This is how bad we're going.........

With players on rep duties the Broncos might rest Hodges, Lockyer, McCullough and Wallace.

Looks like the Broncos don't rate us and think they can win without some of their stars.

hehe, cant be at all surprised.

but why rest McCullogh, he will be nowhere near a rep jumper

We can win this.  Other teams have, and if this is the week we all wake up and play like professionals then we can win.  Without their halves, this is the game for Ox to step up and show why he is the Dally M player with the medal and should be considered for rep honors..

It is nothing new, have heard that they will be resting Lockyer at various points over the season

Worst possible weekend to play Brisbane, with just a few of their backs backing up and 7 of our squad backing up (6 now with Cuthbo's injury).  Yet this article says "Manly are in the same position with a number of players involved in both representative clashes" and fails to mention the differential.  What else would we expect when News Ltd reports on a News Ltd owned team?

Expect all Brisbane players to back up unless injured.

Karmichael Hunt is playing on Friday night replacing Slater.  Hope he gets injured.
