Game Day: Manly v Storm [Round 24, 2016]

[1969]

So Brad Parker, Issac Johns, and Willis Meehan named in the in trust cup.

 

[pjayz]

Surely Tom will drop out even though he is named?

 

[STSK]

Parcell and Myles in. Green and Walker out.

So Brad Parker, Issac Johns, and Willis Meehan named in the in trust cup.

They will get flogged, 3 Vs 13 players will allow gaping holes and massive overlaps out wide

 

[Ben]

Is naming Tom just to take the pressure off Parker for the week?

 

[davohan123]

Surely Tom will drop out even though he is named?

Agreed if Snake is around this weekend and fit I expect him to be a late call up, that team named 15 minutes ago won't be the team to run out on Saturday.

 

[Woodsie]

What price parcel to 5/8 and Lyon to centre?

Agree mate, I think people here have been licking cane toads. We are in for a hiding. Storm are gunna be angry after the Raiders schellacking.

 

[pjayz]

What price parcel to 5/8 and Lyon to centre?

100-1

More likely Api to 5/8 and Parcell to 9 I would think.

Ha, licking Cane Toads, now there's a QLD thing for you!!!

 

[eaglebuzz]

By the sounds of it we'll withdraw a lot of injured players, and as a result we'll field an inexperienced side that will get spanked. But I'm ok with that at this point, better to focus on 2017.

 

[Harvies elbow]

It's a big opportunity to beat em.
They got a short turnaround and the raiders absolutely bashed them.
Play fast play physical.
I just want them to have a crack at it and if we can't beat them hurt them.

 

[Mals]

I recall reading somewhere that Snake got a post op infection in his knee which has slowed his recovery. Don't expect to see him play again this year.

 

[Mitch]

@readingtheplay seem to think we're a big show!

Tuesday's free good thing! Eagles massive chance of big upset this week v's Storm at Brookie. Put that one in your black book. #NRL

I think we will be flogged by 20+

I've made a promise to myself. No more than two a day.

 

[mickqld]

Like to see us win but even more like to see the grub Smith taken out for good.

 

[HoldenV8]

Didn't Jorge go in for surgery on his shoulder?

I don't expect to see Tom back until 2017 (though it wouldn't surprise me if he does play) and Walker is also gone for the year.

Lewis Brown will be in the centres over the next 3 games unless he too gets injured. I can see Parcell being the hooker if fit with Api to 5/8 and Killer back to the centres.

The question is who will play fullback because we know Parker will probably play on the wing. If not Tom or Snake then it'll probably be Wiliame or even Godinet.

One thing is for sure, the team named today will be very different to the one that runs out on Saturday afternoon/evening. The forwards will probably be much the same, but the backs......no chance.

 

[NYEagle]

This team is pretty stacked, I think they will give a great account of themselves.
It's all about training for next near now.

I'm hopeful, but I think we are on a flogging to nothing.
