[Emma]

MANLY-WARRINGAH have lost superstar fullback Brett Stewart for five months after scans revealed his knee injury was far worse than first feared.

Karma.

At least he'll be free to turn up to his court case now

Well that represents a significant hurdle for Manly making the eight now. They seem to have real difficulty scoring without Stewart.

I'm glad

Poor bloke. Was a good effort by him to stop Lote love or hate Manly. Stewart is the 1 bloke who i can stand.

 

[Fozz]

Oh, little guy. The tears aren't comin'! The tears just aren't comin'!

This is excellent news. I put a decent amount of money on manly to miss the 8 this season. I think they were going to struggle to make the 8 this year anyway with the loss of Orford, but this will make it even harder for them

It will be interesting to see whether that monday night game is his last ever in the NRL, personally, 20 weeks seems like a very light sentence (not that I'm passing judgment prior to trial or anything)

To be honest this sucks. If Brisbane are to win this year's premiership i want them to beat every team at their best. Not every team minus their best.

Without Stewart not only do Manly destroy their chances of winning games but we the fans are robbed of seeing our teams beat a full Manly outfit. Manly now have an excuse to fail.

Draggz, ever heard the expression that "My favourite is Brisbane and any team playing Manly", you seriously cannot lament any loss Manly any more then a loss Melbourne suffers

But i do know what you're driving at

I don't care who is out, just as long as we win & don't have players out.

It just means we have fitter players.
