I wonder what Manly's game plan will be

  Definitely won't be kick high to Hayze's corner...no, definitely not that.

    No point, he's a giant that couldn't possibly be out jumped.

      Probably helps that Saab isn't around.

Matto starting & Niukore back. Great news.
Hopefully Sivo is right to go from extended bench.

  Sivo is playing NSW Cup for match fitness. Been named there.

So what's the haps in this game?

Are we going to win because we lost last week?

Or are we going to lose because we're expected to win?
The Captain May 17, 2022 at 4:09pm

Matto starting, wonder if we're seeing a changing of the guard. He's capable of being a devastating 13 if he can keep his form up. And if he works well in that spot it probably allows us to meet his salary expectations a bit better.

I just wonder if he can sustain his form long term or whether he's just playing for a contract payday and will then move back into cruise mode.
- Alfred Mateo > The Captain May 17, 2022 at 4:57pm
  
  I thought the same thing Captain. He has been exceptional this year and he's got the opportunity to make this spot his own for 80 mins.
  I personally think we get the best out of Lane playing shorter stints. He does some really good things but then goes missing. Sharing his time on the field with N Brown might work if Matterson can play for 80
