Game Day: Manly v Roosters [Round 4, 2016]

[Jerry1]

lol at sticky. He will be spewing..

 

[Mark from Brisbane]

That is still a strong side. Stronger than the Rorters.

We hope!!

 

[davohan123]

we have warmed up all together not once have we separated so far
Man snake up close looks very fit

 

[HoldenV8]

Such optimism around here.....

We may have some changes to the side but its not like the guys out have been replaced by mugs. Burgess maybe, but that's it.

 

[Mark from Brisbane]

Oh well, let's see what our reserves can do, who knows they might surprise!

 

[HoldenV8]

lol at sticky. He will be spewing..

Frank Paul will be looking for a locker to hide in when he gets off the field. Sticky might find him hiding in the can lol.

Yep , it's him, but I guess the only other choices are Knight ( suspended ) and Fonua Blake ( perhaps not yet approved ).

When you look at it like that then I suppose what other choice do we have.

Our depth is , well, very very limited!!

Have you walked passed Mateo - the Sun gets blocked out

Make sure that Ferris wears his headgear!

Team changes aside, it's the 5 day turn around that bothers me. F.cken outrageous that this is allowed to happen twice in a row - 3 games in 10 days. No side this year has won on the 5 day turnaround. The roosters have had 8 days to prepare. That's why I don't see us winning tonight. You just can't give away that massive physical advantage in the modern game.

Gaz is tipping us

 

[Mark from Brisbane]

Just for the record.....

Lewis Brown has played 10 tests for NZ. Six of those from the bench, four playing in the centres (no tries, his only test try was from the bench against Australia in the 2014 Four Nations opening game). And of his 153 first grade games, 39 have been in the centres. He's also scored 10 of his 30 tries in the centres.

I think the 2GB guys hit the nail on the head about T-Red and Skivy not playing due to soreness. The club isn't saying anything.

What nail was that ??

Second time within a week, what's the world coming to?

 

[Clay]

Surely we have a better reserve centre then Brown.
It's shaping as a real danger game, especially with Burgess back

Watching him laughing and joking after the game with opp players.........unbelievable....see if he's still laughing when Ricky gets hold of him!
....that's got to be one of the dumbest things I've seen a player do at that point in the game.

 

[Loobs]

Can Satini not fill in? Brown isn't a great centre.

 

[HoldenV8]

Can Satini not fill in? Brown isn't a great centre.

So you would rather a guy with limited first grade experience (1 game) over a guy who has played 4 tests in the centres for New Zealand?

 

[torana355]

This game has ambush written all over it. God i hope im wrong!

 

[Loobs]

These games you should win when you've got a reshuffled squad against a team that at some point will turn it around - worry me.

Yeah I was confident until I saw the double B's

 

[HappilyManly]

Ferris has his headgear - we mean business

Maaaaanly, Maaaanly!
