Official Match Day Thread: Roosters V Sea Eagles

[ConGa]

could've give Jmoz his last kick

[zac]

oh well, we were in it right up until the kick off. we needed everything to go right but everything went wrong

[Easts75]

How good was it to have Nate 'The Grape' Butcher back the soft carnt. Manly must have been shitting themselves with his inclusion. He should stick to bible.studies

[The Corner Post]

We’ve breached it once. Doesn’t sound too soft to me.

We weren't exactly testing their defence tonight

[Roostermania]

All I am going to say is CAN OUR PLAYERS HOLD ONTO THE BALL!!! THIS WAS A MISS MATCH our forwards are too small unfortunately!!! We just ran out of players.

These commentators are drooling over Manly....they are not going to do anything!

[Yeception 7]

Something relieving about the weekly pain of this year finally coming to an end

[RoosterBoy]

Glad to see the end if this season. We were never in it.

I welcome the return of some half decent backs. Please keep Marshke, Hutch, Lam, Ikuvalu away from our team.

46 - 4 we won in round 1. 42 - 6 they won last game so we win the johnny mayes trophy

[Tommy Smith]

Let's not be too harsh on Walker.

He's a 19yr old kid who was brought on when the score was 24-4 FFS, one week after winning us a game.

I really don't care that he kicked the ball out at 42-6 with no time left.

[Mickie Lane]

I thought the Chooks were poor tonight but I also thought Manly with DCE, Foran & Turbo were outstanding.They have some weapons Manly & they have the 2 most experienced halves in the game. They have as good a forward pack as the Chooks,
Haumole Olakau'atu was unreal for them & Tom is just lethal, He is soooo good.

If we are harsh on anyone about walker, it is that he wasn’t put on earlier when our kickers were giving manly a 20m restart after every 5th tackle.

I find it interesting that many in the media are already talking about Manly v Souths and Souths in the GF. Write us off at your peril.

Write us off

They have been good most of the time all year playing extended periods - you have a squad of 30 for a reason and the challenge now will be TO keep developing ALL players not only for their own development purposes but for the NRL team as well as you need players putting pressure on players for their positions in NRL

don't let that skeez bloke off the hook
