I've laid the Eagles vs Sharkies match on my lab table and dissected it.
Summary:
Manly had a shocker. I've never felt so empty after a win before, though in saying that I would have felt heaps worse if we had lost to a 12 man Shark squad. Pure luck got us the two points that afternoon.
Earlier this year Scott Prince stated that he had an empty feeling after the win over the Eagles. Now the Manly Sea Eagles and their fans have experienced the same kind of victory.
Negatives:
Running sideways.
Dropped balls.
Paper-thin defence.
Being switched off for 90% of the game.
The send off - It was a high shot, Bailey was left unconscious and did not return to the field. You could argue that the send off was deserved, the problem is inconsistency as players from all teams get away with a lot worse each week.
Positives:
B.Stewy lasted 80 mins.
George Rose.
Two points.
Ricky's tanty was funny.
Autopsy result: Manly played bad, the 12 man sharks didn't play well enough to pull off a miracle win.
SEA EAGLES, GET IT TOGETHER. RUN STRAIGHT, TACKLE HARD AND PLAY WITH KNACKERS!
I'd also like to say a welcome aboard to Tassie Wild Girl. It's great to have more women's voices being heard.
