Just wondering, if we're naming a team that late, could all these "injuries" be a case of kidology?

Can just picture the likes of Buderus etc trotting out to warm up.

Got a gut feeling we'll win tommorow.

Hopefully this phrase pays off, like it did when I said it last time before the GF.

Disappointed but we gave it a good go. The first 10-15 minutes of second half killed us but from there we could have crumbled and lost by 50 and we came back at them which is credit to the boys. Losing Burrow was a major blow but hopefully he's back next week.
You've got to take your hat off to Manly, nobody would of beat them there just a great side and a brilliant game from Watmough, he steps like a halfback.

Totally out classed, they saw are weaknesses, and took full advantage of them. there 3 tries after the break were all down the left, after the drew watkins in. Our markers were simply poor, they never got back at the attack after the play the ball. Must say, Lee Smith had a great game, good attack and defence. Overall, the better team won.

Bugger...

Although the best performance I've seen senior put in for a long while.

At the risk of sounding like AP (where did he go? Banned?), Manly played with an 'intensity' that was superb to watch. I thought we made some poor decisions and a few mistakes that cost us field position/possession. We weren't that far apart, but some of their play in our 20m was outstanding.
Watmough is pure class.
Really enjoyed tonight, people have a go about the WCC but we had a good crowd, a good contest, an opportunity to see some of the world's best players and a chance to showcase our game.

Yeah second half Senior played well apart from a couple of mistakes but overall i thought Lee Smith was our best player. He seems to play well every week and i just hope the rumours about him going to RU are rubbish. Well done Smithy
