NOt sure if Ive missed it, but here is the Manly game thread....
Ill get it started, if Palaliip asses to Bula rather than go himself for the double movement, we score first, instead, of course they do
Im 20minutes (watching on delay) other than the Manly try, which was a great offload, lots of good signs.
we are hanging in there, noticeable at ground api and Brooks working ok together, wakeham playing ok when he gets involved. Bateman defending well and again plenty of traffic being run at brooks. We are still in with a chance
Just got in and have to say this looks to be promising seeing as our second half is much better than our first half this year.
16 - 14 WestsTigers way
Our halves are the most frustrating inept incompetent etc etc etc
Can’t blame Wakeham as he’s a minimum wage player, but my god it must be so heartbreaking for the other players in this team to play beside Brooks every week. In the last 10 minutes he drops a very easy pass which would have put us in front, then with a minute to go he does a wayward pass and then a short pass to Klemmer for a hit up. He is one of the highest paid players in the game and he can not step up when we need him. He’s now 1 year without a win. This will sound harsh but he’s a loser.
It’s an absolute disgrace that the imbecile in the coaches box puts his ego ahead of the teams best interest every week. Absolutely fuming, and devastated for players like Api who try their guts out to be let down week in and week out by a bloke that’s failed for 8 years, and a coach who is absolutely off his freaking head. Brooks should be put in reserve grade for the rest of the season and Sheens should be sent back to England tonight. Absolutely over it!!!!!!!!!!
Huge call the ref missing the strip on Stef. Cost us the game.
Brooks dropping that ball is just, well.....expected.
Bateman had a good game but tried to play for that penalty and then lost the ball. Manly subsequently scored through Saab.
We were a bit unlucky, effort is there
well he’s not the most skilful player going around your halfback right. Isaha let rip with an expletive.How did Brooks not catch that pass.
How does Stef lose that ball when hit by Lionel Richie… he had good game up to that point.
