I'll buck the general trend - I'll be shouting for Leeds tonight. That said, I can't see past a win for Manly.

I think it will be to close to have a bet on,but I would have a bet on Big Bad Bailey getting away with it next week if he gets up to his tricks.
Watmough to sort him out,hopefully. |

| Quote: THE HINDLEY WARRIOR "I totally agree. It needs freshening up somehow. And the Sky presentation will be the usual predictable cr@p, which doesn`t help.
Maybe a neutral venue in the Southern Hemisphere with a professional TV commentary from Rabbits, Sterlo and Gus will help raise the profile.'"
To freshen it up I think it needs to be played at the end of the season rather than the beginning of the following season and also alternate between northern and southern hemispheres. Even though the Aussie teams have started bringing effectively full-strength squads they still treat it as a pre-season game. |

If the world club challenge was played on a level playing field then the Australian side would nearly always win.
Manly are a much better side than Leeds, but due to the handicap of the aussies not having match practice, it gives Leeds a chance.

Leeds forward passing will win them the game, they must have got away with 17 so far, also nice to see Shithouse bailey getting man handled though it was a bit dangerous

How did Ablett get away with the knock on in the build up to Halls 2nd?
They've had the bounces of the ball we craved last year against St George but sadly never got.
Leeds game to lose now.

If you don't bother to go to the game when you live in the locality then you are not really a fan and therefore your views are invalid. It's simple.:icons39ad_files/4821-1859san_c-msnicons.jpg |

Realistically, he is not someone you need to worry about, other than the cheap-shots... |

Well this is the part of the game everyone expected Manly to fade away in. Just losing their way a bit though Leeds.

Leeds have got away with a couple of blatant knock ons that would be given all day long in superleague.
Both resulted in try's and that's been the difference.
Rob Burrow is a super player though. A real shame he wasn't fit for England last year. I just hope he's in this form come world cup time next year.
