of course it will.

you dont win NRL titles by fluke and you dont win NRL titles in march or april either.

We could be heading for our 4th loss in a row this coming weekend ,if they get done which i have this feeling they might ,then it will be a struggle street even if if you don't win titles in march or april.

have a look at how many games the roosters lost in 2002 at the start of the season (they year they won the competition).

you dont look at form really until round 10.

and the real teams dont emerge until round 20.

its round 3 FFS.

True but ,It's always good to get some good wins in the early stages which is very important.And if they missed the top 8 then you will look back and go oh yeah that's what stuffed us up.


Some teams ,i know infact the broncos don't remember when but they lost like about 8 games in a row then went onto win the GF if I'm correct? but the broncs were a great side back then . On the other hand Manly have issues on and off the bloody field.

And what about David and Tony Williams, when are they back?????

They will be back when they're better.

manly have 2 key players - watmough and stewart.

they are badly missing stewart.

robertson? is an awful fullback. he doesnt know where to position himself in attack or defence.

watmough makes a break vs warriors and normally stewart is off his shoulder for the try. this time watmough had no support

manly have lost 2 games by small margins and last night they shouldve belted penrith

they had 7 line breaks to 3 at one stage but just kept dropping the ball

20% completion rate for most of the 2nd half.

penrith didnt win it, manly lost it

I say 2 weeks mate.

poor manly

David Williams is out until Round 8 ish.

how did graham play for the panthers? more to the point did they give him many minutes off the bench?

came on after 20 minutes or so as elliot had enough of summt

did play well
