From the Manly Sea Eagles website, here is the ' Rd 11 Sea Eagles Injury Report' released on Tuesday 21 May 2024:

Matthew Lodge underwent surgery today for a bicep repair. He is expected to return to play 12 weeks post surgery.

Lachlan Croker (Rd 9 vs Canberra) has an associated neck injury from the original concussion that is not conducive to a safe return at this stage.

Tom Trbojevic (Rd 10 vs Dolphins) has commenced rehab on field and in the gym for his hamstring injury.

It's Game Day !!!

Go Manly !!!

[globaleagle]

Gaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaame Daaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay!!!!!

Go Manly Go!!!

 

[Go manly]

Go manly says
Go manly

 

[Stuey Davis’s Socks]

Cmon boys, Let’s go!

 

[The '47ers]

 

[The Wheel]

Need to channel Gifty passion tonight - go Manly

 

[Red Baron]

Go Manly! Good luck Lehi!

 

[NREagle]

I've been a little quiet on here lately. Life has been, let's say, challenging.

So I'd dearly love Manly to give us some good memories tonight.

Be strong defensively, score one or two of those beautiful long range tries, hear the Manly chant from the crowd, and listen to our victory song during the Storm's presser.

Go Manly.

 

[MW66]

I think we will be "up" and be in the contest. My biggest concern is that the Storm have two big, mobile wingers and may expose our outside back defence. Points will be hard earned for us, Storm will spread the ball wide at every opportunity in our half. Concerned!

I think we will get flogged…. But I hope Hoppa has a good game… for the sake of his mental health!

Possible but never underestimate a cold night at Brookie. Go Manly.

 

[Hotspur2014]

If we defend like we did in the second half of the Broncos game we will win it - simples !

 

[Ron E. Gibbs]

The best I can offer is that I don't have a terrible feeling about this game.

Oh, and go, you farkin' Eagles!

Same, nothing horrible yet but i thought we had a Saturday game. Dread might be served with lunch

I just never fancy ourselves against well drilled sides

We have competed with melb quite well in recent showings despite struggling against top 4 teams

Melb struggle to put us away at times. I think our lack of structure frustrates them and I tend to remember some un melbourne like performances against us, particularly poor handling . And its at brookie, and the storm are generally well received by the friday beer crowd

But i picked storm for tips. Hope i lose

 

[Chunkytuna]

Can't wait to get down to Brooky and freeze my arse off on the hill.

Lets FUKEN GOOOOOOOO!!! MAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANNNNNNNLLLLYYY!!!

That's my queen stay strong beautiful

 

[NREagle]

That's my queen stay strong beautiful

Thank you Ry.

If only everyone was as fortunate as me, to have someone like you in their corner.

Helps that we, um, like each other, too 😋 😘

Now, can Manly please get their act together and start winning again!

 

[Eagle 1]

Hughes now in for the Storm. A lot of there supporters are worried that he's still not right and only playing because Munster is out. Guess we'll see.

 

[bob dylan]

I think we will get flogged…. But I hope Hoppa has a good game… for the sake of his mental health!

I think we can match them across the park due to no Munster or Papenhauzen.

Pity Koula is out. (He is the only real strike player in our roster).

Still Harry and Hughes could give us a bath, but surely we can devise a plan to stop them.

Our biggest probelm is our bench, not one of our bench players would make their 17.

Well coaching is probably an even bigger issue.

Manly by 8 if DCE stands up and leads.

Haumole MOM.

No injuries, please.
