Your bench wont be as potent because a few of the guys will be starting.

Vella and Fui are bench players anyway. Cannings replaces Fui almost one for one (not quite as good). Peek replaces Vella (better in my opinion). Wagon comes in from PL to replace Hindmarsh.

Preniers is a manly fan....enough said.

Some people are upset at my assessment. As has been rightly pointed out Menzies is not a five eight. morris craps on him and has been one of the better performing number 6's all year. His try assists prove this.

Brett Stewart I rate as a good first grader. McKinnon last year was amongst the stand out fullbacks of the comp. This year he has had a few injuries but Stewart has by no means outperformed him. McKinnon has a better kick return and his support play is about even.

Brent Kite was a disgrace to our Origin jumper and is a soft forward. he is inconsistent and goes missing when it counts. Basically he performed up to the June deadline last year. Fui or even Cannings are way more dangerous. Especially off the bench.

I stand by the Watmough and Morrison comment. I rate both those players higly. My about even call was accurate. Morrison is very much undervalued. Watmough was the flavour of the month at origin time. But both are top back rowers.

Ok even on these 'debatable' players you suck. We add these four guys that leaves Parra with a 12 to 5 advantage on player match ups. They kill you across the park.

Unlucky boys.

By the way I am a Tigers man. Just Parra are the team to beat.

 

[Cletus]

Can't say I'm too upset about most of the match ups but you really need to see a bit more of Stewart if you think Mckinnon is better.
I think the one thing no one disagrees on is Parra halves> Manly halves.

I think the one thing no one disagrees on is Parra halves> Manly halves.

Even as a proud Manly fan I'll say that Parra's halves, centres and wingers convincingly dominate their Manly opposites.

In the forwards it is a lot more even. BK could even tip the scales in Manly's favour with Hindmarsh out. Parra's bench has taken a hit with three of their forwards out - but it will still have PJ and Widders. Not to be taken lightly.

I'm feeling unnervingly confident about this sunday. Touch wood, etc.

:lol:

when will you be appearing for no talent time

All three played for NSW this year?

Beaver was the most capped NSW player in this years squad.


Both Beaver and Kennedy have also played test.


How many SOO or tests has Morrison or Robinson played?

 

[CC_Eagle]

Watmough has been awol since they gave himan Origin jumper and he froze.

He hasn't been playing...Thats probably why.

And you still ran 8th :lol:

Anthony Watmough in the last 10 games (in reverse chronological order)
v Raiders - played - won
v Warriors - played - lost
v Sharks - played - lost
v Knights - played - lost
v Broncos - did not play - won
v Cowboys - did not play - lost
v Dragons - did not play - lost
v Panthers - did not play - lost
v Tigers - did not play - lost
v Bulldogs - played - lost

So he played in 5 of your last 10 games, and you won 1 game with him, and 1 game without him. The stats would appear to put no link between him playing and Manly winning.

 

[forward pass]

I couldn't care less if we get smacked or not at the moment. It's just good to be there after the last two months.

The game at Parra Stadium at the start of the year was a close one. i would accept that scoreline again.

Manly fans are happy to accept close losses now. :lol: :lol:

 

[Hurriflatch]

Not sure if this has been said

but just because a player has played in an Origin or test doesn't automatically make that person a better player.

Chris Walker has played Origin
Eric Grothe hasn't

Tell me who would you want on your team?
