I would've been happy to see Suli at #3 and coming back inside off Foran passes that were feigned for Tom or Schu. However Parker's defense will be needed out there tonight.

Olam out in the centres is my worry. He made mince meat out of Ramien (who I consider a bloody good defensive centre). It’s got to be legs tackles all night, the bastard is so strong he’ll just swat them away if they go up top first.

Olam has both power and pace to be a game breaker . He is a good player indeed

Fair enough I don't really see $5 on a multi as much of an issue

I might have a go tonight. I don’t usually gamble, but it’s a semi-final, so it’ll just add some more excitement to the night. I haven’t been in a TAB for that long, I’ll just ask someone who looks like they know what they’re doing for instructions. The daughters keen. But she only wants one bet. Of course Foz anytime scorer.
** Hey @Dan , is there a minimum/maximum players you can bet on as anytime scorer?

We hang on to our balls and we win

Bugger your balls, I just want the win!

Not one of my concerns, Lionel and Wasaabi had his measure last time. Small, fast guys thru our middle is my biggest concern.

I’m feeling for Croker. He really deserved to play tonight as he has been a big part of how we have gone this season. Hopefully he recovers in time for the grand final qualifier.

Also if I read any carnt unfairly talk down Parker or Croker then I will slap that fark about the head many times. This Manly side has comfortably been the most prolific Manly side ever in attack and these two played their role in that side well

Not sure I've never tried to max it out, inside a multi you need them all to score though as you're stacking the odds

 

[KOMORI]

He’d be sent off for that in today’s game

Should have been ****ing sent off in that game too…

Yes he deserves his spot. We all know how hard he has worked for it. But that applies to all of the current seventeen, and also some just outside of it. This season we have seen so many players come in because of injury, and really take the opportunity that was presented to them. We will see the same from Lawton tonight. I think we see Karl play an outstanding game tonight. That won't be enough to take Croker out of his spot though. Croker will be straight back in. Go Manly.

Harper handled Fifita okay. Agree, Olam is a real threat.

Olam sometimes gets a bit lost without Addo-Carr beside him. Whenever Fox doesn't play, and hopefully that pattern continues in a couple of hours from now, he tends to be a bit all at sea for some reason.

Olam reminds me a bit of the aggressive Matai

He does not hit as hard but he does run as hard

From what I see Olam is generally one of the most consistent backs .

You should be right to do just about anything - betting agencies are always adding to the ways in which they can take our money.
