Well after another top defensive game Manly find themselves on the top of the table. This week see them match up with perenial no hopers the Bye. However this may not be the walkover most would expect. In the first 3 rounds this year the bye have gone down in tight ones and acutually have the best defensive record in the comp. The knights were lucky to get home last week on the back of some of the worst refereeing decisions to be made since Tooves got his head stomped through the turf in the 97 grand finals. Unfortunatly for Manly they wont get there injured players back until round 5 against St George. That said i think Monahan is the key. If he can fire again i can see us scraping home. My tip - Manly in a tight one.
Isn't it great to have that confidence in our side back. Last year I would have said manly will lose this one.
