Extras:

Daly Cherry-Evans

I'd hoped Cherry might get a rest, thought they may have gone with Hunt

 

[HappilyManly]

Well he won't be actually be playing as he is a reserve for injuries.
The Trip away to Brissy may make him appreciate Curl Curl all the more

Hopefully Myles says 'I'm coming to Manly, why don't you stay? I'll deal with any detractors'

 

[The Who]

Good City team named, but how many will pull out? My guess is at least four, allegedly citing an injury.

[Jerry1]

Lets hope we are as well represented in the Kiwi team as well.

 

[HappilyManly]

Problem is that there is a Samoa v Tonga Game on Saturday.

So Lui may also be missing

 

[bones]

New Zealand: Jesse Bromwich, Lewis Brown, Greg Eastwood, Kieran Foran, Tohu Harris, Peta Hiku, Shaun Johnson, Shaun Kenny-Dowall, Thomas Leuluai, Issac Luke, Simon Mannering, Ben Matulino, Sam Moa, Kevin Proctor, Matin Taupau, Roger Tuivasa-Sheck, Manu Vatuvei, Dallin Watene-Zelezniak

 

[HappilyManly]

Jorge made the Tongan side - one game back - hope he is 100% injury free
Brayden Williame made the Fiji side

Reading through all the Teams, I noticed that Mitch Pearce is not listed anywhere - ??

Nor Semi Rad ??

 

[Crusher_Cleal]

When was the last time no Manly player didn't make any of the Australian rep teams?

 

[HoldenV8]

I thought Jake Trbojevic may have been a smokey for the City team but I'm not really surprised to see him miss out.

Danamis Lui will play for Samoa. JSL would also if he wasn't injured.

There is a question mark over Billy Slater's fitness. It might see Dugan moved to FB with Jennings coming in either on the wing or in the centres. Rumour has it that DCE might find himself on the bench for the test at the expense of either Myles or Tamou. David Smith said that the Australian team was 'selected on form'. Considering that Slater, Myles and Lewis have all been out injured I fail to see how form was the selection guide for some players.

Will Peta Hiku play fullback, wing or centre for NZ? I guess that depends on where Kearney plays RTS. No doubt Foran will be the 5/8.

I hope Jorge plays well for Tonga and stays injury free.

Well done to Wiliame on getting selected to play for Fiji. I just hope he finds some form.

 

[HappilyManly]

Rabbids have withdrawn Luke Keary from the Rep weekend, and have gagged him on the reasons why
Don't Clubs have to release Players for these games?

 

[HappilyManly]

Slater ruled out - GI to fullback and Jennings comes in to centre

 

[Eagles2nv]

Rabbids have withdrawn Luke Keary from the Rep weekend, and have gagged him on the reasons why
Don't Clubs have to release Players for these games?

Macquire said he is injured, been carrying an injury that got worse against the raiders.

Apparently the NRL are ok with Keary widthdrawing... Surprise souths are unaccountable.

 

[HappilyManly]

Keary looked really shamefaced at the airport in a moonboot and being ushered away from the Media

He thinks he's a Queenslander but will only be considered for the blues or something.

 

[2830 Eagle]

Good to see not many from the Manly Seagulls

 

[HappilyManly]

Just saw big Richie Faaosa is in the Samoa v Tonga game

Should be a good weekend of Rep games

Stay safe #Birdgang

 

[Mavin]

I might be on my own but I hate rep weekend give me club football every weekend.

We are on a roll I would love to be at Brookie this weekend.

Club football ftw

 

[Mark from Brisbane]

I'm back in Brizvegas for two weeks.

Absolutely pissing down up here and they say between 300-400 Mls due here tomorrow from 4pm to about midnight.

Me thinks there won't be a game at all!!
