MVP: Rd 5 v Panthers

3. DCE - refused to go into his shell after one of his attacking kicks didn't quite go to plan. Then set up 3 tries in a row to win the match for Manly

2. Brown - turned the game Manly’s way when he came on in the first half and continued the great runs and big hits all match

1. Sipley - his best match for Manly imo. When he and Brown came on, they turned the match to Manly

Special mention.
Ben T was outstanding and frankly defended a lot better than Garrick has in the centres.
Ben missed 6 tackles. Anyhow, he is selected in the centres this week - so we’ll see.

Actually according to recorded stats it was 7 misses. However his tackle rate for a centre was most unusual at 20 which is little different from the tackles made by several forwards, two having missed 4 each. Harder further out to avoid missing tackles. Turbo often has a few missed tackles though he rarely makes more than six or seven a game. Brooks missed 3 but did 20 tackles and was declared a good tackling effort. DCE did 21 and missed 4. Koula did 6 tackles and missed 2. If they tackle more they are more likely to miss more.
