Basically it's a Marshall love fest - They can carve us up with speed & attacking flair. The Wonderful attacking tigers etc etc.
Tip - Manly!!!

Load of bollocks sorry.
 
At the bottom of the article they list the men who will most determine the outcome of this game -

Match officials: Referees – Jason Robinson & Ashley Klein; Touch Judges – Paul Holland & Ricky MacFarlane; Video Ref – Sean Hampstead.
 
The entire article is based on a huge proviso of "IF" Benji is on song. If he is not Manly will carve them up in absolutely every facet of the game. Based on this season, there is only a 50:50 chance that Benji will no on song. I can't see anyone else in that side that has the potential to outplay their opposite number. Their best players are Benji, who comes up against Foran, Lawrence, who will probably be the 3rd best centre on the park behind Lyon and Matai (and would even fall behind Hopoate who won't be in the centres) and maybe Heighington who isn't close to Stewart or Watmough. Manly could potentially rack up a cricket score if they play to their abilities. If they don't, they should still win comfortably.
