Post-Game Discussion Souths v Manly [Round 4, 2023]

[Alfreddo]

I thought we were the better team but our big guns failed to step up in that second half.

 

[Waz13]

100% robbed

Try taken of us for some mystery forward pass.

And that penalty to even it up. A) it was a forward pass and B) Lawton grabbed his shoulder

Not just that. Souths slowed the ruck all night and never got called for it. Turbo running at about 65%. Perhaps a little off the pace fitness wise still. Totally robbed. The forward pass call was one of the worst I’ve seen.

 

[Rafferty]

I would happily swap out The Pastor, send him to Blacktown, and replace him with Sharon.

Lawman or Bully are both better options

 

[Dan]

We were never going to be allowed to win that but also have ourselves to blame. Our attack was non-existent in that second half. Ill take a 1 point loss there and hopefully there's a ton E of things to improve on. We could still finish the round in second would have been nice to be clear second though

 

[davohan123]

We had enough ball and possession to win that by a lot.

South's had all there forward pack out and a number of others out.

We should of won that game and I think come season end it will cost us a finals spot

 

[HK_Eagle]

So, let’s put this in perspective. Josh derailed our latter 2022 season with his personal garbage, and he still fails to deliver for our team onfield. He is a selfish flog who is yet to speak with actions onfield. Happy to see Sharon replace him.

That pass was easy as

Yea right. In the 83rd minute to catch the ball behind your shoulder.
You muppet.

 

[Captain Moondog]

We were beaten by the "FORWARD PASS " In the first half. I'm sure all the sensible will tell me I'm delusional but I'll trust my ageing eyes.

 

[Alfreddo]

Still second. But i am devastated tbh

 

[BirdMan4ever]

Tough game, we held on for too long. Yardage out of our own half is still terrible .
Attack looked disjointed , low energy, 1 out runners and no support.
I will say again. Ben turbo offers nothing from the bench, tippy toes contract is a mistake.
Refs were always going to push a win for soufs due to the crowd and Sadler passing.
We truly missed froggy tonight.

 

[Simonmyers11]

I thought the kicking game let us down a little in the last 15 minutes. Forwards were very good, probably could of ran a little more from dummy half.

Both sides defended well

 

[blacktown eagle]

There'll be talk from the media about that "forward" pass

There literally won’t be

Rabbits win always scripted for tonight.

 

[Pittwater Legend]

 

[NREagle]

It may have been a loss but I'd say overall we are building nicely for a good season.

Hope Croker is back next week.

 

[pt73]

We should have won that 18-10 cheated of that win. what will the NRL say about the clearly cheating ref???
Anyway we will pay them back in spades next time

Annesly will offer the usual pathetic excuse.

 

[HK_Eagle]

Lawman or Bully are both better options

How is the stark contrast between the heart and effort shown by Bully vs the over-hyped under-performing Josh

 

[Raffa]

So, let’s put this in perspective. Josh derailed our latter 2022 season with his personal garbage, and he still fails to deliver for our team onfield. He is a selfish flog who is yet to speak with actions onfield. Happy to see Sharon replace him.

Couldn’t agree more - by far my least favourite Manly player. Always drops the ball or gives away penalties in very crucial moment over the last couple of years. He needs to be moved on.

 

[XV-1]

There'll be talk from the media about that "forward" pass.
Over to you Anusley

Lets see if Fox sports analyse it.

 

[Jerry1]

I’m sorry but I thought Turbo was a passenger today he does not seem to want to hit his straps. IMO he is still worried about hamstrings

Shadow of his previous self.

 

[Terry Zarsoff]

At least we can move on from a week of honouring the man who was sent off 30 times during his career. But he was a gentleman off-field, so it’s all good.

VeeLandis will be happy.
