The Tip Sheet - 2024 Ep 38: Manic Plays & Missed Tackles, The Key Moments That Cost Parra

The Parramatta Eels had the Manly Sea Eagles on the ropes in Round 8 before a series of individual lapses from missed tackles to outright manic moments with Maika Sivo losing the plot. Sixties and Forty20 review an extremely frustrating loss in which the Eels had the game plan and had the momentum to spring the upset save for the above indiscretions and miscued goal-kicking. Manly's early shifts were nullified and their speedsters on the edges contained as the Eels executed the gameplan in the first half - so what went wrong in the second stanza? The boys call out the individuals who opened the door for Manly. How did Ethan Sanders fare in his debut? Pretty damn well as it turns out. Sixties and Forty20 laud the young playermaker's efforts at Brookvale - even if he got a welcome to the NRL moment care of Haumole Olakau'atu.
