We don't beat Manly very often, here's hoping but not very confident.
This will be a tough game for the Warriors, hopefully the forwards can dominate and create a platform for Johnson / Green to sparkle.
Also, the soft belly in defence which has crept back into the game needs to be eliminated.
Hopefully, the weekend off will have freshen the team up.

Any time we beat Manly is a bit special....here is hoping.
Having RTS out really puts us on the backfoot...the problem being try line defence.
Hiku doesn't know where to position himself to plug the gaps...I would suggest that he play up in the line on the left so that when we slide he can plug the gap between Green and Mannering....i.e. pick a spot rather than being caught nowhere.
The problem of course is that HIKU needs minding in his usual spot let alone defending elsewhere.
Having Johnson back strengthens the right shoulder of the middle third...that is the good news....his defence has been missed most of all the facets of the game he brings.
Our forwards should go better with Johnson at DH too and generally calling runners into the ball to punch some space and set up for SJ to spread to that lethal right edge.
I'd have Manly as favorites for this one....however if our forwards can kick up a gear and run some lines....it could be close....to close to call....depending on who shows up.

No RTS..
Playing an away game in NZ..
SJ’s 150th match..
All signs are pointing to disappointment so I’ve put $100 funny money on the Eagles to win. That usually guarantees a Warriors win!!

We’ll be right .And guess what the boys to take it out by 6 
Heart say's Warrior's, sadly head say's Manly....
Not sure what's going on with us, the games we have lost has taken away my confidence, and I'm not even in the team!
I think because we have lost by big margins..... anything can happen I guess, so fingers crossed we get it together today.

I feel ya. I am suprised at how much my confidence dropped as well. Regardless of injuries the boys should still show up with energy which they didn't. That is what is sending alarm bells at the moment
Fusitua to score a double and get 2 more disallowed.
SJ to carve up.
Green to excel coz he's not the expected saviour.
Forwards are waiting for someone else to lead from the front.

Clear
Concise
Accurate, and to the point
Jonno, you’re fired
Welcome Rizzah. Our new weather expert.
We haven't seen any sun yet today and it's pretty cold, no rain
I guarantee Jazz won’t score today
I will dead set shit the bed if Tof tramples us. Hoping for the attitude they showed at the start of the year not the soft underbelly of the last 5 years
Really don’t know what to expect- despite some disappointing game we still haven’t lost 2 in a row.
Need Johnson to have a massive game

I will shit on Kearney like fly on shit if Tof has a big one against us.
Fire up boys
