See Walker is in the extended squad. Any chance Robbo swallows his pride and gives up on the Manu at 6 experiment?

Walker won't play and that is the right decision IMO.

We have gone down this track now so should at least give it time and see what Manu offers at 6. To be fair to both Manu and Robbo, two of the three games he has had were in terential conditions so I don't think a judgement can be made either way at this point.

The Panthers have only conceded more than 2 tries in a game once this year, when we had to pull 2 tries out of our arse in the last 5 minutes to win, largely thanks to running at Jaemon Salmon.

You take those 5 minutes out and they've conceded max 2 tries in every game.

I don't see how the Roosters attack manages the required 3+ tries tonight to win.

Especially with Joseph Manu in a serious form slump... the guy has only 1 try, 1 try assist and 1 linebreak across the entire 2023.

Salmon has been a boon for your blokes against us. Late last year you carved him up starting and then almost got us in round two this year at the end when he was at right back rower.

Like Tyrell and Clark in 2014 he has a premiership due to the rest of the roster being stacked.

Nathan Cleary has a new haircut. Unfortunately for him it didn’t come with a new head.
