We will not survive

If BA decides to play Fergo, Waqa and what some people are calling JA on the right edge of defence, we'll see the same Parra leaking points big time.

Hope BA shows sense and plays Marata at centre when his suspension is up.

JA was good for his debut but missed 5 tackles. Not good enough for NRL level footy. He needs to beef up before becoming a regular. I've no issue him playing until DB is back but when his suspension is up we need him for his immaculate defence.

  • Next week we play the Silvertails.

    One suspects If Waqa plays like he did today, Tommy T will tear us a new one on that edge.

    • Yeah not sure if a week is enough time to fix waqa. Actually who are we kidding?! The problem has been there two years. Des won't do much video this week. He'd already know who they are gonna target.

    • This

  • I've penned us in for a loss already tbh.

    Waqa is a turnstile. Big loss losing Marata.

    • Agree. If Blakes stays in the team, we will get well and truly carved up!

  • Fergo has been doing well. Waqa has always been a turnstile and I don't think he'll keep Marata out of that spot.

    He's got one more week to stand up. Competition for spots is a good thing. If Waqa leaks points next week we will move back to the winning formula and he can go fix his defence in reserves.

    Jake did fantastically well for an 18 year old debutant. He was targeted big time and he responded well.

  • Who else is available besides Blake?

    • Who cares?  Placing a stump in the ground would be more effective.

  • Yeah unfortunately today showed how much Marata adds to the side in attack and defence unfortunately we are stuck with waqa in the team.

    I've got Sunday written down as a loss I think Manly are just behind Penrith in terms of best performing teams.
