Many posters in this thread are very confident of a Manly win. I am confident, but cautiously so. The Eels are a good side, have been playing well and have an excellent record at BankWest. Fortuitously, the empty stadium should neutralize their home ground advantage. The make up of the two sides is somewhat similar. I think the Eels have more potent three quarters, but I think we have a tougher pack with more go forward. The main differential, of course, is our x-factor Turbo, but maybe another of our backs will shine on the night. Our goal kicking needs to be on song, as Moses won't miss many (if any). Sea Eagles to win!
Geeze i'm nervous about this one. It is a huge game on so many fronts.
Funny but I get more nervous about the games we are expected to win easily as do many times we don’t , whereas the ones we are expected to lose ( against better opposition ) we almost always win.
Yep, that's exactly why i'm nervous...we all expect them to win this.![]()
