Manly looking bashed up at the moment.

Drugcastle to rebound from their Shyte Show last week.

 

[GongPanther]

Newcy to shake off that shit-show from last week.

Knights by 14.

Cant see the Eagles getting up here, too many plodders with no depth.

If DCE brings last games performance this week, Eagles are in big poop. Unfortunately without TT,Suli, Walker there is no attacking options left.

And lets no get started on Levi, getting rid of Api was a mistake, Des should have know Fainu was a religious nut who goes to church stabbing people, poor form Dessie.

I'll wait in hope that Cust replaces Levi, not hopeful. I'm declaring that Levi is up there as one of the Eagles worst recruitment's ever!!!

If Manly have Des Hasler doing recruitment and retention they deserve the spoon after his efforts at Belmore.

The Knights also were miserable last week with some alarming defensive lapses before Checcin took pity on them and they were able to run in some points after the match was decided. Manly likewise made a mockery of their previous defensive efforts but at least had the excuse of the previous week's heroics. This is a toss up really.

Why did Eagle Rock jump in my head? Oh that's right it's time for our annual bend over at Brookie. Manly by 20.

Pretty much this. I’ll double down and go Manly by 40 with us sustaining half a dozen season ending injuries.

So probably one of our better results at Brookvale.

 

[alexwilliams_66692007]

Realistically we should win this and win it well so put your house on Manly 30+.
Jorgie Taufua to bag 5 tries

 

[Rodney Rude]

Manly by plenty.

Sunday afternoon thrashings at Brookie seem to be a regular theme for Newcastle.

 

[eagles4eva]

Awesome Suli is back, not convinced that Garrick is the right choice at fullback. Hoppa Jnr must be close to returning from injury, anyone know his status???

Battle of the dud hookers

McCullough isn’t that bad just really f**king slow.

 

[to_ddeath]

Tipping Knights cos Moanly can get bent for stuffing me up in the tips 2 weeks straight now.

A while off yet, only just got the all-clear to resume training. And no Reggies to get some miles in the legs and cop a few hits.

So.....so he has to pull his finger out?

 

[Vic Mackey]

Predicting Levi will finally help the Knights get a win

Newcastle by 8

 

[perverse]

I'm glad the neutrals think we can turn it around, because I worry that Manly will give us a toweling here.

It's so frustrating watching Levi toddle off after sixty minutes and a fringe first grader like Croker or Cust open up the keys to the attack for the last quarter of the game.

Yeah I wasn't a fan of Levi coming off last week either.
