could be a good time for Canberra to play manly.

lots of sea eagles in doubt. Taupau, Taufua, Sironen, Suli

 

[typicalfan]

Historically Manly are more dangerous when their backs are against the wall. A few players out is just the recipe for a good old fashioned Des ambush.

 

[footy75]

This is gonna be a cracker.

Maybe Manly.

 

[mongoose]

Manly are our bogey side and we aren't playing well enough to beat them.

 

[2 weeks]

The Bradley Parker vs Jarrod Croker battle may break the Internet

 

[Silent Knight]

Josh Hodgson vs Danny Levi

Raiders by 20.

 

[Proud2BeCanberran]

Ehhh hate coming up against Manly. They always seem to get under our skin and we crack. Whilst Manly are missing some players, I still have them beating us. We're not too crash hot atm and yep as mentioned, Manly are our bogey side.

Manly by 4.

Won't mean shit. Manly own Canberra no matter who plays.

 

[eagles4eva]

Funa & Elliott are total duds, this where the Eagles depth will be tested...Marty T is a massive loss..

Raiders should be too strong

 

[Walk On Home Boy]

Too many injuries for Manly and their attack has looked awful all year.

Raiders 13+

Yeah I’m not very confident. Something about manly’s style that really puts us off our game
And we’re not exactly setting the f**king world on fire the last fortnight

 

[shear_joy9]

Won't mean shit. Manly own Canberra no matter who plays.

especially if they play like they did against the tigpies and knights. They would make even Dani Levi look good

 

[Greenfields]

We couldn’t shutdown their offloading last year and they carved us up. At least we don’t have BJ to gift wrap it for them this time.

Yep, DCE & Turbo off the back of frequent offloads & second phase gives Raiders the shivers the last few times they've played.

The loss of Tapau & Suli however, should reduce some of that danger. If the Raiders can't shut down that part of Manly's game enough when two of their prime offload exponents are gone then they shouldn't be premiership favourites or even near it.

The other key factor will be DCE bombing CNK. CNK has had a little bit of the yips with errors the last couple of weeks (after barely registering any most of last year & beginning this). Brooks' height & accuracy & a really fierce Tigers chase gave CNK a really hard day last outing & if Manly can get a couple of mistakes out of CNK then Raiders have shown great difficulty actually rucking out of our own 10m zone this year. No BJ really hurts us there, just can't get a roll on.

Stuart has changed Lui out of the prop rotation perhaps in a bit of a sign of frustration at the lack of yards out our end.

 

[GongPanther]

If Manly are screwed by injuries, Can by 40. If they pull through Man by 6.

 

[Sparkles 2001]

Manly are too classy for Canberra, injuries won’t help eagles this round

 

[Hutty1986]

Too many outs for Manly. Raiders by 10

 

[AlwaysGreen]

Our average IQ has gone up by 29% since BJ left, so now that it sits at 86 we're a chance.

Manly by 8.

Hudson young back in... And I'm not convinced Curtis Scott has that much of an edge over BJ in the brains department either. Don't the other players called his edge with Cotric "dumb & dumber"?
