Ballin will get to show us if he can play 80 minutes, could be a showing of what we might see in 2010.

Manly's difficult season start has suffered another setback with hooker Heath L'Estrange struck down with an ankle injury at training.
L'Estrange fell to the ground during a training drill clutching his right leg and screaming in pain.
Concerned Manly officials immediately rushed to his aid and demanded all television cameras be turned off. The extent of the injury is not yet known.
L'Estrange has been in great form coming off the bench since joining the club last year and is off contract at the end of 2009.
The Sea Eagles have only won three of their first nine matches in their title defence and are already without star Brett Stewart, with a knee injury likely to keep him out for two more months.
