PRE-GAME DISCUSSION: Manly v Penrith [Round 12, 2020]

[40 nil]

Don't know why Jack is out (injured?), but the bench looks stronger without him. From what the Manly physio said last week, I think it is unlikely Dylan will play this week (edit: unless someone in the 17 is injured). If Cust plays well again, perhaps Des will consider shuffling the back line to keep him in the starting side for the Warriors game?

 

[Mataiforever]

Highly doubt Des would be silly enough to put him there given the fitness required and the fact he’s been out for so long.Not exactly the best place to play when you’re easing your way back into action

Maybe not straight away, I like easing him into the 14 too. Just think for the remaining games until Tom is out he is our best option, far better than ELliott. I agree on the fitness point but, could be good to ease him in off the bench for a week or two. He did have a whole pre-season but

 

[Mataiforever]

If DW is fit, Cust to start at 6, DW on the bench given he will be underdone. When it is time for Levi to have a spell, put Cust to 9 and DW to 6.

DW to 14, come on for Elliott and keep Cust at 6. Levi can play a game or two for 80 mins.

 

[Will on the hill]

Penrith are playing simple, high % football, if we can match them in completions, penalties and set restarts, we are a good chance of knocking them off.

 

[Will on the hill]

DW to 14, come on for Elliott and keep Cust at 6. Levi can play a game or two for 80 mins.

Levi looks like he has had a leg cut off once he hits 50 min, don't see him pushing out a quality 80 anytime soon.

 

[Ranga]

DW to 14, come on for Elliott and keep Cust at 6. Levi can play a game or two for 80 mins.

I’m not so sure of DW at fullback... in attack, I’d love to see how DCE would go At the back but it won’t happen. He is bloody quick and support play unreal.

 

[BOZO]

Good looking side. We should win this one if we’re switched on.

We are coming off the back of a couple of good wins and we are on a roll and the pinks wont stop our momentum at Lottoland

 

[BOZO]

If Dylan is to play. Which is the weakest spot that we have in our back line that he needs to fill ?
Over to you ....

 

[Tragic Eagle]

First game back on the bench for Croker.

 

[Eaglehauser]

Walker will be eased in at 14 and when Levi comes off either Cust moves there with Walkz to 5/8 or Des uses Walkz at Dummy half if Cust is going well.

 

[mave]

Good to see we have avoided Horsehead in the bunker

And managed to pull the two idiots that gave Blake the stripping try decision.

Oh joy.

 

[frank stokes]

Personally I think that this is the strongest forward rotation that we have put on the field all year... I could potentially swap Paseka for Boyle but I think both have even impact (boyle slightly better but more upside for paseka development wise)... I know waddell hasn't 'fired' yet (and occasional bad tackle attempt) but I still have him in my best 17...

 

[Dion Johnson]

Looking forward to see how Suli against Crichton turns out.

 

[Pittwater Legend]

I reckon we’ll win this one by 1-12

Don’t tell Penrith, but timana Tahu on over the black dot (NI TV) dissected the poor ability of the panthers to chase kicks and breaks. He thinks manly will exploit this on the weekend. He contrasted it with how well manly scrambled in defence to shut down the hammer break and the next play v Cowboys.
