Tha fuck did I just watch?
Post Match Warriors v Manly - [Round 2, 2025]
- Thread starter mt.wellington
- Start date
She was talking about Tom Ayle in the lead up to the NSW Cup game. I don't want to hammer her personally because she sure doesn't deserve that, but it is pretty important to have a person who actually knows the name of the players and the rules. The NSW Cup build up was really jarring, and I got a massive wave of relief when it switched to Laura and Monty for the main event.
Told you you were all just overreacting.
Vegas can go suck balls! Round 1 and team has not gelled, then 2 weeks sulking and writing the team off. Now I lost my place on the wagon, I'm at the back.
Not 100% sure what you’re saying. Let’s say Pompey didn’t let 2 tries in, we don’t need his ‘magical’ flick pass to seal the game. I have to say, his flick pass wasn’t much, Roger did all the hard work once he got the ball.
Stopping 2 tries>>’setting up’ 1.
A fit Rocco Berry immediately slots in and we adjust.
wets is actually looking in career best form.
Guy will go well this year imo. Looks faster more confident.
Man, life is beautiful when we WIN
Long may it continue…

On the other side, I hope thats not the end of DCE, hell of a way to go out.
I enjoy reading how others see the game. Off the top I can’t think of a slower centre currently. To each their own.
Great win mainly achieved on defensive effort.
Excellent to see the line-speed and we correctly identified we needed to bash their middle to have any chance.
Defensive lapses out-wide are a continued issue and will cost us a win sooner rather than later.
Thought Erin Clark was immense - he's the starting 13, no need to get tricky, major Jazz upgrade.
Metcalf is my avatar, I have always backed him. I don't want to get too negative but I am very concerned about him as a 7. He has an instinct to take off sideways. To put it simply, he will never be a top playmaker if he cannot stop doing that.

Talk this week about a 2 year extension. He's far from done
There have been many times i have cursed DCEs very existence but yeah hope he's OK. Great player.
They are disappointingly measured.
We'll have to hope for a win against the Sharks or Dogs to see a fanbase with true venom. Those Manly folk are gentlemanly buggers.
Time will tell. Sure was a good wounded dog performance with all the right ingredients.
Just got back from the ground. First game my boys have been to. Two very happy kids.
I did confuse them this afternoon. I asked if they wanted to go to the NSW Cup and there might be another game after it. It wasn't until we got on the motorway the younger one and figured it out. If he didn't want to go it would have been too late to call a friend.
The club has got the game day experience down. Builds up the atmosphere, then the team song. Also a nice tribute to Tohu Harris at half time.

It's always a relief getting the first win of the season. Get too many losses to start the season and it can dent the confidence.
A good bounce back tonight.
It looked like it could be a long night with that early try. They looked dangerous out wide a lot. We also managed to scramble well.
It was never going to be perfect. But they improved their go forward, defence and managed to find away over the line.

Maybe we've found the trick: Fill the Fantasy thread of how you're giving Metcalf 1 more week and then he's gone, how Leiataua looks like he's not a keeper and next thing ya know...
Not sure what's better - us winning or Manly looking so average, especially in that first half. If you got points for errors, we'd have been in deep poop at HT.
But that's not The Big News.
The Big News: One Media Mt Smart Stadium has hoored itself and become a Pepsi stadium.
Sellout hoors!
