagle]

Elgey's a turnstile

View attachment 11022 Elgey

You beat me to it.. Not only is he having a poor game defensively (4 missed tackles) but has been disappointing in attack. Can't believe he passed to Joel on the 5th tackle and Joel kicked on the last play. He needs to grow some balls and inject himself in the game.

 

[MANLY4LIFE]

WE should be atleast one more try to the good i hope it doesnt bite us in the arse

 

[court83]

Man I wish the refs would lay off.. I didn't realise until last minute it was my turn in punters club. Thought stuff it, $20 on manly to win 13+ paying $5.20...
Every dodgy call, every called back try is killing me lol

 

[Ryan]

To be fair to Elgey, RTS makes most players look foolish in defense. We've only had 12 scored against us. We have scrambled very well so far.

YEah that blown Parker pass to Elgey and **** ref forward call cost us two tries but I’m very happy. Attack is great, defence is starting to calm down after an erratic start. Good to see us try our best (and succeed) to hold on late in that second half.

Forwards, especially Thompson, are all on fire today. Trbo proved to us he is a worthy fullback. Want to see some better defence overall for the second half but nonetheless very, very happy

Lucky we fixed up our kick diffusion after a scary start with two bouncing balls
