MANLY V Penriff -Pre-game discussion

Interesting squad named. Should still win as we beat them in all areas of the game (especially forwards), however, I was just surprised to see Kennedy at second-row (still better than Yeo!!).
 
Kelepi Tanginoa named to play for Blacktown this week, think he will get his chance soon
 
Actually really happy with the side! I think it's the best we could put forward with Origin and injuries. I think Kennedy will certainly be able to fill the role of Brown and Luss will have to pump out some minutes in the middle.

The major thing is our spine and prop rotation is in tact and that gives me confidence.
 
Because none of their games so far have been played on paper. And their coach is crap.
+ their forward pack is mostly shocking in regards to defence/power which hurts the backs performances I suppose. Still overrated

I know everyon hates poo. But Lane ?

I've seen a few reserve grade games and he's been disappointing in every one.

We probably don't have a choice.
I agree. But this is Penny's opportunity to show he is a first grader. He certainly has the build and skills. Now he has the motivation. And if he doesn't fire up we have Tent and that Parra bloke they call the Hulk ready to overtake him in the prop pecking order.
 
Big loss with Jake out. His run meters after contact and hard defence will be missed. Plus no Siro I think we'll struggle to make meters. Taupau was very quiet last week think he's carrying injury. I expect a poor start and we'll struggle to make ground. Penriff by 10.
 
THE Sea Eagles forward depth is being put to the test with Kiwi international Lewis Brown sidelined with a knee injury.

He has undergone minor surgery and is expected to miss two games.

Fellow Sea Eagles backrower Curtis Sironen underwent surgery last week on a torn pectoral and is not due back until the final round of the premiership.

Disagree, our pack should destroy theirs still, remember that our backs are also forwards as well.

Manly by 10-16
