Inconclusive will be the call from the bunker.

Stag

RTS has gifted everything to Manly so far, he has been terrible on the wing, every point has been scored through his horrendous defence and mistakes.

Well at least they're being consistent. 🙂

Gunner

@Stag co he’s a fullback, not a winger.

Criminal he’s not playing there.

Nothing against CNK, but RTS is just the more dangerous fullback.

Gunner

I think we miss Rocco Berrys defence too, hopefully he got through the reserves game today and is a chance to play NRL next week.

antipodean

@Gunner it's genius level coaching to move a bloke in the twilight of his career onto the wing.

He doesn't move he. Industrious but lacking impact

Stag

@Gunner I totally areee, on the flip side Egan has been outstanding.

As opposed to the very limited Pompey?

I think Berry has been really good in the last couple of seasons and would have him in front of Pompey by a mile.

As I type, the Warriors show a lack of composure on attack and turn it over in great field position.

antipodean

What knock on am I missing? It seems inconclusive means not enough evidence to rule in Warrior's favour.

canefan

I was watching the Canes, I won't risk turning the channel over and jinxing the boys, they need all the good juju they can get

We always get a raw deal

The knock on that went half a metre backwards… that he didn’t even touch.

Come on, it’s pretty straight forward

Gunner

Warriors have got to score here while Manly have a man in the bin, I don’t want this going down to the wire.

This is historically true, but we have benefited from this interpretation tonight too.

This is the Wahs we're talking about right? It always goes unnecessarily down to the wire!

Gunner

That’s an important 2 from Metcalf.

30-16 with 8 to play.

It would appear that reports of the demise of our season were exaggerated...

I'm keeping my expectations very low. Best to underpromise and over deliver where the Wahs are concerned

I was a bit worried your previous comment was you getting your hopes up. 🙂

African Monkey

It's why despite the negative comments about the Wahs, they'll never get the spoon because Mt Smart is still a very hard place to travel for opposition sides. I still don't think they're an 8 side, but they'll always be tough to beat at home.

Gunner

What a difference a week or two makes.

Round one, Warriors were one of the worst performers, Manly were one of, if not the best performer.

Cue Warriors being written off, Manly tipped as title contenders.

Both those theories may well be in play, but either way, gotta turn up every week in this comp or you’ll come second.

canefan

Great to get a win early, inject a little belief and confidence into the team

canefan

I watched the first few minutes and switched over when the Sea Eagles scored their first try LOL

bayimports

Can’t wait to watch replay when I get the chance. Sounds like turbo hammy gone again as well

Roosters beat the Penrith despite some dodgy whistle.
Meme Friday

African Monkey

Gutsy come from behind win for Souths. Wayne Bennett weaving his magic with a l side that looks like a spoon contender if he weren't there.

bayimports

To be fair it was a bludger, St George probably lost that, but you have to give credit to Wayne and biceps Humphries

Enjoyed it myself haha, but agree that the Dragons lost it. They gassed hard in the last 20.

Start working on the CV Toddy

If sharks weren’t failing in a lot of last play options this could be another blowout. Still Cowboys hanging in there somehow

mariner4life

Eels v Tigers

33 mins
12 errors
8 penalties
1 try

Quality stuff. There are two million dollar players on the field as well

bayimports

In ground 40 degrees should not be played

Nepia

For anyone who watched the Chooks how did Marky Mark go? I only watched the highlights and was surprised to see him in the centres,. Looked to be going ok but hard to tell from 10 minutes of highlights.

antipodean

@mariner4life a quadriplegic vs a paraplegic cripple fight

And Turuva makes himself look a complete fluffybunny by carrying on because he scored a try.
