I’ve been delayed ( got some new tyres put on today in Darwin) from heading into the wilderness so will be in Kununurra WA on Saturday arvo and will be able to watch the game and comment on ST before heading out into the great unknown on Sunday.

Well it’s not exactly unknown, but it certainly is remote!

Think fish , think a LOT of fish, think BIG fish........well hopefully.

How do they get the fish inland?

They swim , up rivers!!

Bloody hell, must be all skin and bones after that effort!

 

[globaleagle]

Sheesh, get yer fishing gunk out of here, murderers!

So Sam Burgess is back for our game. It always feels like opposition teams get their good players back when playing us.

It's probably not the case though, just one of those things.

 

[Briza]

We've named a bloody good side, no excuses this week.
Looking at it though even if API starts and fainu replaces Elliot it on the bench it's all players with potential.
We need one real Gun on the bench to be right up there.

Isn't Api still out for a few weeks recovering from ankle surgery?

Thought api was another month away

 

[PONTIAN SEA EAGLE]

seriously noddy must have no confidence in this team take the imbecile off nrl.com.

 

[mickqld]

Seems Des prefers Suli over Parker at this stage and Cust over Croker but a loss or 2 may see that change. Interesting period now where the contenders show their form. Next 3 games are a great test of where we are at barring any SOO injuries.

Yes he's out for another few weeks, I meant at full strength (API starting) our bench is all promise and short of an experienced hard nut.

Ah, I get it. Sorry.

The team need to watch that come from behind win in the semi against souff$ from a few years ago.
Spine tingling.

Manly need to overcome their Olympic Stadium hoodoo to beat @SSFCRABBITOHS on Saturday. They’ve lost their last 8 at the venue stretching back to 2013
