Walker and Matai OUT?

I just finished reading an article from the Herald in another thread saying Dylan is looking forward to playing against Souths.
I haven't heard if Mattai is a definite but Im sure he would have had his scan and the club would know the results.

Manly are in danger off going into tomorrow night’s massive clash against Souths without a recognised half or five-eighth.

Star number seven Daly Cherry-Evans is already out with an ankle injury and I can reveal that his halves partner Dylan Walker is also in grave doubt with a hand injury.

It’s the same injury that hampered Walker for much of last season and resulted in his form being well below his best in 2015.

The return of the injury is a blow, especially as Walker played his best game for the Sea Eagles in the brave win over the Roosters last Saturday night.

Coach Trent Barrett has already been forced to gamble on specialist hooker Api Koroisau to replace Cherry-Evans and the potential loss of Walker against a desperate Souths side will make it hard for the Eagles to take the points, even though the game is at ‘fortress Brookvale’.

Walker attended Thursday's Captain's Run but what if he fails a late fitness test?

Don’t be surprised if Barrett goes for winger Tom Trbojevic.

In another challenging five-day turnaround for Manly, star centre Steve Matai is also in doubt with his ongoing neck/shoulder issues.
