Round 23 Discussion

Lol that's embarrassing..

 

[GCBRONCO]

Have to say that is what Canterbury can be like though, coasting along, and looking like they haven't turned up. Suddenly something goes their way, put on a try in the most arsey fashion and the game changes.

 

[Super Freak]

Lol Manly have no hope winning this game.

They look clueless.

 

[gordjw]

Just well drilled bulldog defence IMO. All those repeat sets and there's a forward (Tolman) there turning to clean up a rebound in the in-goal.

 

[Big Pete]

Koroisau is a livewire from dummy half, but his communication with his playmakers looks non-existent. There were a few times where the play was out the back and Api opted to go to Vave instead. It makes you wonder how the Sea Eagles would be going if Parcell was fit. He strikes me as a team player and doesn't seem to have his own agenda.

The Bulldogs may lead by six points on the scoreboard, but on the field it's as close as anything.

For the Sea Eagles, they need to play both sides of the ruck. They've been favouring their left-side which has made it fairly easy on the Bulldogs defence. If Koroisau can communicate with his play-makers and the Sea Eagles challenge the Bulldogs with some change of angles, I believe they'll burst through.

As for Canterbury, Mbye needs to come into the game. He's been fortunate that the players around him have carried the side, but he's been very poor so far and he's kept the Sea Eagles in this.

How did I leave Jamie Lyon off my most punchable list?

 

[Big Pete]

Like clockwork, Manly go right and score a try.

I think they'll be outclassed, but there's holes in the Bulldogs defensive line. They've had it very easy.

He would just 'retire' from the side anyways.

Ol Torso Try Lyon.

Back to Wee Wah.

 

[GCBRONCO]

On replay looks more likely it was batted back or knocked on

 

[Alec]

Can't believe a fucking shit side like the Bulldogs is in the top 4.

 

[Super Freak]

Well Manly just won't go away, will they?

 

[Super Freak]

You idiot Taufua!

 

[Big Pete]

Gee Manly really lost their way that set.

Are Koroisau and Cherry-Evans on speaking terms?

 

[Super Freak]

How the **** are Manly still in this?

 

[Big Pete]

This is the set for Manly.

Bad kick by Mbye.

 

[Super Freak]

Good thinking Tommy.

 

[Big Pete]

Great pressure from Reynolds.

Was he onside?
