Team vs Manly

[BUDDY]

With JWH and Pearce out and potentially Moa and Jenko if he gets cited for that high shot our depth will be really tested.
Matagi to replace JWH and who else comes onto the bench to replace SoH?
If Jenko misses a week do they put Maubs at centre and forget about a utility on the bench?
Does Elliot move to centre and Latrell make his debut?

[Tommy Smith]

I expect a win next week will seal a top two spot as one of Broncos at Souffs or Cowboys at Storm will lose.

It's going to be very tough though. It could be a real Frankenstein of a line-up.

We'll have to see what happens with Jenko and Napa first.

yep the judiciary is a worry, they could really bend us over if they want to, after the events of this week you would think if they do charge Napa we would contest it and likely win.

What the hell was Napa put on report for? His arm was outstretched, so you no way was it a shoulder charge.

the key will be if he gets charged what the actual charge is, if they go the shoulder charge route he would get off but if they go the broader dangerous contact charge it might be harder to beat.

Kane Evans could potentially be forced to sit out one week as well. I anticipate that Michael Jennings will be suspended so perhaps Latrell Mitchell will debut.

[roostersrule2]

Great to see Moa back, hopefully he plays because Manu is pretty bad.

Maubs at centre is the safest option.

[JAF]

Strong team, as expected

[Darkone]

As most of us expected,

Moa returns, Maubs to centre, McRuck 14, Matagi 17

[OMR]

I would've liked to have seen the young centre Manu play and keep Aubs as the utility, and drop McIllwirk as he hasn't impressed me at all this year.
