Starting to get pumped now - four more sleeps! And coming round to the temperature theory. Or at least entertaining it. Anyway with this game played at night it will be no excuse. And after a shellacking like that I'm keen to see how they bounce back.

Did anyone at the game notice how long the teams warmed up? Lots of media about it but I'm still not convinced we were out there much longer.

On 100% League, BA said they cut the warm up short and were warming up for 17 mins. He said the change rooms at Brookvale are pokey and there was not enough room in the sheds to warm up.

In an interview BA said it was seventeen minutes. Said it was hotter in the change rooms than out on the ground. Implication that Manly disenabled the air conditioning in the visitors shed? They wouldn't do that, would they?

We should just shit all through their dressing room next time they play at our home ground.

I did the SCG / SFS tour about 15 years ago and only the home dressing room at the SCG had air conditioning in the members stand

He also said it was probably as hot in the change rooms as outside .... he could well have been talking shit, but thats what he said

Arthur's said it was 17 minutes. Is that a long time? I suppose so. However he also said it was hotter in the change room. How hot was the home team's change room at Brookvale?

Every player has a weakness, just like they have a strength. Surely bringing KE in for taka is beneficial to the team, even if it means taka is out in the centres
Why not interchange them? Or use Edwards in the middle? There's no need to have Takairangi in the centres just to fit him into the team.
