Game Day: Parramatta v Manly, Saturday [Round 4, 2020]

[Simonmyers11]

Well that completely sucked. And I still want a decent Number 9.

Goes to **** when Crocker comes on. If we had Fainu back in the 17 and DCE and Walker improved getting repeat sets we are right up there

 

[MissKate]

Can’t stand cummins but it was the touchie who made that incorrect call

 

[Bring back the.... Biff?]

For mine he has no idea what his hooker is doing, Crocker is ****ed.

Cmon mate croker only played 20 minutes.. dce buckled and buckled hard. Name one good thing he did all game? He was out played by dylan brown...
Siro kicks it dead
Turbo kicks it dead
Dce gets caught in the last on there 10
Made 23 points in SC thats how little he was involved... no repeat sets. No building pressure. He came alive in the last 5 mins when we finally started spreading the ball.. we got robbed but we should of crushed them. Dce with 1 of his myth days

 

[mickqld]

Greenturd might be gone but it's clear to see that there's still favoured teams. Especially now that the Qld ratings whore is no better than a Q cup side.

 

[Karin]

Mitchell Moses I hate to say is a better halfback than DCE.

Sorry , I love DCE just like the rest of you but he got owned tonight.

I don’t think Moses is a better halfback but I will say DCE has been a lot quieter these last 2 games.

 

[XV-1]

Who was the linesperson with his eyes painted on?

I want to know, as he must be sacked for the rest of the season.
Even the Manly hating commentators said pass was backyards.

 

[wombatgc]

Mitchell Moses is a flog

Such a punchable face.

 

[Ben]

Over all we looked lost out there for the bulk of the game. Some very promising signs though to come out of it with our goal line defence with the amount of ball they where handed. We where way off tonight but still should of won.
Bring on the Donkies next week

 

[Mals]

Tha try on half time. Cant beat the ref's though. I hope DCE is better next week gee.

Walker needs to be better too, if he had 10% of Cliffy’s ball playing ability we’d be sweet. Instead he dies with the ball.

 

[Cameron]

What a joke. I want to know how we didn’t get one set restart when those blue and gold
Pricks were raping us all night in the play the ball.

Really?
I thought we looked a great deal better with Croker on the park. Defensively superior, quicker distribution, superior vision, imo.

Fainu is obviously a massive loss, Levi, to me anyway, should be the sub.

[Captain Moondog]

Does anybody believe that if a Parramatta player had thrown that pass with the game on the line it'd have been called forward? No, it would have been a brilliant match winning try.....**** I hate those cheating bastards.

 

[davohan123]

now onto the broncos next week.

Where again the nrl can’t have there darlings lose again.

can feel another stitch up coming.

oh by the way when all of the fox panel agree that was not forward from tom then you truly know how bad that call was from Cummins

 

[mjb136]

We need to improve our set finishes. Was a great comeback but I thought we were poor in a lot of areas. Bloody ref didn’t help tho.

Agree, cherry was average tonight on 5th tackle.

 

[KOMORI]

Ouch... ok, we lost on scoreboard.

We didn’t play overly well, Cummins rode us into the ground, and the last ditch try that should have won us the game was disgracefully disallowed...

But.... BOTH teams know who really won that game.

We’ll bust them up next time we play them...

 

[Technical Coach]

Pass was forward by a mile, all this crap about momentum and point of release being backwards is over thinking it.

Linesman was right in line of the play yet we take a camera angle behind the play over his perfect view of the pass.(i feel sorry for linesman they can't win) Camera is behind the play making the point of release look backward, as the camera catches up with the play you see the true direction of the pass---it's not momentum that is floating the ball almost a full metre forward over a short distance.

Remember Tom is nowhere near full running speed, not even running a straight line to increase the chances of momentum taking the ball forward over a greater distance in the same direction---- a ball can float forward yes but not by that much over a short distance due to the laws of physics.

Slow the play down and you see where Tom released the ball before contact behind the 20m display number and the pass is caught almost on the line of the 20m----will take the linesmans view over camera angles and an estimation over how much physics has a play any day of the week.

I thought he did a great job.. he was tired at the end sure but eels had more ball then us and that's why we have Croker.. for the last 20. End of the day.... robbed

 

[Rackets]

I WANT ANSWERS....

Can't have the love child lose the game....

You'll get the answer from Annseley saying pass was good and the touchie will be dropped.
Two points should be taken from the slime and given to us but that won't happen. Maybe V'landys can make it happen.

 

[Cioran]

In 2007 and 2008 Manly fought through despite bad decisions by Ox. Time and again the boys would work the ball up the fields only to have Ox kick it over the dead ball line. In the 2008 final series he finally got his act together and made good decision after good decision. Maybe it’s part of Des’s game plan.
