Non-Manly Games [Round 10, 2019]

I’d still take the Fox over Paperhouses. He’ll definitely be on all the ops tip sheets from now on though.

 

[TimmyQ]

Damn, that new Storm fullback has some serious speed. He has an awkward looking running style, but it obviously works for him.

State of Origin bench bolter- he terrifies tiring teams up the guts 😛

 

[TimmyQ]

Wow this new storm fullback is super quick... i think this kids the fastest in the game right now he just blew them away

Yup Bronson Xerri held the 'fastest man in league' mantle for a fortnight. This kid has them all covered.

He has the speed but he does get monstered like a rag doll, if he is the "bolter" for Origin they would have to protect him, specially if they go the wing for him.

Just being a bit cheeky really but I enjoyed the times in origin when someone relatively unheralded was thrown in. Less likely to happen these days sadly.

 

[Tragic Eagle]

What happened to to races that used to be staged between NRL players? That was good fun. I'd like to see categories of events such as fastest player, fayest back, fastest forward over 20 meters, 50 metres and 100 meters.

Risk of injury i guess

Now if the Gods want to start my weekend off on the best possible way lets hope the Warriors put 60 on the downtrodden Panthers tonite!

And to think he was a Tugers' junior. How did they let him go, plus Ado-Carr and Fifi for that matter?
The Tugers produce a lot of good players but seem to lose more of them than other clubs.

 

[HappilyManly]

Riff and Rorters to keep the chaff away from Manly tonight

 

[dowdz]

I picked the Riff after that woeful display last week. Stupid me actually thought they may bounce back at home. They look lost and just horrible.

 

[Ranga]

Both the panthers and the Broncos are so underwhelming this year. Does it have anything to do with players not buying into the coaches who are so obviously mercenaries?

 

[Ron E. Gibbs]

What the hell is going on at Penrith? Has Coach Cleary lost the dressing room? Does he even know what direction it's in? And how long before we see an "Ivan the Terrible" headline?

Cleary is an under whelming coach that jumped ship to coach his son. Nepotism and it’s perceived influence! This will be the end of his NRL coaching career.

As for sooky sooky lala up there in Brisbane, he would be best suited in coaching Parramatta, all losers accounted for!

It’s interesting (and amusing) to see how the Riff have gone backwards and the Tiggers playing far, far better this year...

It sorta points towards Ivan being a smidgen on the “over rated” side

Phillip Duke springs to mind.

Phil Duke anyone?

There clearly isn't a dressing room to be found...
Gus must have burnt it down before he left

Dropping a winger was certainly the answer wasn't it......

And all the while the coaches son isn't close to being dropped despite the fact that he's so far out of form its not funny. Ivan Cleary is becoming like Homer Simpson coaching Bart's Pee Wee Football team.

 

[HoldenV8]

Phil Duke anyone?
