Manly Best in NRL - Middle 3rd

maxta

First Grader
At full strength the biggest advantage this Manly side has, is arguably the most important thing that decides a footy game...the Middle 3rd.
The front rowers Kapow and AFB run rampant in this area and have noticed after smashing down the wall after 25 minutes are adding offloads at will, which completely blows up a defensive line....
The 9's in Api who has been great in 2019 and the young Dynamo in Fainu ask questions all day in that ruck and both defend well....can also bust the line themselves and add huge unpredictability.
The scary addition is the Jake option, who will straighten up and holds the ball in 2 hands as both ball player and running option....with the best weapon in Tom T forever hovering around the middle and timing his support runs to perfection, which has improved again in 2019 and a suspicion Snake has been absolute Gold, with inside tips to the freakishly talented youngster.
To ice the cake - DCE is in Stunning form and has really improved as a leader, is attacking the footy at speed down the middle bringing runners with him....after copping much abuse about his price tag, puts most other halves on big coin to shame.
This is the middle men who can help Manly compete against the very best and have a feeling, this is where they will rightly challenge the heavyweights in the NRL in 2019.
