Pre-Game Manly V Sharks [Round 27, 2024]

[davohan123]

At some stage, we will let ourselves down and sh!t the bed. With this team, that is a given. Until then, let’s have as much fun as we can.
The most fun is to win next week and have a home semi final. I vote for that.

Week 2 final for me is a pass mark anything else further is a bonus

I reckon we go with Tolu at the back. Least disruption possible to the backline by keeping Hoppa, Talau and Garrick in the positions they been in all year.

Of course, this is not technically a finals game.... 😜

Pretty sure that's how Seibold will go. Not sure I agree, but it has some force to it.

 

[Dion Johnson]

I personally want Lehi at fullback and Humphreys on the bench, but unfortunately I think this is the team we end up with:

1. Koula
2. Faulalo
3. Talau
4. Garrick
5. Hopoate
6. Brooks
7. DCE
8. Paseka
9. Croker
10. Lodge
11. Olakau'atu
12. Lawton
13. Jake
14. Ben Trbojevic (backs cover you would think)
15. Josh Aloiai
16. Ethan Bullemor
17. Nathan Brown

Think this will be close to it, though won’t be surprised if Sipley gets into the 17, his stats yesterday were very good in NSW cup.

Brooks and DCE have both floated at times on both edges, with Turbo out we may see these two swap edges throughout this game..

1.Koula
2.Garrick
3.Taulau

2.Faulalo

1.Hopoate
2.Garrick

Go hard , get a home semi.

Then a BIG chance of making it to week 2.

From there , you make your own destiny.

 

[WiseyEagle]

Don't forget the X-factor Wardell will be fresh for week 1 of the finals. We all love the 1 or 2 dropped balls unforced errors that he brings to the game.

Sea Eagles Injury news: Tom Trbojevic and Jason Saab

Manly Warringah Sea Eagles can now provide the latest news on the injuries suffered by Tom Trbojevic and Jason Saab in last night's win over the Bulldogs.

www.seaeagles.com.au

They clipped the end off the Saab sentence.

Saab will have scans this afternoon on a high ankle sprain and is expected to miss a couple of weeks, but will be available for selection in the grand final.

Do we rest players …and possibly lose but be fresh for first game of the semis and play away?
OR
Do we have a punt and play our best side.. risk injuries .. but have a chance of a home final at Brookie?

Umm bet with you head not over it !!

Just sayin’

I’ll take option 2 thanks Eddie.
We’ve waited so long for rule changes and a chance of a semi at Brookie.
Especially after the excellent turn outs we’ve had this year…even when we were average.
The faithful deserve it.

If all we get is a home semi it’s a huge thank you to the faithful who have excelled themselves in 2024 by almost selling out the season.

Just asking, if we did make the GF, would you put Saab in and take out a bloke that has helped get you there?

 

[Hibyemama]

If anything, the sharks will rest players. they've got position 4 sewn up.

If I was the Sharks coach that’s exactly what I’d do.

They get a second shot anyway.

I’d rest the stars and do exactly the same as Bellamy did.
