I feel we have had to match up against Melb quite often the week after a loss .

Of course they’ll have their players back when we play them , that’s how they roll.

Just like we saved Schuster for the Parra game over Broncos which almost worked

I actually give Manly a decent chance next week, even without Tom. Our form is better.
Bellamy will pull out all stops to get them fired up, but it won't be easy. Short turn-around, and down on confidence and troops.

And, this may be wishful thinking, but his decision to go on one more year may have had a deflating effect, oddly. If he was finishing up as many thought, there was the incentive to 'climb the mountain one more time' for the legendary coach, and also for the departing champion players. Suddenly they don't have that.

Also B Smith is a dickhead, I don't think that is helping their cause right now. Munster is good but can't do it all on his own.
