I know they’re only highlights but Flanagan looked good
He’s what we need at halfback if he can just relax and play his natural game
Unpopular comment BUT I think at least he deserves a shot. At least for us to show us he is or is not the way forward. We are already gambling in the halfback role. May as well go all in and test them all

criticism is not disgraceful behaviour
it is when it goes too far and every single post is the same negative bullshit from certain posters on here. we can all have opinions but to death ride players like some do is not on. It is the making the site not a good place to come too, certain posters are just bashing the same players every post, very immature.

Agree, even the 1-1 strip where Herbie got around Okunbur to streak away… where’s the chase? He left it for a forward to try and run him down in Hetherington.
It's about effort plays. You compare staggs effort on holding Burton up. He misread the play and he had no right to be there. But turned and chased hard even with 2 players wrestling in the tackle and was the difference in getting his body underneath.

As long as it isn't abusive and/or personal (e.g. racist/family/looks) I have no issue with fans criticising players. Okunbor is a massive problem atm.

Cricket score coming up for Manly. The selection of Okunbor is bad enough but the fact that we’ve been assigned Cummins again confirms the National Rort League are biased.
We’ve been assigned the Sunday Night 6:15pm game for the 3rd week in a row with more to come in the weeks ahead.

It won't be a cricket score, whoever wins it will be by 6 points or less.

If you haven’t rewatched our last game then do yourself a favour and watch it

Whilst, it’s disappointing to lose, there’s no shame losing when you give it everything

Second time round you will notice the opportunities we created and a better defensive line

There’s so much cause for optimism

TPJ is also a beast very impactful and King the diamond in the rough

I’m not sure why people are giving Manly so much credit when they are prob on par with Tigers as the worst team in the comp at the moment

If you think back to the last time we played, we fielded a shit team and yet still stuck with them more than competitive for 55min

We have a brand new team and enough strike to beat them particularly if our pack aims up again and the backs click

Have some faith Yo
