Kasey is a known Manly hater - so if she gets our games, we are toast. I remember a NSW Cup game she awarded 17 penalties straight against us in a game. 17 !!
That is a ridiculous amount of penalties but why would she be a Manly hater? And if its apparently known, how is she allowed to ref? Maybe shes just a bad ref.
 
Manly's best two win:loss records are against these two clubs. We'd have a great chance of beating both in a finals match had we jagged one or two more wins.
Yep, I agree but geez we dudded ourselves with some of those losses. Even the Newcastle draw. Nothing we can do about it now. Damn it. Just gotta hope the boys have enough respect for Jake to pull a big one out on Friday. It will be a long walk up the hill to the car if they don't.

The Oldcastle ‘touch football’ draw.

The ‘Let’s not take the two easy points from in front of the posts and lose by one point’ game vs Souths.

The almost unfathomable performance against the Titans at home.

The ‘Oh shoot, the game has actually been going for about 50 minutes!’ performance against the Sharks at home.

A combo of the previous two games, vs the Cowboys.

The ‘One man hit up all night special’ vs the Roosters at the SCG.

The ‘Throw it all to the winds’ game vs Penrith at home.

The ‘Phuck you very much, Mr Referee’ game against an impromptu 14-man Warriors outfit.

I think that covers it.

Yep, I'd say that covers it.

Feledy to debut for Tigers. Matterson replaces Tuilagi on bench. Schuster listed as a reserve.
Matterson in before Shu is a surprise. As is Feledy debut. As is Api at 7. Arthurs could have his hands full with Laurie. This is going to be a very tricky game.

I would expect Schuster to replace Matterson. The inclusion of Matterson, Fainu & Condon will strengthen Blacktown's cause. Apart from others, the Tigers will be missing key forwards Stefano & Bateman.

Oh. I didn't know Bateman wasn't playing. That IS a loss for them.
 
Equally hard to believe the Sharks are 6th and the Raiders are 7th with -119. Goes to show what a lopsided favoured draw can do for a team.
That's one reason I think that both those teams are very much pretenders this year and will get bounced out of the semi-finals rather quickly. If they face each other in the semi's, they may both lose. :giggle:
 
This will be a HIGH scoring game, a shootout where I feel our ammo is a little more dangerous !!
We should absolutely cook their left edge defence and I'm taking Okalatu for 2 tries....Harper should get heaps of opportunity and Koula will be dangerous floating about the park.
Don't wanna get carried away, but throw Saab in for a double also.
