[brad]

Hurry back Dylan walker ffs.

 

[EagleBoi13]

I'm so excited!! go boys! trying not to get hopes up for this season but cant help it lol. GO MANLY!!!

 

[Pepi]

Interestingly our extended bench have all been named in reverse grade, except Brad Parker. Could be a late inclusion?

 

[Nordburg]

Is there a worse bench than that in the NRL?

 

[brad]

Oh please no.

Its funny really isn't it . We have to laugh or we'd cry.

 

[Cameron]

Gees we look such complete side when the great man is on the bench. #lewisIsgod

 

[double hoops]

Yep it's official. More Brown;-(

 

[brad]

Sea Eagles: 1 Tom Trbojevic, 2 Jorge Taufua, 3 Matthew Wright, 4 Brian Kelly, 5 Akuila Uate, 6 Lachlan Croker, 7 Daly Cherry-Evans (c), 8 Addin Fonua-Blake, 9 Apisai Koroisau, 10 Martin Taupau, 11 Joel Thompson, 12 Curtis Sironen, 13 Jake Trbojevic

Interchange: 14 Lewis Brown, 15 Shaun Lane, 16 Frank Winterstein, 17 Kelepi Tanginoa

Reserves: 18 Bradley Parker, 19 Jackson Hastings, 20 Jack Gosiewski, 21 Lloyd Perrett

The reserves look better than our interchange lol. Pressure is on the coaching staff from the get go .

 

[hozza]

Can’t believe Brown has been named. 5 or 6 players ahead of him surely?

I’d have Parker ahead of Wright as well.

Can not wait till kick off!!

 

[Mark from Brisbane]

Well it’s now definitely confirmed , there ARE goat photos!!!

 

[Rusty Cage]

The pack feels more balanced with Thompson, however the bench might be rocking the boat.

 

[Ralphie]

Well it’s now definitely confirmed , there ARE goat photos!!!

It’s just such BS isn’t it. Sack Barrett FFS. This isn’t even a joke......fark me dead 😡

 

[maxta]

The backrower was a given before the team was named prior to games in 2017....
No doubt Thompson was always going to slot into a starting position and a fit Sirro always had the preference also....that's 2 if you take into account the timeout Sirro had through injury.
What I really like is the Improved, more aggressive Lane, Big Tanginoa stepping up after a Massive off season, Goweiski the Rangy backrower is also on par or ahead in the pecking order....times are changing and its all good.

 

[Mark from Brisbane]

I guess regardless that’s our 17 and we have to support them, remember we haven’t been at training and are basing our thoughts mostly on last years performance and a few minutes in a trial.

Who knows , those chosen might be the best options and obviously are in the coaching staffs view.

 

[Chip and Chase]

4 backrowers is a very unbalanced bench. sure Tanginoa and Lane can fill in a bit but they are not genuine props.

Marty and AFB must be going to play huge minutes.

I think Tangles will go OK

 

[Eagles4Life]

That's not the side on the Manly wesbite. Brown in the 14. No Gosie.

Damn you News.com.au. Bastards. Back to normal transmission. http://www.news.com.au/sport/nrl/nr...p/news-story/8e54e600515c6f062d450d8c64d535dc

 

[Bearfax]

I'd have Tom Wright for Matt Wright. Need spark in that backline

 

[Kevinward777]

Farking Brown... if I was one of the many players much more deserving of a bench spot, I would hate the pr1ck. I wonder if he gets embarrassed.

 

[Spartan Eagle]

Brown is now officially my least favourite farking colour!

 

[EagleFlys]

Lewis "XXXXking" Brown.

Nothing new here, nothing more to say really. Mediocrity at its best.
