I know Bellyache will do what he does every week and announce the same team before Monday night, but seriously for the sake of the team, something has to be done. Here is how I hope it lines up against Manly.

1. Billy Slater
2. Sisa Waqa
3. Will Chambers
4. Junior Sa'u (comes in for Fonua while Juzzy moves to the wing)
5. Justin O'Neill
6. Brett Finch (if the rumour on Monday Night with Matty Johns that his nose is broken isn't true, he has to come into the team)
7. Cooper Cronk
8. Jesse Bromwich
9. Cameron Smith (C)
10. Bryan Norrie (needs to lift a bit, keeps getting flattened by big hits)
11. Kevin Proctor
12. Ryan Hoffman
13. Tohu Harris

14. Jason Ryles
15. Junior Moors
16. Lagi Setu
17. Kenny Bromwich/Mitch Garbutt or Slade Griffin (can't decide)

No idea what to expect. This game on a Monday night is also a joke.

I think Widdop might get a stay of execution for at least one more week because of Finchys broken schnoz, but Fonua definately needs a week in reserves and O'Neill needs to go back to the wing. Setu needs to come back on the bench and I would also add Vave.

O'Neill MUST return to his best position which is on the wing with Sau slotting into the centres in place of Fonua who needs a few games in NSW Cup to regain his confidence. Widdop is definitely on thin ice (did hear he may have suffered a broken nose on the weekend) then he should be seriously considered to replace Widdop who's been far from good this season.

Hopefully Vave and/or Hinchy are late inclusions on Monday too.

Same team will be named no doubt. Don't wanna let Manly know what we're doing.

Absolutely,.great looking team there - and the storm old boys probably would've won the last two games with ease! I watched some old games recently and had forgotten how much I liked robbie ross - amazing player, and i highly doubt billy would be the number one number one he is today without robbie!

As for manly, surely our bench will be bigger than it has been recently..can't afford to play them with only two bigs on our bench.

The Manly story - Manly co-captain's shoulder surgery
The Melbourne story - No alarm bells for Storm skipper Smith

I think both stories are full of shit ::) Must be a slow RL news day.

I just hope Bellyache picks the right team this week, just hate being beaten by those scum from Manly, more than any other team!
