Des has given away the game plan to start well this week goddam it. Unless he is bluffing and plans to save it all for the second half again??Des this morning
Hasler: Great contest
Coach Des Hasler talks about tackling the Canberra Raiders at Campbelltown Stadium tomorrow and improving their starts to a game.www.seaeagles.com.au
Yeah! But if they don’t score we can’t lose!If we can just score more points than them we might get away with this one
You have succinctly summed up my fears for this game... at least it's not just me I guess...We are probably overdue to lose to the Raiders, and rain historically doesn't seem to suit Manly.
Nevertheless I'm expecting our side to be focused and disciplined and to win what will certainly be a very tough game.
Elliot won’t let anyone down. He’ll take his shot v croker. Siro on that edge stiffens there D up as wellElliot and Garrick together on that right edge worry me. Wighton is a good runner of the ball and I presume Cotric will be on left wing now that Rapana is back. That's a couple of strong runners against a couple of weaker defenders.
Miski on bench intrigues me. Could Des be thinking another last minute switch of Missy for Miski ?? Funa or Garrick to centre and Abbas to wing ?
Taupua would be handy to have, but we can cover him as our middle forward depth is pretty good these days.
Didn’t we beat them down there last year with a few out?It's often these games we kinda expect to lose that we really stand up. On form and team lists you'd think raiders 13 plus but we have a habit of standing tall in the big games and with a 10 day turnaround could really benefit us. A couple big outs in our side but if we are gonna be genuine contenders this year then we need to win these games even without some of our stars.
