Game Day: Manly v Knights [Round01,2018]

[Chip and Chase]

Yes the squad has been pared down to 19. Jetski and Cletus playing for Blacktown.

 

[Paw93]

Hastings dropped to regies Fmd.

I'm probably one of the few but I'm happy for Baz to let him play a full game at half in reggies instead of 20 minutes at most in some other position off the bench in first grade.

Parker and Perrett remain on the extended bench. It's possible Barrett is foxing with his selections.

I hope so mate. Parker in for Wright and Perrett in for Brown.

Either Perrett or Parker in for Brown would do me.

 

[Stevo]

Brad Parker is a plodder

 

[ALinda]

Well Matt Wright has a groin strain, which is why DCE is goalkicking, so maybe Wright will be rested and Parker will play....we live in hope anyway

Can’t see much point in playing an injured player when there’s other options.

Is a stream available for this game?

Are you a Telstra mobile customer ( if so they have a free NRL live pass offer).

If not it’s about $50 for the whole season, works with my IPad as well ( bigger screen).

Knights by 16.

Good to have you back mate!!

 

[Rosko]

10 minutes ????
What can he do in 10 minutes ?
win a game ?
save a game ?
What impact will he have ?
Just like his number 14 on his back he just makes up the numbers .
Give some young up and coming player a vote of confidence and see what our future looks like because Brown is past it
Lets move forward Trent . Show some initiative
THERE IS NO LOOKING BACK WHEN YOUR MOVING FORWARD

I agree, but - Winterstein as a bench player is a bigger waste of a spot. Who does he replace? What role does he play? Hope Baz does pull a late change with Parker or Perrett.

Winterstein can play back row and centre . Sirro has played in the halves and any one that has played in the halves can play hooker . This way we have 4 monster forwards on the bench because if the forwards don't go forward our team does not either . That is my game plan instead of having a dud no 14

 

[Rosko]

I think you will be surprised by Lane this year. I was at the Sharks trial and was super impressed with his charge off the back fence. He looks to be finally using his size to his advantage.

From the trials Lane, Perrett and Tanginoa earned a place. Brown did not, but enough said. Winterstein is a poor choice IMHO.

I could only attend one trial game and that was against the Sharks and I thought Winterstein played well . Did you see both the Sharks and Rooster games ?

 

[Rosko]

Hopefully Walker comes back sooner rather than later. Same as Lussick. If the cap issue is over and we get a 5/8, we'd have a total kick-ass side (assume Ben Barba for example):

01. Tom Trbojevic
02. Jorge Taufua
03. Brian Kelly
04. Dylan Walker
05. Akuila Uate
06. Ben Barba
07. Daly Cherry-Evans
08. Darcy Lussick
09. Apisai Koroisou
10. Marty Taupau
11. Joel Thompson
12. Curtis Sironen
13. Jake Trbojevic

14. Lewis Brown
15. Addin Fonua-Blake
16. Lloyd Perrett
17. Kelepi Tanginoa

Yep. 3 grades. Anyway, we can agree to disagree on Frankie, but we need late changes to produce a stronger bench.

If you saw both games then you can make a better assessment than me then.

If Pierce organises them well then those 2 big centers Matu and Toga will have a picnic out there.

 

[Shells Eagles]

Weather update-cloudy and humid. Only light rain overnight - should bra good track if rain stays away

Dangerous players (if they get space) but I have a feeling it will be no picnic playing Manly this year.
