Manly Sea Eagles vs St George Illawarra Dragons Preview

Manly is the definition of a one-man team and that one man is going to be back this Friday night.

At the time of writing, Tom Trbojevic has been named in the Manly side for Friday night, backing up from State of Origin 48 hours before this game.

While some may consider it a risk, it is a necessary one to take as the Sea Eagles chase down a top four spot.

Having only failed to score in one of his nine appearances this season, it seems like a fait accompli that Tommy Turbo will score at least one try in this game.

With the line hovering around that dangerous 20 point margin, I’m happy to give that a wide berth and instead go for a try scoring play.

It’s a nice insurance policy against Trbojevic being a late out considering that could swing the game as well.
