[Gaba]

LOL going for an upset , eels to win

 

[Non Terminator]

Eels have to come good, but at Brookvale against Manly with Lyon and co. starting to get into some good nick, it's hard to tell.
It'll also be interesting to see if the bye has helped or hindered the Eels.

 

[clipser]

i'll tip manly, on the large shoulders of Lyon... and not orfords kicking game.

Jamie Lyon has played pretty well against Parra since coming back, on that basis I will put Manly down for a win

[aussies1st]

Manly should win it now that they know they can win without Stewart.

 

[Cletus]

Manly should win it now that they know they can win without Stewart.

The trouble is Lyon won't be scoring three tries a game. I'm more confident but some of the other players need to stand up, and Orford needs to do a lot more to help them.

Manly by 22.

Manly hooker L'Estrange hurt in training

May 13, 2009
Manly captain Matt Orford stopped short of saying the Sea Eagles are back to their 2008 best, but the self-belief which got them to the NRL premiership has returned.
Not even an ankle wound to replacement hooker Heath L'Estrange at training on Wednesday could dampen the spirit in the Sea Eagles side buoyed by last Sunday's come-from-behind defeat of front runners Brisbane.
Orford said the 22-20 victory had convinced Manly they could still threaten for back-to-back NRL premierships.
"In the scheme of things it was massive to go up there and get the two points, it was important for us," said Orford.
"It's too early to say (we're back). We've taken a step in the right direction anyway and I think our attitude the last few weeks has been good and we just haven't been finishing off games.
"I think we just showed the commitment on Sunday against the guys on top ... that is where the self belief that we can still be a force in this competition is reinforced."
Prop Josh Perry said the win over the Broncos could prove to be a significant moment in their season.
"That self-confidence and knowing, we have got that back now," he said.
"That is what we built our wins on last year, it could be the turning point for us."
L'Estrange fell awkwardly during a training drill at Narrabeen and concerned club officials rushed to his aid and demanded television cameras be immediately turned off.
He was carried off the field and rushed away in a waiting vehicle, but it all turned out to be a massive over-reaction as L'Estrange suffered nothing more than a deep stud wound that required a couple of stitches.
He is certain to play in Sunday's NRL clash with Parramatta at Brookvale Oval.
"I think he just got a stud mark and a fairly deep cut," said Orford.
"I wasn't too keen to have a look and he was in a bit of pain."
Meanwhile Orford didn't do Jamie Lyon's quest to be overlooked for the NSW State of Origin side any favours, declaring his star centre to be in the best form of his career.
"He has been on fire all year. He has been our No.1 player. He's been the most consistent for our team week in week out," said Orford.
"It's hard (for NSW) not to pick someone of that calibre, but that's up to the selectors isn't it.
"He is just really enjoying his footy. We're not going to go to him every time and expect him to win games like he did on Sunday.
"If we all play like Jamie we will do well in this competition."

[Parramatta_Power]

If Parramatta plays like a team... we beat them. If Manly proves again it is not a One-Man team... they'll beat us and by a big margin I might add.
