Success certainly hasn't changed Manly coach Des Hasler.

Even after the biggest grand final win in rugby league history and a World Club Challenge triumph, hype-avoiding Hasler insists his side are not the favourites to win the 2009 NRL premiership.

"We can still fly under the radar," said Hasler with more than a hint of optimism.

"Melbourne is just on everybody's radar. Melbourne are probably the pick of the teams.

"Them and the Broncos probably deserve the favouritism."

Even Hasler knows the likelihood of the Sea Eagles slipping quietly through the NRL season is impossible, especially after becoming world club champions.

Des Hasler is dreaming if he thinks Manly can fly under the radar this year, because:

- Manly have played in the last 2 GF, winning 1
- Manly recorded the biggest ever GF win in the history of the game in 2008
- Manly lost very few games in 2008
- Manly became the first NRL side in 6 years to win the WCC

tell him he's dreaming [icon_razz1
