Lockyer's team mates are the ones who will be most affected mentally as they will be afraid to crowd him in case they smash his face again.

Its a win, win for Manly as I see it.
1) If he is there, the free flow of the Broncos is affected by their protective instincts towards Lockyer
2) If he is not there, the role that he plays will be dispersed among the Broncos making it a less cohesive effort

Just a note:-
Titanium is Paramagnetic. This is a form of magnetism which occurs only in the presence of an externally applied magnetic field.
So The Manly Team's magnetic personality should have Lokyer's face planted in interesting places

Manly take no prisoners!
