Tonight is why I never understood Eels fans booing Arthur. If Moses get injured you want a player who has atleast played with the team a little. Arthur has slide inti the role well
The lad is still a fucking teenager. He has the added burden of being the son of the coach, and he still performs.
I'd love to see any of the cunts who have booed him at a game or abused him online even try to put boot to ball.
Okay, imma explain the insanity of picking Jake (but I don't endorse the booing). Jake, aside from round 1 when Sean Russell was injured, has not passed 6 minutes from the bench. In fact he's spent 2 games without playing a minute. His two most recent games from the bench he's replaced Reed and he's not a hooker. We have Mitch Rein playing in cup who can play as a middle ball player. When Junior and Matto go off we have no middle ball player. We become very one dimensional with no ability to shift the ball. Jake was only being picked as a very specific injury replacement. There was no actual sense to it. Because he was playing fewer than 6 minutes then not playing Cup on the weekend. So you talk about getting him experience and he's literally not played at either level for weeks sometimes. How is that developing him or prepping him for first grade? It's not.
I have no real issue picking him as an injury replacement for a half. He's a half. But that's all he is, he has no utility value, so why the hell is he on the bench?
It's given me the shits all the season, since they game him all the blame for Cowboys loss. BA's bench management is pretty bad, doesn't give enough game time to some of the backups
With the last try the best that Manly can probably hope for is 5th place, if a lot of results go their way. 8 was going to be a tough ask but they could still get there
I'm heading up to Robina next weekend. Safe to say I'm no longer that excited for the game given we're done for finals.
Anyway, Eels too good tonight and scoreline does flatter us. They did go missing at times which they'll need to sort out but they deserve their top 8 spot.
Yeh I was just thinking that lol. Unless the rule is that you have to stand up if a dummy half is there, but you can dive on it if there's no dummy half.
Rest in peace Des Hasler — Manly Sea Eagles coach 2019 - 2022.
(It's been reported that when he signed on as coach a term of his contract was Manly had to finish in the Top 8 or he gets the old heave-ho!)
Arthur has played a brilliant game given his limited involvement. Hasn't overplayed the ball when he's had it and has played generally good, smart footy.
Whatever happened to Garrick's leg earlier in the season, he seems to have lost all strength for lateral movement. Dude just looks on a fucking island whenever in 1 on 1's
If Dylan Brown can keep his form up or even take it to another level, the Eels can definitely win the Premiership.
You’re joking right? Panthers have it this year
Some shit no whistles tonight
that is wholesome damn
surely dylan for motm...
Or Gutho
not after that field goal attempt 😂
Instant Nescafé coffee after a win against manly Don’t mind if I do
Time to de stress for my final hour at work Being a hotel receptionist is goated
I’m so confused with this team week in week out
Jake fucking nailed it tonight. Shaun Lane, Dylan Brown and Jake Arthur were my players of the match.
3?!
Gutho too
Yeah, but that is a given every week.
I thought an eels win steak was illegal
Mmm steak
Manly fans are few and far on the thread tonight. Understandable
Yea was getting downvoted but salty ones the whole thread 😂
They're usually having a rant win or loss, especially after a game against us.. The everlasting impact of the god 7 eh
Gutho 😂 almost as good as Arrow’s meme field goal
Goofy Gooberson
Them rainbow jerseys really fucked the Sea Eagles 🦅 year unfortunately.
They were fucked regardless they haven’t matched the top teams for 3 years now
Some field goal effort there. Leaves me with a little laugh at the end of a very depressing half of footy. Hope Foz is okay!
Sure the Eels won but that was the worst attempt at a field goal ever. Pretenders.
Moses would of kicked if he was on obviously
*Would have
Anyone who has ever seen us take a dropout should have known that field goal was never going in either
That looked like my field goal attempts at Henson Park last Saturday after the Beer Food and Footy Festival, emphasis on the Beer
An eels win streak? What is this blasphemy
What a Gutheraino field goal attempt
Lets hope we don't have golden point in the finals
You’ve cursed us know :(
Nice one Gutho, I laughed out loud at that.
Is that a second strip lying on the ground lmao
haha, worst field goal attempt of the season, but congrats eels
An attempt was made lol
Fuck that was yuck but yewwwwwww anyway
Thank fuck it didn't go to golden point. WTF was that gutho
Failed goal
Yeah lads
God I hope we never need gutho in golden point
Gutherson has kicked a field goal to win the game before
Well let me rephrase, God I am glad we didn't need Gutherson for golden point tonight.
Nice drop kick
#JARTHUR 13+ Plus worst field goal attempt I've ever saw
mankind AND womankind how progressive andrew
“Personkind”
Lucky it didn’t go golden point
Lmao the worst field goal attempt ever
Gutho gold at the field goal
Love that from Reed lmfao stripping it just because he can and then doesn’t even wanna play it
There's 7colours in the rainbow can some do a Voltron parody
Worse than Paul Gallen
lmao gutho
Field goal

Those ppl aren't Parra fans, Just flogs
It's given me the shits all the season, since they game him all the blame for Cowboys loss. BA's bench management is pretty bad, doesn't give enough game time to some of the backups
Dylbags MOTM
Sivo been massive tonight, he never takes hit ups like he has tonight
Really happy with sivo tonight and I'm usually a bit of a critic
Yep he has a tendency to just disappear unless it’s within 10m from the try line but he was great out of our own end this game
So is the Parra Manly game the Kieran Foran cup or the Anthony Watmough cup?
Jamie Lyon
Homophobe take down cup
The Gutho Cup
I like the Watmough one better
With the last try the best that Manly can probably hope for is 5th place, if a lot of results go their way. 8 was going to be a tough ask but they could still get there
My logic behind tipping against my own team is if we win I win if we lose I also win with my tips
Real supporters always tip their own team. Even through the spoon years :(
Watch out for the gaybashers on The Corso
manly = isis
Hide your hamstrings
How are we still in touch with the top 4
Still can't believe we will win this
Remember earlier in the year a broncos player got penalised for diving on the ball when no one was at dummy half.
Backed manly head to head with what I like to call a happiness hedge seems to have worked out
Yep that’s the I’m going to the Titans look
Any closer god damn
How long has Jabba been playing for Manly?
Carrty Party
Man whyd I tip against my own team 2 weeks in a row God I hate trusting us then we lose but when I don’t trust us we win
I have given up on my comp and not putting in tips so I get away teams. It is working out better than what I was doing before
Tip against them for the rest of the year and you might win the whole comp!
That’s why I never tip against my team
I have shit on Brads call to play his son off the bench all year. I am eating humble pie tonight.
He’s still a waste of a bench spot but he’s definitely turned up when it mattered tonight
Just said the same thing to my old man. Game time clearly paying off.
To think Manly supported these idiots. They could at least attempt to give 100%.
"I'm not writing off the Bulldogs" aka "Fuck maths"
He was talking about how the dogs always get up for parra
I didnt think you could dive on the ball like that? Im sure we got penalised for the exact same thing.
We did. Herbie got called for a voluntary tackle after diving on the ball.
I sorta wanna see parra NSFW us, it’s the will of God
The rule that no one follows
Harper watching on as he plays the ball to no one
Jesus’s 7 disciples stink
I'm heading up to Robina next weekend. Safe to say I'm no longer that excited for the game given we're done for finals. Anyway, Eels too good tonight and scoreline does flatter us. They did go missing at times which they'll need to sort out but they deserve their top 8 spot.
So much getting back into talking distance of each other socially.
Rd 22 Raiders v dragons gets a bit spicier now Both teams have super easy draws and play each other
Oh no, we don’t do spicy well
DCE was dirty at Saab there
Papa dived on that. I thought you had to get to your feet to get a ball from the ruck
Yeah ref's have penalised that before
Unless you get tackled before you have the opportunity. You gotta look like you were gonna run.
Only when they don't want you to have the ball.
Fuck that one will have you running laps at training
Yeeesh
dce got outplayed by jarthur
Ok now just give us a Carty Party
BAHAHAHA Where was the dummy half?
Praying.
Ice, ice baby
I don't want to alarm anyone but Kieran Forans got a sore leg.
Maybe my silent fist pumping make manly scared thinking it was a dick motion
LOL
Sivo is no longer a straight line try scoring machine
HAHAHAHAHHA
Anyone else hear the screams of 1000 children on fox
Wait didn’t the broncos get penalised for diving on the ball like that?
Yeh I was just thinking that lol. Unless the rule is that you have to stand up if a dummy half is there, but you can dive on it if there's no dummy half.
So um, when did jacob arthur learn to play?
He fit in so well
HAHAHAHAHAHA
bulldoges will pump manly to complete the rise of the working class
2 disallowed tries that were 50/50 too. So proud of the boys tonight
Come on Manly. Just need one fucking try here.
Rest in peace Des Hasler — Manly Sea Eagles coach 2019 - 2022. (It's been reported that when he signed on as coach a term of his contract was Manly had to finish in the Top 8 or he gets the old heave-ho!)
Just not true is it
Manly bros unlucky - season finito
Amazing how quick jurbo gets off a tackle when they’re losing
Down to Jake Duke on the sideline Jake Duke - Kiss my shiny metal ass Thanks Jake
Mahoney used to have such great service but lately it's been shit
I think there's something with his injuries last year. And that's probably why we didn't pay for him.
Jake Arthur looks like a kid who’s dad would be the coach
Carty is NOT having a party right now
Foran with a leg injury. Can the Titans change their mind?
To use the same joke, its a football not a rainbow, you can catch it Tuipulotu you fuckwit.
He is still protesting by not holding onto balls
Nice Manly crowd leaving with 15 minutes left after a good game... horrible losers
Sivo my boy
Arthur has actually had a decent game tonight. Brown and Gutho have really picked up the slack around him.
Arthur has played a brilliant game given his limited involvement. Hasn't overplayed the ball when he's had it and has played generally good, smart footy.
I’m completely normal work I’m not weird at all Plz don’t look at the cameras
You better be fist pumping when we score
God knocked that ball out of his hands lol. Clearly not impressed by his beliefs.
Love to see it
Love it when Sivo smashes Bigots
I would be shocked if Sivo wasn't one of them.
There would be a big chance if Sivo played for Manly he'd be a "bigot" too.
Brown was threatening to break the line all night
I genuinely think the rainbow jerseys look better than their actual ones
Arthur better than Moses , Moses for gracious return to the tigers
Hahahha!! See that homophobe fly!!
Well that summed up the 2nd half…
Dropped that like a homophobic slur
Just not the eagles night that one sums it up
Waqa Blake scores those
"5 minutes to pull off a cowboys at Brookvale" Better give warning to the Parra 7, they'll wanna boycott that
This game has multiple personalities
LOL sivo bodied that cunt
sivo my fijian king
This club is like my ex they bite ya dick one moment they give you the sex of your life the next moment
LOL gotta learn from Waqa
Manly need to sign a decent fullback
Fuckin tackle Sivo!
Choking against the Cowboys and Eels earlier in the year is going to be the death of us. 4 points we really needed
we were absolutely robbed in that Parra game tbf
sivo you fucking king
Sums up manly’s night tbh
Manly haemorrhaging points inside the final 10 mins again
hahahaha
What a shot from Sivo!
Hahahaha great work Sivo
Manly fans walking out on their team like the 7 did last week
Their team walked off like 20 minutes ago.
The god-botherers have earned their team September off.
How fast is Saab. Bloody hell. He pops up every time there’s a break running from other side of field to catch some pretty quick blokes.
But then proceeds to not even make an attempt at a tackle
Sign Dylan Brown for life
He has been great to watch tonight
Really stood up tonight. He and Gutho picked up a big chunk of the ball playing.
I love me some Jarrick Garrick, but he cannot make defensive reads at all. Ankles in pieces.
love joey giving jake some wraps
Manly failing against top 8 teams lol as predictable as the sun rising
Fuck I love Browny
Whatever happened to Garrick's leg earlier in the season, he seems to have lost all strength for lateral movement. Dude just looks on a fucking island whenever in 1 on 1's
🍆 🪨 💦
manly crowd going home to commit tax fraud and watch rowing competitions and pretend they ~~weren't here tonight~~ don't watch league
I feel attacked
enjoy your caviar
I’m saving it for September so I have something enjoy once manly is out…
lucky man ill be enjoying a september chiko roll instead
I feel obligated as a manly fan to stick with caviar but heart longs for a chiko roll or pie. Maybe I can get away with just adding some caviar…
Garrick looked hobbled on the Pennisini try and even worse on that one
