Manly to miss top 4

[Shipsyeagles]

Have this feeling Manly will get done Friday Night @ Brookie by Broncs and probably miss out on TOP 4 ( due to Cowboys winning last 2 games have superia for and against)

5 day recovery, Brisbane desperate, handful of injuries...

Dogs fans will be rubbing thier hands at the thought of this ....Manly are the last team they wish to play in first week of finals

Thoughts ??

Yeah, maybe. My other thought is that the Cows struggled against the Dragons. Beating the Sharks at Shark park is not easy task when you compare it with Monday night.

The rabbits are on a 2 match losing streak.

Manly have done well to push into the top 4. It was only a few weeks ago they nearly pushed out of the 8. You have to win the big games to win the title. Not making the top 4 only means an extra win in the finals.

 

[Shipsyeagles]

Even if Manly do defeat Broncs, still have to back up against Titans weeks after to secure top 4.

Yeah true about winning extra game in finals, but dont have that so called " quarantined" game in first round, and if Manly finish 5th and play Wests in First round.... Majority of crowd would be Tigers fans and also not a team i would like to play first up.

But only time will tell ... :crazy:

Don't want to play the Tiggers in week 1? No worries, throw the Titan's game completely and lose by 50 and play them the next week in Sydney.

 

[Frailty]

Souths to lose their next two matches, Manly to win both, Sharks to win both leaving us with Bulldogs, Storm, Manly, Sharks top 4.....








Wishful thinking.

If Manly "ever "throw a game,.. ill support Norths.!!

Centrebet have Manly clear favourites to win the Premiership.

I dont think its going to matter where the PREMIERS finish.Back to back baby.

Centrebet have Manly clear favourites to win the Premiership.

They mustn't have heard that Bunniesman said that Manly will win the premiership.

That's a kiss of death.

I would of bet on the Sea Eagles to take it out this year too until they picked up all those injuries last week.

They need Ballin and King on deck. Losing Williams hurts too. He's an outstanding finisher, safe under the high ball and good in defense.

If Manly can finish fourth and take on the Dogs in the first round I'd be throwing a ton of cash on the Sea Eagles.

Apparently Ballin s ok.Kings being rested. Wolfman safe under the high ball?:?

 

[Packy]

I would happily face Manly in 1st week of the finals. Gotta beat em all anyway.

 

[Ronnie Dobbs]

The Broncos must win the game.

But they won't.

 

[eozsmiles]

If Manly or the Cowboys finish 5th they will spank whoever they see in week 1.

 

[Evenflow]

Centrebet have Manly clear favourites to win the Premiership.

Well if Centrebet have Manly clear faves then it's all over for the rest of the teams. Just finish up the season now, no chance of them not winning the comp.......

 

[Ziggy the God]

Manly will make the top 4.

It is whether we get knocked out by the Cowboys.

Anything can happen, but that would be the expectation I guess.

 

[Charlie124]

I dont think the Tigers will offer too much in the finals, whoever they come up against. Finishing fourth would be great but really, you have to treat every game as must win anyway so im not so fussed about it.

I think the Tigers are looking the best of the bottom three sides to cause some damage. They were a video referee's brain cell away from beating Canterbury last weekend. Brisbane have major work to do - fiddling with pivot and fullback to find form in August doesnt fill one with confidence for September.

Manly? Top 4 would help, obviously. The injuries suck, but their recent work has been great.

Last weekend proved that Canterbury are beatable.
