I just can't see them taking it lightly. This is still a very good Chooks team and they will be up for this. We do certainly need to match their enthusiasm or we will be gone pretty early.

Off handed I was only thinking to myself yesterday that we seem to have seen the inside of every other clubs facilities on this show, when are we going to see a tour of our new CoE??
Ask and ye shall receive.

I know it's the NRL so common sense is in short supply but....why can't they have the same ref in the Bunker for both games?
Only two games on different nights.

Its the Finals. Get the boss in there ... get Annesley to earn his pay.
He doesn't have to. Apparently his merry band of bunker clowns never make a mistake.
Noooooo!!!!
Yeah, getting talked up on Nein tonight with Weirdler.
If only Tommy could be at his best... pretty hard to get by on half power against this mob. Anyhoo, it is what it is.
We're going to have to be at our best: Tom Trbojevic

Swing it right!!! Look at the space!!!!!
This is laughable! Robbo defence forces getting their excuses in early. Sure they've lost a couple of players but they still have 25 internationals! They're favourites ffs!!

Really got no idea how this one might go .
Definitely had the edge in that early season i st up match with some smart attacking footy and contained them fairly well .
Maybe not one of the Rooster "s better performances but again Manly really took it up to them and pretty much had their measure
2 nd game ,Manly a bit disorganized and below strength and just gave them too much latitude early on .
Not too fazed with the return of J W H , Manly pack just has to aim up and not give any quarter . and the more Manly can be in their faces across the park , sure that it can work in their favor.
Rooster's defence is usually a strong point so will have to try a bit of variation intermixed with the expected arm wrestle
Field position critical and restricting their good back 3 .and please no dumb penalties.
Team spirit should be on a bit of a high and of course going to take a really spirited team effort to somehow jag this one .
Bookies admittedly usually get it right but even with Turbo 's predicament , Manly are more then capable of giving this one a good shot
