This is a joke - but I reckon it will only inspire the Manly pack to a scary level and other NRL forward packs will pay the price!

Not sure how to paste so you can see for yourself, but this is the link....

I feel the Seaeagles will only be stronger, by a way in the pack in 2020 and in 2019 basically won most battles in this area.

The dummy half maybe untested and this has effected these ratings dramatically, but expect Levi, Cust and bith Ipappe and
Croker to get it done, as ALL are running players that fit perfectly with the roll on these Manly forwards produce.


Ratings -

Raider - A+
Storm - A -
Roosters - A -
Bris - A -
Souths - A -
Cows - B+
Illawarra - B+
Eels - B -
Penrith - B -
Manly - B -
Sharks - C +
Newcastle - C+
Titans - C -
Dogs - C -
NZ - D+
Tigers - D+
 
Article saying Minus B for Levi (only as our pack is untried with him) .
If Fainu was there it would of been A at the very least.
Im tipping Levi isnt going to know what to do with all the space he is going to be creating on the back of our dominating attack phased forwards.
 
I remember seeing an article last year and looking at both the Cowboys and Titans pack and I think their two packs were rated as the best. Cows had Jason T, Hess, Matt Scott and Cooper and added McLean while the Titans had Ryan James, Jarrod Wallace, Kevin Proctor, Jai Arrow and added Shannon Boyd over the off season. Turns out both packs were ordinary when they got on the paddock!

I must admit I spat out my coffee when I read Souths get an A because Liam Knight is ready to step up into Sam Burgess’ shoes... I think Souths pack looks quite average on paper.

As for our pack, as good as they were last year, they will need to be better if we are to win. They can’t rest on last year’s performance. I think they can be better, and the performances of our bench forwards will be a key part of this improvement.
 
Every year there are dozens of stories from so-called experts rating teams and how they will finish.
Very few are even remotely right, waiting on Rothfields predictions with the usual Sharks will be in the top 4 and Manly to struggle.
 
Those ratings seem to focus on the expected starting pack which is pointless as so many players are needed over the course of a season.
It's fair enough to have a small question mark on our pack after losing both last year's hookers but i'm not worried about any of the packs Manly will come up against this year, in fact they will be worried about us.

What's the point of including the 9 in the forward pack anyway? Other than the fact they are in the group hug we call a scrum. They are clearly skill players and belong in the spine ratings. Including them in this just muddies the waters and is the reason Souths, Raiders and Storm are rated higher than they should be.

Souths A+ BAHAHAHAHAHAHA
we should be a B+
Can someone provide the stats for meters gained and post contact meters. Pretty sure we are top 3.. our pack is a beast of a pack. One of the best for sure we always roll up the field..
 
Why on EARTH do we all get sucked in to this crap?

These hacks do this to get a response, and get some interaction/comments/clicks on their articles. They LOVE to wind us up, and they also love to give hope to those well supported, crappy clubs who will die in the ar$e by July.

We all know the truth - and we all know that every team is 2 bad injuries away from turning an A into a C

Don't drink their coolade Silvertailers. To quote a Penguin from Madagascar 'smile and wave boys, smile and wave'

I doubt many are sucked in by this, it's just a way to pass the time until the season starts, we feign mock outrage. We're all waiting a long way from kick off..............
