[dowdz]

Any chance the test players won't play?

 

[Cliffymagic]

Yep. Cowboys should give thurston and scott a rest , think of the players wellfare cowboys!!

 

[eagleron]

May be too big a game to blood Hynes. Is he ready?

He's a smart kid but Jesus it's a big stage for your first gig

 

[SeaEagleRock8]

Gus is impressed with the Cows and Broncos:

"Only Melbourne in 2008 have finished the home and away season in the NRL scoring more than 30 points a game at home and conceding less than 10, which both the Cowboys and Broncos have done so far this season - that's how well they are going at home."

But he does remember how that season worked out for the Storm, right? 😀

Does Gus note that the Scumos were illegally hording NRL talent at the time ?

Exactly like the boncos are probably doing now

Due to the stupid and unfair TPA rules the Broncos are able to do it legally.

I would be surprised if the cows rested players, the will be champing at the bit to win well against us, trying to grab top spot on the ladder from the donkeys

But if they strain themselves, they'll miss out on their Roos' 20k bonuses

Now that Killer is moving on, is it in Manly's interest to move Walker back to his centre spot and have Killer play out at 5/8 till we sign an experienced 5/8?

Coote? Norman?

Also can anyone step up to be our kicker from next year ?🙄

It does seems strange to announce it so soon

 

[EagleFromMay1967]

If Williame is playing again, lets chance our arm and name him VC.

Coote has resigned with the Cowboys so he's out of the equation.

Love to nab Norman then - piss off the Dalai

 

[Mark from Brisbane]

Exactly like the boncos are probably doing now

But Wheelie you know they are immune from all that salary cap stuff don't you?

Norman would be good. Who ever they get will have to goal kick.

 

[The Who]

Gee. I wonder if Bozo now realises his mistake sacking Gutho, who would be a permanent in Manly's 2017 backline, and the goal kicker.

 

[SeaEagleRock8]

Was it a mistake? we might end up with someone even better.

 

[Pepi]

I bet Bozo is kicking himself we let go of a 80 kg winger who couldn't break through a wet paper bag.

 

[HappilyManly]

Hiku is the real loss - covers fullback to centre 🙁

But Wright may be a real find 🙂

 

[Woodsie]

The forgotten player for Saturday appears to be Green. He has played FG as a centre and winger.
