Worst 1-7 in living memory on paper. Will be interesting

 

[SeaEagleRock8]

On paper, yes! But the 8-17 isn't too shabby, that is where we'll need to win the game.

Perspective time ....
names on paper is not what wins games but players that their coach has them playing above their weight do

Jake names captain - here from the skipper

The journo that posted that video mentioned that Napa seemed to be moving gingerly at different stages and is less likely to play. Foran was yet to complete any sort of contact work - Interesting to see if they play. Obviously a boost for them if they do!

Only because they're not on Brookie grass

NRL .COM Kimmorley has tipped the Bulldogs .

He has tipped against us again

Again we will prove him wrong

That man is an idiot, continually denying evidence that contradicts his distorted viewpoint

 

[Bearfax]

Kimmorley just has a gripe against Manly because he was a failure whilst with us at the Northern Eagles. No doubt blames us for his poor form that lost him his test cap and then with the demise of Northern Eagles missed out on the final year of his contract. He's a Newcastle man with a love of the Storm and I suspect an underlying love of the Bears

 

[manlyfan76]

Well noddy can move to Bexley with all of the other dogs.

 

[Tragic Eagle]

He can keep tipping against because we keep winning!

Noddy came to us on big money and he did not deliver and the rest is history

You do wonder if the dogs are rushing Foz back because we are vulnerable with a few players out.

Knowing his history, you have to wonder if he will make it through a game.

Nah!
I reckon Des has done a deal with him to keep tipping against us to rev up our troops

 

[Chip and Chase]

Garrick marking Okenbor might get ugly. His defence has been ordinary at times and Okenbor is a big unit (doesn't have a lot of game sense though). That is also Rhyse Martins side of the field and he is a good ball player so Suli and Garrick will see some action I reckon. Maybe they spot up Miski on Okenbor

I think its just mind games why rush him back.. at least i hope so he was in fine form before he was injured

He'd still pass the intoddgrity eye test.
