[tookey]

Winterstein and Hodkinson again

Barrett will no doubt put them in in the last 15 minutes again

 

[The Who]

Jetski hasn't been picked in Reserve grade. That either means he is still injured or that he will be in our top 17.

 

[Volley]

Winterstein and Hodkinson again

Barrett will no doubt put them in in the last 15 minutes again

Probably won’t matter this week, Cronulla will be cruising by then.

Another week, yet another loss!!

Hard to see it any other way!!

 

[Moops]

We DO seem to play well against Cronulla, if that helps?!

 

[BOZO]

We DO seem to play well against Cronulla, if that helps?!

We seemed to play well against the Roosters at home . Up until 2 weeks ago the Roosters have not had a good record against us . 2 weeks a go they had a field day scoring 10 tires . As of last week , we have lost 12 matches in a row . Six away and six at home . My observation is , our team under this coaching staff has forgotten how to win .
As usual i have tipped my team Manly in the Silvertails tipping comp .
As usual I will renew my club member ship
and as usual unsuccessful coaches are sooner or later shown the exit door .

 

[highlandeagle]

Bench should be Tapau, Sipley, Kelepi and Tom Wright. Winterstein and Hodko both out. Put Tom the klutz in reggies for a week. Won't happen though. Barrett coaching his way to our first spoon.

 

[HoldenV8]

For mine.....

One of Parker or Suli should be playing for Blacktown (preferably Parker) with the other (preferably Suli) on the NRL wing. Kelly and Walker should be our centres, Hodko the 5/8 or half with DCE in the other position.

Saturday showed that AFB and Kapow should be split. We start off great (usually) with both of them, but when they go off our go forward and defence up the middle dies away other than Jake. Kapow off the bench against Penrith allowed us to keep up the go forward.

Winterstein.....smh at his continued selection.

Barrett's team selection confused me in Round 1 of 2016 and they continue to confuse in Round 21, 2018. If I was a Penrith fan I would be afraid.....very afraid.....that the rumours of Barrett and Cartwright going back there are true.

Still, its only Wednesday morning I guess.....

Sharks at home is always tough. It will be like this:

1. Easts will beat North Qld by 18 points.
2. Slimes will beat the Titans by 12 points.
3. We will get flogged by 30 points.

We will then be stone motherless last

So we are stone motherless last but equal last on 12 comp points?

How does that work? Parra booted out? Actually sounds pretty good.

Even F/A means we are 15th
Cows -118
Manly -123
Parra -128

The team I would have gone with this week would have been:

FB - Tom Trbojevic
WG - Jorge Taufua
CE - Dylan Walker
CE - Brian Kelly
WG - Moses Suli
FE - Daly Cherry-Evans
HB - Trent Hodkinson
PR - Taniela Paseka
HK - Manese Fainu
PR - Martin Taupau
SR - Joel Thompson
SR - Shaun Lane
LK - Jake Trbojevic

Bench - Tom Wright, Addin Fonua-Blake, Kelepi Tanginoa, Toafofoa Sipley.

Unfortunately though, under Barrett we're going to continue with 3 centres, one half, another half covering hooker off the bench, a winger with two left feet and a bench back rower who's work rate would make Norm from the old Life Be In It ads look like a workaholic.

Is it any wonder we look piss poor most times with only one play maker and a running fullback who is forced to forgo his straight running and act like an extra play maker?

 

[Mark from Brisbane]

Do ANY of you on here give us even a fleeting chance??

 

[nightster]

Do ANY of you on here give us even a fleeting chance??

fleeting yes but it would be a boilover ... I can't believe I am saying this

 

[nightster]

I wouldn't mind

FB - Tom Trbojevic
WG - Jorge Taufua
CE - Tom Wright
CE - Brian Kelly
WG - Moses Suli
FE - Daly Cherry-Evans
HB - Dylan Walker
PR - Taniela Paseka
HK - Manese Fainu
PR - Martin Taupau
SR - Joel Thompson
SR - Shaun Lane
LK - Jake Trbojevic

Bench - Trent Hodgkinson, Addin Fonua-Blake, Kelepi Tanginoa, Toafofoa Sipley.

but I would not be taking off the number 9 like last week !!!!

 

[manly al]

Usually go well against the Sharkies at either home or away . Still a good Manly side on paper , if they can keep some reasonable confidence level up , i reckon they can go O K and winning can still be well on the cards

 

[Woodsie]

Do ANY of you on here give us even a fleeting chance??

We will flog the miserable mutts!

 

[Ned]

We will flog the miserable mutts!

Dogs game is next week Woodsie

 

[The Who]

Do ANY of you on here give us even a fleeting chance??

Yep. But we need to be leading by at least 24 points with 13 minutes to play.
