Manly have twice blown bigger leads then what Newcastle did against the Storm. True the Knights did let in quite a few points against the Dogs but at least they still won.
We nearly blew it against the Dogs as well. We haven't scored a point in the last 20 minutes, and we've conceded four tries. That said, Manly are shit ****s.
Thats true but as I said least you still beat the Dogs. Whilst both dont seem to wanna play 80 Id rather tip Newcastle tbh.
I would've said tip Newcastle because at least they can attack whereas look at Manly's halves.. but after their effort against Melbourne, and with the home advantage, gonna have to go with Manly.
Manly. I quite like their team with Hodkinson at halfback. I'd actually play Lyon at five-eighth and Foran at centre though. Also seems they've dropped Seu Seu too which makes them stronger through the middle.
Knights. Done well so far, and Manly can't win without Stewart. Especially since they ****ed off Orford...
Tuimavave in, simple hit-up off a tap after turning down a shot at goal. Rodney and Ballin miss him and he goes over under the posts.
