Last time the Dogs touched up the Storm in Bleak City they were flogged the following week by Wests Tigers of all teams, who themselves then lost 6 in a row. It seems to me that the Dogs have the Storm's number, but not that many others. But Manly are without Choc, as well as Glenn Stewart, Ballin, Buhrer and goodness knows who else. Manly unfortunately do not have Panther-like reserves of depth so they are facing the biggest (albeit slowest) pack in the business with a pack of forwards that look more like Mr Puniverse contenders.

Buggered if I know who will win this. Dogs too mean up front you'd have to think.

Starting to wonder how long players of the calibre of DCE, Foran and Stewart will not click into gear.

Of course the forwards have to do their job too, but surely they will be shamed into action after their feeble performances the past month or so.....

Expecting King to stand up in this one like he did against the Bunnies earlier this year. Could be his last game so he'll want to go out leading the pack well.

I like Symonds and Lui getting full game time. They have a dig at least.

And bet your bottom dollar that Ballin will play.

Dogs narrowly, only if Ballin doesn't play. Manly looked very flat in their sets without him the other night.

Foran isn't playing badly at the moment and aside Matai is the only player at Manly having a dig. The forwards had their asses handed to them and looked happy to mail it in. Choc isn't the player he once was and is more interested in running sideways throwing dummies before hitting someone with a hospital pass than he is tucking it under his wing and taking it at the defense and using his footwork.

Ballin and Buhrer are huge losses. I too wouldn't be surprised to see Ballin back out there this weekend.

Buhrer a huge loss? Not so sure about that
