Despite still having a stack out I dont think it will be the pasting a lot are predicting. Surpsingly we have the 8th best defence in the comp. Take out that Poomy centre and we're probably 5th.

Our forwards completly dominated the Dragons last week, they made 4 clean line breaks through the middle of the field but had no support to finish it off. With so many backs out we're struggling to break the line in the 20 and sadly thats probably going to continue for a few weeks. Maulmalo back gives us a handy kick option though.

If Tom wasnt in Id probably tip us, with him there though Manly should be too good.

Western Suburbs Magpies easily won the Harold Matts GF on the weekend. Until those players come through the WT system within the next 3 to 5 years, there isn't much to look forward to in building a constant playing quality squad.

But for matters at hand ATM, Tigers are going to go home empty handed. Manly by 16.

The last Magpies side that won Matts had 5 guys win NRL Premierships with 4 years, lets hope more of the same. Sheens said he rates this one higher then the 2002 one.

Our Flegg side has a heap of talent, we've just moved half a dozen of them upto NSW Cup, will be a good watch.

NSW Cup Maggies side will have 7 live games on Fox for the rest of this season.

Dylan Walker is the utility on the bench, WTF is Morgan Harper doing on the bench...Our depth is putrid.

Walked in and sat down just in time to see Jabba from Channel V split the Tigers and then Adam Gee make an absolute f**ken howler while grimacing like he is squeezing out a durian

Might need some beers for this one
