I suppose it depends which match they (NRL) regard as the #1 match

 

[Lungfish]

Time to get them back for the 06 final!

 

[Beavers Headgear]

imo Manly had their defensive tune up for the finals against the Titans, and did it pretty well

Manly played terrible last game v Drags and only lost by 2 points

If Manly turn up how i think they will, they win

Saints were also terrible that day, something like 7 or 8 consecutive incomplete sets at one pont wasn't it? And they still won by 2 at Brookvale.

If Phil Cooley did his job Manly would've prevailed..

 

[Beavers Headgear]

Yeah, wasn't trying to take away from your win that night, just you concentrate more on your own side when they are dishing up crap.

Was thinking about that game the other night, and the inconsistentcy in things actually

Matai hit Soward without the ball, penalty and a Saints try from it, wheras Sa hit Creagh last weekend and nothing resulted

No way that Hampstead will even be considered .. And the inside word is that it will be those 3 + Robinson.

Now I think the two biggest games of the round are 4 v 5 and 2 v 7 .. so Hayne and Archer will get those 2 IMO.

Last year Archer was the GF referee,and in the first week he refereed NZ v Parra (4 v 5)

Dude, stop being so amicable ffs.

 

[Tommax25]

Cuthbo has been sh*t for the past 2 months.

so I guess I haven't been the only one whoose heart was in their mouth every time he got passed the ball for a hitup? He has imporved on it recently, but for a while there he was dropping the ball a hell of a lot. Was really annoying me, esepcailly as commentators are always going on about how he is a skillful frontrower/backrower. He does have some ballplaying skills but at the time I could hardly call a first grader who can't hold onto the ball upon impact a skillful player. Was killing me.

 

[Terry-Randal]

Manly by 30 time for the business to start. this is the manly team that can finally win the premiership. Only thing that can stop them is injuries. This is my manly team for the match

1 B. Stewart
2 G.Robertson
3 Matai
4 bell
5 Wolfman
6 Lyon
7 Orford

lock glen stewart
sec row watmough
sec row cuthbertson
prop Kyte
hooker Lestrange
Prop Hall

bench Perry, Menzies, Bryant, king.. out balin

Balin lacks lestranges flair and his ommision gives us an extra foward needed for finals

 

[CliffyIsGod]

There is no way Dessie will leave Ballin out.

 

[Where Eagles Dare]

Yes, the finals are the perfect time to start experimenting with team line-ups. We should give a couple of the u20's boys a run too seeing as they didn't make the finals, it will be good experience for them.

That backline wouldn't have 30 in it, let alone beat a side by 30

There won't be this in this game either way imo

Yes, but then there are all those try scoring machine forwards. ;-)

 

[Beavers Headgear]

:lol:, i would be more fired up, but i dont actually mind your mob to be honest with ya

Still want to end your season though

 

[renouf]

You also have to factor in a couple of ricochet tries

 

[kia ora storm]

Dragons by 4...will be close.

I feel a bit the same way, I'm a huge Menzies fan too. This'll probably change by kick-off though! manly have a 2nd chance if they lose, we don't
