Verrills was unsuccessful at the judiciary and will miss the following two matches.

I'm surprised but also glad to see Sorensen named for Penrith. I never did hear about his injury against Parramatta but watching it live I thought it was his season. He'll be a good addition to the Panthers and they dearly missed having him.

I believe they will be too strong for Parramatta but I don't think that's their strongest configuration. It's very close but the Panthers appear far more threatening with Crichton closer to the action and Tyrone May off the bench. May just troubles the defence more through the middle and can be an option close to the line which the Panthers sorely lacked against the Rabbitohs.

I'm keeping an eye on Ray Stone this weekend. For awhile I thought he was the definition of a bit player and the only moment I can remember was him pushing Oates over after Corey scored a consolation try. I remember it so vividly because Oates looked so shattered afterwards, I think that moment broke him.

Bring on the Hatred Games.
 
**** me everyone is upset about Verrills...I don't get it. A shoulder to the head isn't worth 1-2 weeks now? Give me a fucking break, how many weeks did Flegler cop for an arm around the chest which Sitili ducked his face into? Where was our uproar? If Sitili keeps his head up there is zero contact with the head from Flegs at all.

Yet now for a call which is pretty much totally consistent with everything else over the past few weeks everyone's saying we need to totally overhaul the system?! **** me dead, I do agree with them but this is a very mild case compared to some of the travesties visited on the game and particularly on our club by the match review/judicial system.

**** I hate all the bullshit around the game.
 
How do you even want either Manly or the Rorters to win this game tonight?

I don't mind some of the newer Manly guys. Garrick, Parker, Shuster and Keppie are good to watch so I'll go for them.

let's just hope that whoever wins gets decimated for their next game (judiciary-wise ... i'm not wishing injury on anyone)
 
I think Tommy T is a great player, but they go way over the top about him is just stupid. I was watching some clips of Greg Inglis yesterday and i was thinking under the current rules he would be so much more damaging that Turbo.
