WiL R10 // Sea Eagles 15-14 Knights @ Brookvale // Mon 7pm

Eagles by 20+ I think

 

[voltron]

nathan ross didnt play for the NSW Cup team today though
do we know why?

 

[Frederick]

Houston apparently to start in Scott's place.

Just give us the f**king spoon already

 

[Swarzey]

Dear f**king god no. I don't care that Houston is playing, we pretty much have little choice, but f**k, he's not an edge player. At least he isn't going to starve McManus and Mamo of ball.

 

[Noname36]

Hopefully he just starts for the tough opening exchanges then moves into the prop rotation and Tapine can play on the edge. It's not like we have any other edge forwards unfortunately.

 

[Spot On]

I don't care. Play with 16 if we have to. Chris Houston can never play first grade again. I'm never, ever going to forget that attempted tackle on Jamie Soward last week. Just don't do it Wayne. Pleeeease.

 

[Allstar Knights]

Wayne better move Tapine to the edge at some point. Last week he played in the middle and still looked the goods, but I reckon he'll look even better out wider with ball in-hand.

 

[Burns]

Newcastle Herald reports Roberts might not play due to a hip injury he suffered at training. Travis Waddell did not play NSW cup yesterday and joined the squad. Guilty expected to go to Halfback, Clydesdale to Hooked and Waddell to cover him.

This game is going to be hilarious.

 

[Chicken_Hunter]

I have the Benny hill theme going through my head imagining the game.

 

[Noname36]

Lol

 

[Zoidberg]

:lol: oh we're such a joke. I wish I could find it funny.

I can see us playing well tonight, but still getting beaten by 20.

 

[cram]

If we get away with only a 20 point loss this will be a bonus I reckon.

 

[RHCP]

:lol:

It can always get worse.

 

[Joker's Wild]

The footy gods hate Newcastle

 

[Frederick]

That same article said that Scott was to play centre before he was ruled out

[Bring it home Knights]

IF Houston is played as a wide running second rower, then it is safe to say that Wayne has officially lost his mind.

It wouldn't surprise me if this game is closer than a lot of people are giving us credit for. Manly have 3 of their biggest players out in Lyon, Stewert and Foran. Plus their pack isn't as big as it's been over the last few years. The knights minus BJ have their strongest back line and we have size in Snowden, Mason and Fa'alogo in the team. Scott is a big loss, but hopefully Smith is a late inclusion. I'm not expecting us to win, but I haven't ruled it out.

Roberts may also be out.

Manly almost beat Storm at home with these players out.

Add to that the drama going on behind closed doors which is clearly have an effect on the team if last week is anything to go by.

It'll be a miracle if we aren't 16th on the ladder by 9pm.

I almost jumped on that a few days back, was paying well over $2 at that point. Easy money.
