Trust us to have to take on Manly with a fit and firing Tommy Turbo. I'd like to think that if the boys put in and effort like they did this weekend, that we'll come away with the win.

 

[Perth Tiger]

Turbo will destroy us and then pull his hamstring scoring his third try in the 79th minute

 

[macnaz]

Wankfest stadium is cancer ... another lose.

if I bump into him in the next 6 days I’ll
challenge him to a foot race.

honestly, if we play like we did last night we should win this and win it well.

 

[Speedy Gonzales]

Such a hard game to read

both teams arguably with the most surprising results over the weekend (although we lost)

if we show the same resilience like we did against souffs and limit turbo, we should win

 

[benched tiger]

I’d rather Tommy in there line up, it may prevent any complacency that seems to creep into our team when they expect to win.

 

[The Charlatan]

If we turn up like we did against Souths, we'll dress them.

If.

 

[Tiger Ted]

When was the last time we put in 2 solid performances in succession !

 

[Tigerm]

Tommy Turbo lifts them sky high, but if we have turned the corner we should get this by 8 with AD MoM.

 

[stryker]

I don’t know what to think.
I thought we would flog Cows and that Souths would flog us.
I still don’t trust these guys and suspect last weekend broke their spirits a bit.
Probably take Manly in a very sloppy game.

 

[Blackwhitegold]

I believe we beat manly like we should of beat the cows.42 to 10

 

[Tigerm]

MCK in the centres? Interesting call?

[Tiger05]

Madge is going full genius. Seyfarth on the bench. Mikaele dropped. MCK to the centres.

Let's see how we go. One thing about Madge is that he changes the team up.

I thought Seyfarth had a good game last week, not so much MCK?

Perhaps rewarding effort for a change.

 

[Tiger Ted]

Expect Mbye will start in centres & chee - kam on the bench

 

[Vic Mackey]

After seeing that team, Manly 13+

CheeKam in the centers F#*k me

 

[Vozzy]

You know what's funny if our reserve grade team lined up for Manly this week I reckon they would give the first team a run for its money. I don't get the Chee-Kam selection either yes your trying to win but don't tell me he is in your future plans or whatever so may as well put a young bloke in thing is don't really want BJ either.

 

[Tiger05]

I thought Seyfarth had a good game last week, not so much MCK?

Perhaps rewarding effort for a change.

Seyfarth has looked good but he also does get smashed a bit. Mikaele has only been playing 20 odd minutes and he has had an impact. Good hard running.

I'm not knocking it. Let's see how it goes.

 

[Vic Mackey]

Just on Seyfarth, he has been very very good in nsw cup. If you watch him he does a lot of the 1%s well, he is the first in the defensive line on every single kick chase.

I think he was thrown in too early last year and was absolutely monstered. He was always going to be a guy who took a bit longer to mature due to his beanpole frame. 22 is still quiet young for an NRL forward, I’m not saying he’s going to be a superstar but I do think he could be a be a guy that has a decent NRL career, similar to say Bryce Gibbs.

I do think the dropping of Mikaele is odd though.
