Spotty Herbert Posted September 17 Share Posted September 17 Sad for Josh Morris as he shouldn't have to finish this way, but its been a game too far for the Roosters. To be fair, if Patrick Herbert hadn't had a brain freeze last week they wouldn't have been humiliated today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DavidM Posted September 17 Share Posted September 17 Turbo is the best player on the planet , unbelievable this season and he started after everyone else . Can he win the premiership for Manly ? Melbourne held him but he may get another chance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farmduck Posted September 18 Author Share Posted September 18 If Manly go through to the GF, Tom Turbo might end up in another rare category - only 2 players have scored more than 30 tries in a season. He's on 27 now from 17 games. Still no match for Dave Brown, Easts centre from the 1930s who scored 38 tries in 1935 - and he only played 16 games. In 1954, Newtown winger Ray Preston scored 34 tries. I don't know how many games he played but he only missed out on a try in 4 games out of the 21 Newtown played. Maybe he was injured.

Farmduck Posted September 18 Author Share Posted September 18 I tipped Panthers but I wouldn't be surprised if the Earls won. The Fox League poll shows 67% expecting a Parra win. I live halfway between Parra and Penrith so I can probably claim some vicarious glory no matter what the result. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

unapologetic pedant Posted September 18 Share Posted September 18 Parra`s successful challenge against Ashley`s phantom knock-on call early in the game perfectly illustrates how the rule is currently refereed. Any doubt, any hint of a fumble = Knock-on. Every ref in Oz would have called that as a knock-on, and in all non-NRL games it would go unchallenged.

unapologetic pedant Posted September 18 Share Posted September 18 On balance, Panthers want to play more football. Don`t think it will be good for next week if the Eels win this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
