If we are going to finish 5th or 6th no matter what, I say we rest our whole team and let future immortal Jazz Tevaga leave the NRL as a champion scoring 5 tries.

Nothing match really. Manly aren’t making the 8 and the Warriors bubble popped awhile back. They should’ve lost to the Dargons a couple of weeks ago as well.

If Turbo and Jurbo are playing on, then the squad is hardly lifting just for DCE and Seibold's farewell game... Wahs to defy the sceptics and take out the Lodge Cup, 38-30

If you look at the Warriors’ stats this year it’s obvious that Websterball will only take you so far. The Warriors are equal 1st with Souths for completion rates with 82% . They are also no. 1 for least handling errors and no. 1 for least total errors. They need to get more expansive with the ball to go any further.

Wade Egan missing will be interesting. He provides a high quality of service from dummy half. His replacement Samuel Healey looks like a good prospect though. Koula missing makes a big difference to Manly’s left edge attack. With him there I feel Manly would have shredded the Warriors’ right edge defence. Turbo still might though as he is getting his confidence back and is looking ominous.

DCE’s final NRL match before he retires to polish the Roosters’ trophy cabinet. Will likely be announced a few days after the Roosters’ final campaign comes to an end. Totally derailed Manly’s season with his ill advised foray onto TV.

Meat pies to Hoppa , Saab and Turbo. DWZ is overdue so pencil him in with Halasima. RTS up against a new defensive combo of Faulalo /Saab. Pencil RTS in for 1st try scorer and a double. Schoupp may have been a better centre option. Warriors also have a better record against Manly at Brookvale than they do in New Zealand.

Wahs are legit a bottom 4 team atm. I expect a similar scoreline to the last time Manly played at brookvale. Eagles by 32.

I feel like the first half of the year our completions and low errors were amazing, second half of the year has been all over the show.

So surprising that overall we are still so high in those areas comparatively.

Every game from here is fingers crossed really, although we've had more luck against Manly in recent years, can never write them off regardless of their form this year.
Plus I don't think I'll be able to get up to Auckland next weekend so would rather a week 2/3 home final if we scrape back into top 4 with a win and Storm/Dogs doing us a favour 🙏
