RE: Manly v Raiders Rd 9 teams

On paper and at Brookie we should give them a pasting, but bigger upsets have happened.

 

[Mark from Brisbane]

RE: Manly v Raiders Rd 9 teams

Foran and King picked......what about injury's

 

[WAMF]

RE: Manly v Raiders Rd 9 teams

The Raiders will have a few more then us backing up.
Dugan, Thompson, Harrison and Learoyd-Lahrs.

I'd say Buttriss will start and Tongue will move from hooker to lock.

I have heard that king is unlikely to play and that foran is 50/50. Robinson will come onto the bench if king is injured and wolfman will come onto the wing if foran is out with a reshuffle in the backline

RE: Manly v Raiders Rd 9 teams

Gee, Darcy Lussick must be struggling if he can't get into the top 20. I thought he was going be be our next champion backrower. Anyone know how he's going in NSW Cup?

nah mate
if you noticed all our gun players under 20 dont play toyota cup they play in the NSW Cup

Pretty smart move by des the toyota cup isnt a real good stepping stone for NRL espeically for Forwards

RE: Manly v Raiders Rd 9 teams

love to see tim robinson back in the team, huge potential. anyone know how long hes signed up for?

 

[Copa Eagle]

RE: Manly v Raiders Rd 9 teams

Tim robinson is signed up for 1 year, id much rather him than Vic Mauro, no offence to Vic, i just see more agro in Robinson, the roosters game he made like 25 tackles in a space of 20 minutes

the only players in the Full time squad who who are eligible to play Toyota Cup are Hopoate & Riccardi.

Riccardi plays NSW Cup.

Sione Ala and Beau Bovis both have been used to fill up the NSW Cup team when they hae been short. They were selected from the players that missed selection in the Toyota Cup team that week.

All the regular NSW Cup forwards are U21 or older.

Maybe as the season progresses and the Toyota Cup team cant make the 8, it would make sense to use the better Toyota Cup players.

From what I hear he is going well, players player last week and he's scored 4 tries against the dogs. Both Des and Peters have talked him up yet he can't crack a game. I'd rather see T Rex spend a week or two in NSW cup to see how Lussick goes.

Bugger it!... NSW could have used him.

It helps Manly's cause on Monday night but that's a blow to the Blues.

It will be interesting to see & hear the reception Matt Orford gets when he runs out. I can't help but feel sorry for him.... to think that only 2 & a half years ago he was on top of the Rugby League world and now he plays for a side that's lost 7 straight and the fan's are keying his car in anger.

 

[PONTIAN SEA EAGLE]

RE: Manly v Raiders Rd 9 teams

Just had a look at the ladder we could be 4th if we beat canberra by more than 10 points or so.

 

[Berkeley_Eagle]

RE: Manly v Raiders Rd 9 teams

Yep and the Raiders will be 4pts clear in last too

 

[Ralphie]

RE: Manly v Raiders Rd 9 teams

The next two weeks are against two extremely desperate teams who are far more capable than their position on the ladder suggests.

RE: Manly v Raiders Rd 9 teams

we need to be careful with this game
