Eagles by 8.

I think those forwards missing for the Warriors could tell on them. Should be a good game I think either way.

Warriors have maybe the best depth in the front row, even with two starters out I still believe they are stronger in that department.

Very, very strange bench named by the rookie coach.

Why so? If he goes with the first four it's pretty conventional, Inu might be in there to cover for Hurrell if he doesn't go well. Don't really see Mara or Fisiahi making the 17.

I voted Manly but I think the warriors will win. Have a feeling that Manly will start the season slowly, but am confident that once they settle in old combinations will click and it will be smooth sailing to the title (or is there a title to be won? I recall the fanfare for the sharks when they smashed manly, they were crowned premier, correct? :roll:)

Its probably the injuries and all the backs but even then Henry isnt too big, Lousi is raw and not a dominant forward and who knows what Ta'ai will give you game to game.

Those are pretty much the only other two props we've got (makeshift as they are), seeing as Lillyman and both Rapiras are injured. We've got a gazillion backrowers, but no propping depth.
