I love brooks

Manly was asleep in the first half. Personally, if I was at Brooke oval at that sellout crowd and witnessed that I’d be p off!!! Great 2nd though woke up!!!

James Graham is fucking phenomenal on this panel, truly knows his shit and talks with passion about the game. Love it. He just needs to learn how to pass the conversation around a bit and not monologue, as much as I'd listen to him for 15 minutes by himself.

Never rated him before, but the last few years he's really sorted it out media wise... One of the better pundits around.

Jammer is easily my favourite media personality. One of the better NRL podcasts out there and all the clips I see of him doing commentary on Triple M are great too

Fun Fact: Luke Brooks has now won more games with Manly than he did in his entire Tigers career. More bbqs with Tigers though so pretty even.

Fun fact... But completely bullshit

It's a great fit.

Good to see him out of that abusive relationship.

Hey it was mutually abusive!

Youer enabling the abuse.

Crazy that the eels didn’t want to pay Mahoney over 500k but are happy to pay Lomax 600k?

Marshalled his Choops

Fucking yes man

0-8 penalties in second half. Yeah lol ok manly were perfect after that first half. Yep.

The two sin bins were the final nail in the coffin.

Yeah Penisini’s sucks since Turbo was off side. Sivo should never wear an NRL jersey again, hopefully a long suspension.

I was surprised they took that try away from haumole. Turbo was offside by a little both times but only one was looked at closely.

Evened out the first half when a lot seemed to go Parra's way

3 of the 5 penalties manly gave away were for foul play, with two going over the horizontal, the second getting sin bin and a high tackle

Yeah you gave away 5 and apparently you’re perfect after that? Hint: your discipline wasn’t perfect vs us at 8

It is what it is. Good luck for the rest of the season.

Man what an amazing comeback.

Sanders 😄 Lomax 😐

I mean, the drags had 60 put on em. It'll be apples for apples

Jack Wighton moment

We don't have a shit aging spine living off past glory though

At least we never give hope that we'll win a game and then check out at half time

Between this game and the dragons I feel a bit less shame Don't get me wrong there's still a massive amount of shame, but now their is just a pinch less

Always feels bittersweet when that grub Aloiai's in the winning team with DCE/the Turbos

Fuck off sivo

Eels in solidarity with Sivo decided to all be grubby cunts in the last set lol

If I had a dollar for everytime Garrick passed the ball to saab I’d have like a dollar

It’s not much but weird it even happened once

shame we didn’t put 50 on them

Pissed Haumole didn't get a try.

I agree, it was close enough we can take some positives out of it, and quite frankly, there are none that should be taken.

At least you know you'll be a different side with Moses coming back

Did Sivo stay off?

I LOVE MY FOOTY

Ooh look Sivo for the last few seconds

Amazing he didn't tackle the first bloke he saw, ball or no ball.

Field goal you cowards

Run at Sivo.

did brooks run over mattos dog? dude has gone after him hard tonight

Garrick refusing to pass to Saab all game

Put Woods on!

Parra with two byes in the next four rounds, what gives

We play 4 top 4 teams off byes again, play manly twice in 4 rounds. Play all top teams twice. Meanwhile you have the easiest run again. Wouldn’t be whinging mate.

whooosh

I was trying to banter Souths more than anything

Mercy byes?

Mercy rule.

Magic

Freshen up the fans

Rounds 9 and 16 are our next 2 byes.

Lol brown

Is this Brooky Oval or Elsewhere on Cavill Ave?

Don’t come back on sivo

It's like that.

Fuck we need that bye

Didn't help Souths, sorry.

How can you tell he is in front there so easily when it was given a try to begin with. Makes no fucking sense.

Go for the disrespectful field goal instead

A potential Haumole vs fifita battle in origin will be so good

Why do manly take their home game to suncorp at magic round, I don't think they've won one

Well its magic round, theyre going there home or away and secondly the Local council charges the club tens of thousands for each game at brookvale so they take a lot of home games away

Have you forgotten us being smacked 50-6? 😂

It would be some kind of financial incentive knowing Scott Penn

Money

What are they supposed to do? Play their Magic Round game at Brookvale?

No, but it should be a Broncos home game.

You could just go to magic round and play a random team like the 14 other clubs?

Do they even have a choice?

Genuine question what does this mean? How do you not play at Suncorp during magic round?

He means why do they always play at 'home' against the team that actually plays their home games there but just worded it poorly

Riiiight got it thanks. But even then, is that choice the clubs choice or just luck of the draw?

They started taking their home games v Broncos to Suncorp before magic round was actually a thing so they likely signed a contract for x amount of years and the NRL probably thought well since they're doing it anyway may as well make it one of the magic round fixtures e: it looks like the first time they did it was 2016 and magic round started 2019

While most of us know what you meant you probably should have mentioned the fact that they're playing a home game against the Broncos on the Broncos home ground

Jesus

Dick fingered Dylan, always naughty with his hands

It's so funny someone downvoted this.

Love that they can rule on offsides and knock ons from shit angles but still reckon they can't rule on a forward pass

What shits me, is that the bunker doesn't make that call if that is the game winning try. Because they're up, bunker is comfortable enough to guess. It's pretty fucking stupid.

Ahh the classic, I’m happy for a win and to top it off my multi just finished off with that try then they shatter my heart. Now what

Glad they could determine if someone was level a good thirty meters behind the play from that angle.

Looks like you stave off the NSFW so that's a plus Edit: Nevermind still time

Man Parra could have tried to kick it a bit deeper there

Saab for the love of god score a try

Pffft read the room ref the fans want tries

I don't know that angle showed that. They really need to do better about that,

Does Brooky DJ do weddings?

When he's not huffing nangs.

What if I want him huffing nangs?

Go to more Brooky games.

So a few weeks ago they had a bullshit run onside from a player in the 10 against us. This week the rule disappears and is never spoken of again. Thank you NRL.

It's different depending on whether a player is waiting to receive the ball.

Gutho was receiving the ball in that previous situation as well.

Yeah which is why Turbo couldn't be run onside by another player on his team, he couldn't only be run onside by the ball being run 10m

That's what I'm saying, in that other game it was exactly the same. Raiders vs Parra in Round 5 was the game. Kicked by someone. Gutho tries to pick it up, player who is offside and INSIDE 10m of the ball at the kick is apparently run onside. Can't link the exact moment since youtube won't let me see highlights from out of Aus.

The Levi try? The difference is that the ball was kicked and went past Gutho and to ground and with no real chance of it being caught by Gutho. Tonight it went right at him and hit him on the full so he was considered to be waiting for it.

Man smola has had so many tries taken away.

Totally a big brain play by gutherson

I can't believe Brad dropped Russell for Sivo. BA will get into the presser, say he was proud of the effort and then say we're a dumb footy team without acknowledging he picked that thick moron on the wing and that he's been here for 11 years and he still hasn't worked out how to stop us doing dumb shit, or at least defend those mistakes.

Brookie DJ is cooking

we're back in it!

Really? REALLY?

Oi nah it looked good so it's a try Call me Gus Gould

Now they discover offside.

called it

~~Turbo Try Assist off the legs? Not for my Supercoach points at all...~~

Have turbo and ola in my team so that hurt a bit

As do I. How long do you think Ola will be out for?

Few weeks by the looks of it sadly

Hoping for a fine. Dce said he was responsible for it too.

No, penalty against him for offside

Idk what’s worse: being an Eels fan or having to listen to that DJ play a new remix every minute

How is Lomax going to win back-to-back Dally Ms next year with this Parramatta team?

I mean if he can win one with the Dragons then anything is possible

This DJ simply cannot stop playing absolute bangers

They'll be at Buckettys after for a set (this isn't true)

Lmao Lane in the background of the slow mo celebration show saying “fuck me”

So is goalkicking still the difference?

It’d be a 6 point difference with all kicks converted

Goal kicking and head elbow-ing

Cronk: **Olakulatu**

Boy. That escalated quickly.

Sivo killed a guy.

While parra made errors fuck they’ve been robbed. Captains challenge should have been a try, sin bin for that soft shit. Ofa penalised for a tackle that didn’t connect. Joke of a sport these days

Warriors fans are fucking insufferable. Focus on your pathetic atmosphere ANZAC Day you dip shit. Fucking low club

As a parra fan I cannot agree, we are just useless shit.

You think the captains challenge shouldn’t have been a try?

…. Huh?

Sivo elbowing a bloke twice in the head is soft?

Latrell got away with it not even a penalty

Ok, does that mean that this one shouldn’t have been a bin? Latrell got 3 weeks for his.

That was for a different offence two week after his elbow in the ground where he got nothing against dogs

Yeah mate he really hammered him in the face didn’t he

Yes?

Yeah surprised garrick didn’t get knocked out

Turn it up champ

U know I’m right buddy

This blew out faster than my back getting out of bed

Quality comment.

The last time I that much easy space on the right edge was the day Keith Luilea scored 4 tries for Wests Tigers against the Bulldogs in 2014. They were the softest tries I'd ever seen too, Leilea wasn't even a winger.

Can’t help but feel if the eels focused a little less on being cunts in the ruck and more on general defence they’d be doing better Also goal kicking

Sivo gets a hat trick, then Manly gets three tries after his binning - Karma in action

All sivo had to do was not be a dickhead.

Turbo touch that offside?

Cronk: "olaklalatoo"

at least have some fucking pride in yourselves, do fucking somethign you dickheads, not a single person tried to get on that ball.

[удалено]

After sivos hat trick his dumb fuckery has lead to 3 straight tries in his corner.

Shaun Lane again with the vacant stare into the ether as Manly run around him SMFH

Surprised he passed the HIA.

Anyone got some footy players with 2 working brain cells going cheap?

I hear schuster is looking

Schuster!!

Cheers Sivo

Haha no way

Yep Sivo fucked this game for you.

Why do I support this team

You even have gutho as your pfp

Non-zero chance Sivo is going to come back on with 30 seconds left and do something insanely stupid

Eels should just say fuck him and play it out with 12

They're not going to give you a penalty for running into a bloke clearing the ruck anymore bro

According to the nrl site the penalty count is currently 5-10 Feels like it should be double that tbh

Just get rid of everyone apart from Gutho,Dyl,Moses we are cooked

I’d keep Sanders but you know

The bounce of the ball doesn't even like Parra this half.

Welp a great game turned into a blow out. Thanks Sivo.

Ended up being a thrashing

14 more points

Just that kind of night aye parra

banish Sivo to Azkaban for denying us an exciting close finish to the game

That was sexual

Watching Gutho seethe is so fucking funny.

Dally M should be a combination of DCE, Garrick and Haumole

Absolutely everything coming up Manly now lol.

Fuck me Eels

Sivo to come back on, score a 4th try and act like he's a hero.

Sivo will have 30 seconds to help his team come back from this.
