Game Day: Raiders V Manly [Round 23, 2024]

[Dion Johnson]

Turbo having one of his best games this season. Much needed

Playing tough today Turbo after getting ironed out with a good hit from Hudson Young.

Croker not being on the park was the difference! He is slow and provides clunky service and has done so for years!

it’s clear as day but not so for the idiot coach

Give me Jake simpkin at 9 and Gordon at 14
Croker has been terrible today

Hold the ball, we win the game.

It's that simple.

Is there something in the water in canberra we know their coach is the biggest sooky lala in the nrl for the last 25 yrs but the fans have to also be the biggest bunch of whingeing fans in the comp

Second to Parra I think 🤔

Its why I would move Jake Trbojevic to prop and play Croker as a ball playing lock. He doesn't have to be a runner, just a ball player who can be an extra kicker. And his defensive game can handle it as we know.

But his service from dummy half does hold us back.

Yeah why is Simpkin not in the 17? By far the best service of all the 9s. I wonder if he’s an ordinary trainer or something.

 

[Scorpio]

Not sure if DCE is injured but Brooks is steering the team around in both running and kicking.

I suspect Simpkin won't be in NSW Cup for much longer.

Our completion rate is much worse than Canberra but we are still leading. If we hold onto the ball we should win this one.

 

[DanielTurbo888]

The ABC commentary doing a mighty fine job as per usual. Much better than Fox and CH9

 

[ManlyGM]

We are simply the better side when focused. If we continue to make silly errors and penalties we’ll lose. If Turbo continues to be the threat he’s been this game and we complete our sets, don’t shoot ourselves in the foot we can win this.

 

[wombatgc]

Bully run run.

He was working his arse off in defence prior. He’s so quick in the ruck. Absolutely deserved that try.

 

[HoldenV8]

DCE had a relatively poor first half ... but it was his cross field kick for Saab near the end of that half that put us on the attack which we managed to take advantage of with Bullemor's try.

No allowance for Frog, 1st game back after a long injury layoff? 🤔

Which makes it all the more puzzling why he started the game. Maybe he should have come off the bench instead of being thrown straight into it from kickoff.

 

[HoldenV8]

Troy Aikman would be proud of that pass from DCE ... but unless the ref calls it the bunker can't do squat.

 

[Ashton Davis]

A lot of Chezza in that exchange. Good to see him get over

 

[The Royal Soup]

DCE IS ALIVE!!!!

 

[DanielTurbo888]

DCE injured? Nah

 

[globaleagle]

woohoo!

go dce.

Great to hear the manly chant as well

🙂

 

[hozza]

Dce has woken up. Good work, good finish
