Good Luck this weekend guys :)

I'll be making the trip out ot Parra Stadium to watch the game, i'm always nervous coming into Parra games, you always seem to have the wood over us.

It's funny though, i was looking at the table 1 or 2 rounds into the comp and thought "we get to play parra when Hindmarsh is on NSW duty" but now we (deservedly mind you) have 4 players up for selection and imo Kite, Kennedy and Watmough will all be in the 17 man squad.

Anyway, you guys have hit a good patch of consistant form! however the bye has been the demise of 90% of teams this year. Can you break the hoodoo against a weakened Manly team???? IMO you will, but i always hold out hope for my lads :) we are playing with plenty of confidence and defending like champions.

I'd expect the team to look something like this:

1.Stewart
2.Donald
3.Stepehnson
4.Matai
5.Hicks
6.Witt
7.Monaghan
8.King
9.Randall
10.Leuluai
11.Menzies
12.Harris
13.Hill

14.Dunley
15.Bryant
16.Williamson
17.Curtis

Good Luck guys and let the best team win (and not be ruined by dodgy referee's)

p.s. Where is the best place to sit at the ground?

Cheers

Matt

Just love these Eels/Manly games, cant wait. There didnt really seem to be that many Manly fans last night at the dogs game, do you think many will travel to parra?

ummmmm i would think so.

Saturday 5.30 games aren't normally the most populated. But i expect many to travel out to parra then kick on afterwards (win or lose)

Excellent. Hope we get at least 18000.

The last time Parra played Manly with Hindmarsh on Origin duty

Parramatta 52
Manly 12

also coming off the by there have been 3 winning sides (Raiders beating Knights, Tigers beating Bulldogs and Storm beating Souths) and 6 losing sides.

Since when does 6 wins from 9 = 90%

Been looking forward to this game for weeks..

Got roped into my cousins 18th instead..Not f**king happy at all.

The loss of the backrow will hurt, but Willow,Harris and Stewart are all capable of doing the job successfully.

Don't forget Leuluai is back too..
