Message: [QUOTE="Big Pete, post: 2682857, member: 1899"] 3-9 The bye next week will inflate their position before they face off against... Wests Tigers (H) South Sydney (A) Cronulla (H) Gold Coast (A) North Queensland (H) Warriors (A) Brisbane (H) South Sydney (H) Canberra (A) Parramatta (H) Sydney (H) Cronulla (A) They have to go at least 8-4 to stand any chance. It's certainly achievable but it looks unlikely based on their performances. A lot of their players are capable of more but they're not playing with any confidence. Kieran Foran in particularly looks like he's got his mind set on Parramatta. Which reminds me, how nervous would you be as a Parramatta supporter right now? They have practically invested the same amount of coin into Foran over a smaller time-frame. He doesn't exactly fit into their structures as is, so you would have to hope he pulls a Maloney and regains form at his new club. I was surprised with their performance against the Broncos. I thought their forwards actually did a reasonable job in the middle. However, their backs made a number of coach-killing mistakes that let them down on numerous occasions. This may sound harsh, but Lyon's injury maybe a blessing if it allows Trbojevic to reclaim his spot on the wing. Outside of getting injured against Penrith, he hasn't put a foot wrong in first grade and has shown more than the likes of Taufua and Hiku. As far as I'm concerned, the backs represent the key for Manly. If they can produce the type of form they're capable of they could carry the Sea Eagles to an unlikely finals berth. But I doubt it.
