NRL Team list: Round 4 v Panthers

Manly Warringah Sea Eagles Coach Des Hasler has named his squad to take on the Penrith Panthers 8.05pm this Thursday at Lottoland.

Other than Boyle in for Sipley ... its the exact same team as last week.

Des is a f@#%&t!

 

[susan]

Boyle back in. We should shorten dramatically in the betting.

 

[Rafferty]

Tof out Boyle in!
suprise, suprise

 

[hozza]

Clearly Des is off his head. Just wow. He’s literally stopped trying.

 

[HoldenV8]

From 40-0 to 0-4.

I'll be surprised if it works out otherwise. Very surprised.

 

[dowdz]

How on Earth can you possibly keep the same team?

 

[Rocky]

I'm not going to watch the game live on TV after seeing this team sheet. I will record it and fast forward through it..stop for the one try Manly will score..then fast forward through the 9 tries the Panthers score. Should take me 5 minutes all up

 

[Rafferty]

You won’t be surprised

 

[kurrieagle]

unbelievable

 

[Shnorky]

Ok i have to ask this about des, and I'm sure others would be thinking the same.
Other than him going senile or doing drugs, is there a chance he is sabotaging our team as pay back for the sh....tfight back in 2011, which he was responsible for of course against the penns. I can think of no other reason this team would continue to be selected, I'd even bet Schuster would be dropped if "wrong way" sirro was back

 

[HoldenV8]

Virtually the exact same team we've had for the past 3 games.

The same team that has been trounced in the past 3 games, scoring an average of 9.33 points per game but has let in an average of 36.66.

And we play the undefeated top of the ladder team......

I seriously don't get what Des is thinking.

 

[Bomb Voyage]

absurd

 

[Ranga]

Weirdly, I am looking forward to seeing how Schuster will go marking Kikau. I've been impressed with his defence so far, but this is an assignment on a completely different level.

 

[Bomb Voyage]

honestly though, what is going on?

 

[Shoe1]

I wonder whether Des had 4 rounds in mind as the period he will give players to perform? Chopping and changing every week isn’t going to work either.

So maybe this week is the last chance for some players? The reserves list has a few alternative players.

Schuster and Kikau won't mark each other as they both play left side of the field in attack

 

[HoldenV8]

The only change from last week is Boyle in for Sipley. And that's a freaking downgrade for crying out loud!!!

What the hell is going on????

 

[Hotspur2014]

Other than Boyle in for Sipley ... its the exact same team as last week.

It’s not April fool’s day today is it ???

 

[Nice Beaver]

That will dead set do me.

How can anyone possible want to keep Hasler as coach?!?!

This is embarrassing and quite frankly, pathetic.
