Really don't want the Sea Eagles to make the 8 but there's not many better sights in Australian sport than seeing the Bunnies lose.
Pretty nervous, we were off the pace last week and manly were running hot. If we show up, our forwards will make it an easy win
Manly can really struggle at times against teams with powerful middle forward rotations. Last year that would've meant Souths by 30 but they've missed Sam up the guts even more than I expected, particularly recently. Really hard game to tip IMO, leaning Souths though.
This is such an odd opinion. There is definitely not such a huge gap between the forward packs that Souths 'showing up' should lead to an easy win. Especially considering Manly are so, so much better out wide and in the halves.
