Manly 13+

Sadly I have to say souths by 4

 

[SaraSassypants]

I wish the media were putting more pressure on Souffs to win. Stewart is apparently set to play since he trained today for the first time in a while, will be a big boost.

I think they've put a ridiculous amount of pressure on them already. Every press conference is about the possible 21st premiership. FFS I just care about this week. No point talking about grand finals when we've got a game on Friday night to win first.

 

[cain3y]

I think the roosters will stop souths getting to 21

 

[Terry-Randal]

Manly by 2 Souths have the better form but Manly have the finals experience. Rabbits to choke

 

[eagles4eva]

Snake is a massive in for the Eagles, I still think fatigue will play a part for the Eagles... Head says rabbits by 8, heart says Eagles by 4

 

[typicalfan]

Question is the fitness level of GI.

 

[ceagle]

Bryson Goodwin is in doubt. Matt King apparently trained in his place today.

 

[Jatz Crackers]

Souths have the obvious rest & physical advantage. They also have the mental advantage of previously winning against the team they are about to play. They are on the up. and with substantial momentum that surpasses the Eagles. They have most of the advantage but yet there is a sense they have doubts.

 

[The Pip]

Manly have been foxing all week - the Stewart saga is one ruse they have played - he is 100% fit, and could have played at a pinch last week. They have done this superbly - they are massive underdogs against a team that has not played well for the best part of 2 months. Souths have played this game in their heads for two weeks now. Manly will win, and by a margin that will surprise.

 

[The.X.Factor9]

Tipping Souths because they were on the top of the poll when I scrolled my curser down the webpage; other than that I have no clue who is going to win this.

All I hope for is that its a game worth staying home for on a Friday night.

 

[Eye_Shot_The_Sheriff]

Souffs bi plenty if they are ahead after 20

 

[Nemesis]

Moanly Whine-at-ya players shooting their mouths off all week have only been shooting themselves in the foot.

Souths will be much better prepared, far too motivated, powerful and relentless for Moanly to handle.

 

[AnfieldIron]

I feel physically ill.

I have waited all of my 26 years to be in this position. I am honestly barely going to be able to watch tonight.

I just hope that we do ourselves justice and play in the manner that I know we can play. It's going to be a test of our mental fortitude. We have the talent on paper, but can we handle 42 years' worth of demons?

All I know is I'm going to be out at ANZ screaming my bloody lungs out.

May the best side win.

 

[Alan Johnson]

If DCE is on an upswing of form and improves on last week he could get Manly over the line. Going to be hard work for the Manly big men though.

 

[Haffa]

Think Manly will win this. I hope I'm wrong, but I just think they're primed.

 

[woodyk2]

We got this.

 

[Sleep]

This should be an amazing game. One of the best of the series so far. I think Souths will win purely because Manly looked out of their feet last week and are probably coming across the most physical team in the comp. If Manly get this I'll be backing them to go all the way.

 

[WaznTheGreat]

Souths have got dis

Rabbits by 4, it'll be a hell of a lot closer than people think
