Gives us more grunt off the bench defensively in particular, which was a worry last week. Good calls, I wonder how the death riders will spin it lol

Glad BA listened to us experts

No he’s stubborn and doesn’t make changes

stinker of a day

apparently they asked Barrett about it, he said the hotter the better

I'm sure Taupau and Fonua Blake agree... They bludge when it's ten degrees, they're flat out going to die if it's 35 plus

 

[TheParraboy]

Tim Mannah won the toss, and we will bat

 

[Bazal]

Tim Mannah won the toss, and we will bat

Great decision. Make them run around in the field all day!

 

[strider]

Damnit ... we should have put them in and then ambushed them in the 2nd innings

Good point. I didnt think of that

I too like the look of those changes.

We will lose nothing in defence as our starters are subbed. And in this heat the speed of smith coming on to tiring forwards will be potentially massive

 

[Gazzamatta]

Better balanced side providing Taka and Evans do their job early. Fire up Matagi.

 

[crocodile]

I predict a stunning loss. Every time I predict a win we get done. So a loss it is.

 

[strider]

I like freddy's strategy with the weather better than barretts ... ie dont mention it as opposed to saying hotter the better - if you say that you are thinking about how hot it is

 

[JohnStoppafarty]

I hate these merkins with an unnatural passion. I hate them more than anything on this earth. I'd like to take to them with an AR15. I can't like anyone I know who goes for them even if they are a good person. f**k these merkins. COME ON PARRA FFS WIN THIS!!!!

 

[strider]

I noticed manlys player numbers are at about 600 ... whereas ours are close to 800 .... we have used 200 more players than them after coming into the league at the same time .... i assume they maybe dont include any northern eagles players???

 

[I'm a loser baby...]

We're gonna f**ken smash 'em!! You heard it here first.

My brother is a Manly fan.

I've not spoken to him in about 20 years.
