POST GAME Round 5 - Sea Eagles vs Broncos

[Viti]

Also Flegler pushing Fonua Blake? down when he wasn’t even held

 

[Old Mate]

Yeah.

Yeah I seen that, another wrong call.

 

[Bongo]

What about the 40/20 call where the ball clearly bounced on the line?
Play on Manly nothing to see here

Not sure that was inside the 20? Was it?

That was bad. Horrible call

 

[heartly87]

Which ones were incorrect?

milfs 20- 30 kick hit the line. that was a game changer for us as it would of totally changed the momentum, but it was quickly decided that no one saw it and that is that. but it was on the line.

That was a harsh call I agree.

What about when fonua I think it was went for the quick play the ball and didn’t play it at all and somehow manly got the penalty?

Here we all are trying to convince ourselves that Milford ‘wasn’t bad’ tonight and that he ‘looked good’ the handful of times he ran the ball.

Meanwhile, Manly’s million dollar, marquee players are coming up with the match winning plays in both attack and defence.

The gap in quality between them tonight was light years.

Also pretty much bang on, but jeez that call on Boyd's second try was dodgy. Cherry Evans makes a defensive decision to throw his arms into Oates, that was a try every day of the week.

I called no try when it was live - I dont think that's been a try for a long time.

 

[Bongo]

And no captains challenge for it, which got wasted on the braindead Coates block run

I thought bunker can rule on foul play? In any case I think Turbo had an arm in there.

I might be wrong but it appeared they originally penalised AFB for incorrect play the ball but then panicked and changed his mind.

It was a wrong call, but it wasn't why we got caned 12-2 in the penalty count. It's also a pretty understandable error to make.

 

[Super Freak]

They stayed in the game.

That's all I asked for this week. They could have easily crumbled and allowed Manly to blow them away, but they didn't. If a couple of passes went our way, we win.

It's game like these that can turn a season around.

With Pangai back next week, I'll be more confident. Hopefully they can learn from their second half and improve on that. Time will tell.

 

[Donald Garner]

Last 4 games penalty count 31-11.....

How we only received 2 penalties that game ill never know

 

[NSW stables]

Effort was there but:
-klein is absolute scum
-we still stand flat and dont run onto the ball
-our plays did not change from one out hit ups and a kick to coates the WHOLE game.
-5 mins left and we are still passing it to forwards for one out hit ups!
-agressive line speed was working early and for some reason we decided to stop this and return to passive defence with no line speed.
- our defensive structure remains broken out wide (we were lucky manly did not direct their attack there more).
-We seemed to have no set plays other than kick it to the tall kid, pass it to the big kid.
-again, our only tries were individual efforts, no set play.
-we either need a new head coach, or we need both a new defensive and attack coach, because we are shit at both.

 

[Gaz]

Nope. Every fucking time we lose there is bitching about the refs. BHQ isn't unique in that regard mind you. Every club has fans that believes there is some grand conspiracy against them.

There was maybe one or two bad calls made in general play and a video ref call that I disagree with, but as far as bad reffing goes this won't be an especially memorable evening.

Ran the ball and set up two tries.

 

[KnToad]

That's just a bad rule. He called held then half a second later Carrigan had the ball. The rule should allow the ref to give the ball back to Manly without it being a penalty.

It does and that’s what normally happens except when they decide for some strange reason to give a team a penalty right in front of the posts.....

 

[Sasquatch75]

I thought milf was ok tonight and tried last week but was no chance. Thought the 20/40 was a major turning point, took a major chance after being pumped and got screwed.
