Go the Blues!!!

 

[Cameron]

Go the blues especially the two manly boys and my man the fox

 

[Terry Zarsoff]

Is Sterlo the Ed O’Neill of rugby league?

What am I saying - O’Neill is still much better looking.

Sterlo could never pull Sofia Vergara.

 

[ALinda]

As long as the Turbos finish unscathed and a Blues win will be a bonus. Go the Turbos Blues!

 

[HK_Eagle]

Wow, first drag tackle over the sideline in the history of SOO being called as a penalty. What a dud call and ridiculous influence on the game momentum

 

[brad]

Tommy coming in off his wing will be problems.

 

[HappilyManly]

Turbo only has eyes for the centre and lets in the winger

 

[HK_Eagle]

I think that try was on Tommy. Didn't trust his inside man to make the tackle and wrongly chose to come in. Poor defending Tommy.

 

[Terry Zarsoff]

Is Tom destroyoviching his own SOO career?

 

[Simonmyers11]

Tom doesn't trust roberts at all in defence. Cant blame him. Roberts is a turn style

 

[niccipops]

Qld look well on top. They're targeting young Tommy. Come on Blues. I don't want to put up with the crazies at work.

Watch the replay. He doesn't come in inglis goes straight past roberts with ease and scores anyway

As much as I agree Roberts is not the best defender, that doesn't excuse Tom's poor defensive read there. He had to stay on his man and trust Roberts to make the tackle.

Absolutely didn’t trust him, and with good reason, Roberts can’t defend for ****.

Hopefully Tommy has learned from that one - stay out on your wing and let Roberts take the heat for his own dud defence next time.

Targeting Roberts. Cannot tackle to save his life one on one with inglis. Tom has to come in to help leaving his man open.

Inglis had roberts beat

That was a fair penalty, even if they haven’t been given in the past. Not the smartest move by Mitchell and Addo-Carr there.

Look, we are all one-eyed Manly fans here but I'm not going to make excuses for that play by Tom. It was a poor decision regardless of whether we think Roberts would have been beaten or not. He has to trust Roberts otherwise there is no point playing out there on the wing.

Disagree. His momentum was never halted. Geez, we watch Gordy drag a player halfway across the field into touch and celebrate it as an iconic SOO moment. Penalising that was wrong in terms of the momentum rule and precedent, IMO.

Sure it was the wrong decision, but you can’t blame him for not trusting Roberts. It’s more a matter of screw Roberts, if he can’t make his tackles let him wear it.
