Pre-Game Manly V Storm [Round 12, 2024]

[Ryan]

At least we wont have Munster doing his fish out of the water impersonations, and his customary trademark niggle thrown in trying to con the refs.

They are sitting second overall mate (as is typical with that team) - he has an absolute right to be arrogant and have a little swagger.

Not saying he doesn't, just pointing out his match day antics and tactics.

Agreed.

Don't get me started on Joey Lussick though fmd.

Jason Saab back for the Storm game!!!!

Jason Saab back for the Storm game!!!!

As is Nathan Brown

 

[Dion Johnson]

Young Hoppa on the extended bench, could be a chance if Koula has a niggle..

 

[Seagles68]

Geez, we look light on in the forwards against this pack and bench. And no Croker again means the middle won't be as tight as it might be.

Not a bad lineup just not happy with the bench apart from Brown!

Looks like Jake will spend time at prop, Bully will go good and Waddell looked better in the middle against the Donkeys.

Yeah, I think that's about the best backline we can muster at the moment but the bench looks very thin, literally and figuratively.

 

[Seagles68]

Yep, I think Waddell's job will be tackle tackle tackle. Jake will do that anyway, right.

 

[stoodamire]

Update on Croker from the club would be nice.

 

[Dan]

Forgive me if I missed this I have been dealing with my first bout of the Spicy cough and work. Didn't Croker get a big knock on the bonce and that's why he was out? Now he is nowhere to be seen. Reckon that could be his career.

We really should have been working to shore up a decent hooker because boy is Lawton not the answer and GCKT has a ways to go too

 

[Seagles68]

Update on Croker from the club would be nice.

There is something there about him having a related neck problem that will delay a return.

Then, next week it will be connected to a shoulder bone issue,
then shoulder bone connected to the back bone issue…

Yeah maybe but hopefully it's something they can rectify for his own wellbeing.

 

[double hoops]

Yep, I think Waddell's job will be tackle tackle tackle. Jake will do that anyway, right.

Can he do anything else?

 

[Seagles68]

Can he do anything else?

Sometimes he runs a good line and he's scored tries from chasing kicks through near the line.

 

[double hoops]

I think I'm more concerned than excited to see Saabs name this week.

Especially after Toff clearly wasn't right when he returned.

 

[The Who]

Interesting to note that Staggs is out of the Brisbane team with a fractured rib. Talau certainly did a job on him.
