SOO 2 - 2018 Game Day - Blues Win Series

[HappilyManly]

Might be just a tiny bit biased but I thought Jake had a huge match.

Jake is the OJ Cunningham, doesn't get noticed much till he is not there

I still think Roberts is a waste, maybe Cotric is better in D

Mitchell and Ado still need game time to co ordinate, but will be awesome once they do.

Cleary and Teddy only appeared in the last 20 minutes. But then they showed their wares.

I'm still amazed at Cordner's work rate. Too bad he won't remember the game 😀

 

[Dee Why Eagle]

apart from first QLD try, thought Tom Turbo was outstanding in defense (esp in 2nd half)

Lol Kalyn Ponga saying he didn't think there was much difference in feeling between club football and SOO. He's very likable

Don't you love seeing a player so naive that he gives an honest straight answer instead of hyping myths... lol

 

[Holmsey]

James Roberts, there is no team man in Jimbo.

Tom looked even better with the other bloke off the field.

The indecision was gone. He backed himself to make the right play and he did multiple times. Well done Tommy and Jake was massive as always.

He definitely came good down the back stretch there... good recovery from a shakey start (and from getting smashed run after run again).

I’d go Maloney mom, didn’t stand out but he ran that side imo.

It looked like Lockyer was trying to steer him to make a particular answer but Ponga handled himself well

Agreed - especially in defence. It was basically a matter of - don’t need to wait and see what that dope is going to do, just make the decision and do what needs to be done.

Great game

Watching Hunt play makes me feel just a tad bit better about putting up with DCE this year

 

[Dee Why Eagle]

slightly grubby, but wish we had signed Maloney!

He lifted when the Jet went off and stopped confusing him 😀

Tommy should have just mounted Jimmy and made a turbo jet...

...and more impressive than that old Fokker Hayne Plane

 

[Pittwater Legend]

48 post conact metres out of 115m for Jake. Fantastic effort

Tom admitting that he decided to be more decisive in defence once James Roberts got binned. Exacted some revenge with a crunching tackle late in the game when QLD had a sniff

Hope the Courrier Mail orchestrates a character assassination on Hunt like they did on Chez

 

[Simonmyers11]

Not a bad team to watch play either, seems like they have a good culture.

Jake was a beast again. Is there a better defender in the game. Never misses a tackle

 

[NYEagle]

So happy for Jake and Tom to taste success.

Now Manly clear out all this dead wood and build a new team around the Trobs and let’s give them deserved success at club level.

I think Trent was assistant coach for both teams kicking structures in the oppositions 20 because their was none.

 

[SeaEagle21]

NSW win and Turbos not injured “Praise the Lord!!!”

 

[HappilyManly]

Slater will be replaced by Ponga who'll still lack Slater's ability to organise his defenders.

Munster and Morgan will be the halves

They really missed a 100% goal kicker too

Hunt will be a hooker at most 😛
