NRL Game Guide- Manly vs. Brisbane

Manly vs. Brisbane- 23th September 7.45pm

Its official the biggest star in NRL is out for this week game this is a massive blow for the broncos and will put a massive hole in their side.

Manly look fit and ready and with a home final they look set to take this one out. They are quietly confident and are hopeful they can combat the Forward pack of the broncos. Corey Parker or Sam Thaiday will set to captain the team with Lockyer out this weekend. Manly still have a few guys out from suspension but they will be back soon.

This is still no decision on who will replace the great man but Matt Gillett looks set to take on the role and he seems like the broncos secret weapon. He was a gun five-eight when he was in the juniors. And it will be interesting to see how he goes and he could be the difference.

Prediction:

If the broncos are on fire straight away from get go they look set to damage the young manly side. However if Manly play on their terms and Gillett has no impact Manly will be in the Grand Final next weekend.
