PRE GAME DISCUSSION: Manly v Broncos Round 5, 2020.

Broncos will be determined to improve, Manly will be determined to win. It may well come down to that being the difference!
 
Sure looks that way Mark, though I'm just a little wary of unpredictable possession swings with the 6 again rule. In reality, every NRL team has enough talent to win on a given day, given 'the rub of the green'. Even Titans Dogs and Warriors.
 
I think its a real danger game. 2 things we need to be careful of is the rebound and thinking the win is already locked in.
We need to start fast. Would love to see a few early tries and watch their heads go down.
I think that’s quite possible as I expect they won’t handle our initial “ thrust up the middle “ and could start with ruck infringements which means ( potentially ) lots of 6 agains.
 
Manly Warringah Sea Eagles Coach Des Hasler has named his team to play the Brisbane Broncos at Central Coast Stadium this Thursday night.

EVERY team?? Cue Dragons 😉
Apologies to my wife.
 
Do you think benching AFB or Marty will put their hair braids out of joint?
Personally i think its a great idea to spread the talent of those 2 across 80min but you know what some guys are like. If I'm not starting I'm pissed off.
 
Apparently Paseka to start with AFB off the bench
It's worth a try
With Fafita out
Having Tapau and AFB on the field for the full 80 mins combined as in one on the other off
Could be a master stroke from Des
