2024 Round 9 v Sea Eagles: Game Day

[President Clinton]

Anthony Seibold wont get a wink of **** sleep tonight
hahah... goodness me, this football team have won some stupid **** games in it's time... that's up there


Up the **** milk.

He was sweating bullets up there!

[dubby]

But Ricky can’t coach still right?

Nah.

Crotic, whitehead, strange, savage, young better game in patches, but all performed well, weekes needs goal kicking practice if he needs tat in the tight games..

[Regs Revolution]

Let’s ******** go!!!!!

Say what you wanna say! What a ******* win!!!!

[gangrenous]

That was really fun! That’s football!

[President Clinton]

I was worried Atkins would give a penalty for the voluntary tackle. He's a disgrace. Disgraceful refereeing tonight

If ever there was a case for voluntary tackle that was it. Very dumb play from Young and lucky to not be penalised for sure

That should have been a penalty to Manly in front of the sticks.

We didn't win from coaching, I'll give you the tip.

Sticky may or may not be able to coach, but I wouldn't be holding tonight's game up as a beacon of his coaching awesomeness.

[BJ]

Is Hudson the dumbest player in the game?

[myanonymoususername]

Amazing tactical game - the reverse fade!

[-TW-]

Manly brown sheets is glorious

Massive shoutout to Kaeo Weekes - he was massive for us tonight. Only one bad kick and he turned it into a forced dropout - stuck to his strengths after an early error and was critical in getting the victory.

Against his former team too! What a team song this will be.

100% - it was shocking both ways. Was making it impossible for the defensive team to win back momentum. Glad we were on the winning team in the end but he was woeful.

First Half = Guler. Second Half = Mooney. Clear difference in performance comparison between those two front rowers. Just saying.

Hahahaha apparently when we were losing it’s because of the players aren’t as good as Manly, but when we’ve won playing absolutely adlib, poorly structured football, it’s because he’s a good coach

Best thing about that half was dubby disappeared somewhere, but he slunk back in right on fulltime

[samvucago]

That is quite possibly both the worst and the best win in NRL history.

I second this.
Worst Raiders victory ever.

LOL. GH experts.

I genuinely don’t remember laughing as much in a game of football, my wife thought I was mad

Highly enjoyable win, won completely on guts and not much more in poor conditions

[El_Capitano]

Great win!

I be watching that raiders victory on replay again and again, just so it sinks in...

[LimeGreenMachine]

Young was great , Starling came on and change the energy. Whitehead was there to score 2 tries and set one up.
Our defence in the 2nd half was strong and the ref stopped giving them a leg up every set

[Greentothecore]

That is twice now that Strange has pulled of big plays to win games at the death

[Elcaptcroker]

After all the times ive seen DCe's long nec smirking aftet a last minute win against us, its good to be on thr other foot

Tactics aside?
It was all Ricky

[The Nickman]

Winning a game with a big play is what Hudson Young used to do quite regularly

It’s good to see

[Botman]

I reckon you blokes are kidding yourselves re: refereeing

I don’t understand why some hip drops are a sin bin and others that appear the same are not

But we’ve been **** pests in the ruck all game. Pushing it to the very limits trying to slop this game up and keep it tight
We’ve earned most the penalties given against us imo

Agree with the pig. Rule 72. Wrap it up.

I can’t even be critical of it
It’s almost certainly the plan going in and I think it’s the right plan!

Our best bet to win this is an ugly, slow, sloppy game and the refs let the ruck get silly. Maybe we’ll wear the refs down in the 2nd 40 here and limit the scoreboard damage

Well it **** worked. They dragged these pricks into the mud and slop and beat em with expeirence. Hats off to em

My wife just compared me to the guy in National Lampoons when he breaks out the chainsaw because i am cackling like a loon
Thats the funniest **** i've seen in ages.

I will never understand players doing stupid **** like this. Or pushing it with ultra ultra slow play. You are at GREATER risk of losing through your **** stupid shenanigans.

Good story

[Dr Zaius]

Honestly, the highlights should be watched with Yakety Sax playing.

[Hong Kong Raider]

Strange and Weekes have something. Both are not game managers, but love their confidence. Both backed themselves and can play off the cuff. Love what Timoko provides

Mooney was physical and had his best game this year. Need to get him more angry. Much better than what Guler and Saulo provide

Kudos to Whitehead and Cotric. Both had good games

Hahahaha dubby spent the whole first half telling all and sundry that the players just weren’t good enough and they could never compete with the likes of Manly, then he slinked off somewhere for the second half and then came strutting back in at fulltime like he was right all along

Fantastic scenes *chef’s kiss*

actually, I thought that was one of the rules changed this year. You could do a voluntary tackle, and even if nobody laid a hand on you, it wasn't a penalty.

Interestingly he was giving Manly time after the "tackle" - not sure what for though....

[Green Blogger]

The best thing about this game is the confidence boost that Weekes and Strange will take out of it.
