Reckon O'Neill will get the gig, as he has experience playing in the first team. Wouldn't mind seeing Niko play, heard some good things bout him.

Half time Storm 6 - Manly 6. Gotta say I'm pretty impressed so far, bit of rusty ball handling but our scramble defence is still awesome. Chase Stanley has been awesome when he isnt falling over injured lol. Jesse Bromwich looking great, Sika destructive, billy and coops haven't clicked yet. Great game to watch.
Oh man that feels so good! Stanley is a beast, just has to stay injury free.
Duffie was awesome in defense and that try saver on T-Rex was unbelievable.
I thought we started slow but slowly got into our rhythm. Widdop's try assist was Joey Johns like.

storm 18 - Womanly 6. lol at the commentators saying its cold Melbourne night its F$&cking 25 degrees at 9.30pm you Sydney tool. Players were sweating like a river. Chase Stanley = awesome, man of match for me. Is it just me or do the refs get worse every year lol. We were a bit rusty but gee our defence good as ever. All the backs played well Oneill Neilson Duffie. Don't know what happened to Quinn but he will struggle to get in team as will Champion. I still want to see Niko at some stage. Norrie & Bromwich were great as was Manu and Blair. Smith his usual awesome, Billy dangerous as always even when he hasn't played since four nations. Overall I'm rapt Manly will be a good team this year, and we are back baby.

The ref's were shit-house, so were Manly. Cherry-Evans did alright, Brett Stewart didn't get injured, but he was miles off Billy in terms of speed/involvement. Wouldn't have minded seeing Hopoate at fullback actually.
Jason King will get two weeks and George Rose is still a fat *lima lima lima duck*.
Chase Stanley looked in all sorts or trouble with his knee, hell of a game though! Duffie, O'Neil and Neilson all did nice things, Especially Neilson in defense. God I hope Sika stays injury free, he's such a weapon.
WE HAVE POINTS! WOO.
And Billy is still the best player in the world, he has lost nothing after not playing for 5 months.

Loved Neilson's game.
The game itself wasn't much to watch, but I thought we showed our trademark defensive game which,if it keeps up, will stand usin good stead.
Gee 2 points for the win feels good doesn't it?
lima lima lima duck I love this football club.
