They are missing a lot of playmakers in Pappy, Hughes and Munster. Just mark up on Grant for the full 80, I know, easier said than done and with no Croker. The two big Storm wingers are our biggest danger, need our forwards to dominate, if so, we've definitely got a shot at winning this.

maybe you can get a gig as the backline coach - they need a fine tuna.
He's a good judge is Joey..

Unfortunately not. He's young, and he's not very big.
Now, I thought that would prove a problem for him in the reggies, but it hasn't. Kid has talent to burn. I wasn't really looking forward to this game, but I'm excited to watch his debut now.

It certainly adds a bit more interest to the game after all the recent withdrawals from both teams

Just a hunch, but I think it's because we're not very good.
Yes, we can have good games - and even periods during games where we look great - but there's no consistency. Good teams are consistent, so by definition we are not a good team.

"tomorrow will be tricky"
"We have quite a few players out"
etc etc etc, it's all happening for you Siebs.
Could slide to 13th this week - imagine only winning 5 from 12 games.
Has he seen their team? this guy is looking for excuses before the game and wants an extension wtf
Ryan
Journey Man
Yup. People laugh at Brad Arthur - but he's what we need. A hard arse who will kick some players arses. Never to make excuses.
Manly are specials to win tomorrow, really looking forward to it.
Will be great to see Lehi debut as well, we're due for another Hopoate grand final winner.

Go get em Hoppa. I know he's contracted next year, but think I'd be extending that before I'd give a debut.
Young Hoppa may be a better fullback than Winger
History has shown that there have been some great debuts by debutants in their position that they perform best .
I won't be watching either. Will be out on the sauce so it's a near certain win for us.
