Manly’s finals credentials face a stern examination against the reigning premiers as NSW’s Origin stars look to put the disappointment of Wednesday’s loss behind them.
The early Sunday game has become a bit of a thriller, with Newcastle scoring late and pushing for another in the dying minutes, with Melbourne leading 34-28.
Club officials tried to contact Smith during the meeting on multiple occasions but he did not respond until later, informing the Roosters that he did not have his phone on him.In today’s earlier game the Melbourne Storm look in control against the Newcastle Knigths heading into the final 10 minutes, with the Storm holding a 34-22 advantage after leading 18-12 at the break.
Michael Maguire has moved to explain why NSW skipper Jake Trbojevic was restricted to playing just 29 minutes in Wednesday night’s State of Origin opener.The NSW coach came in for criticism over his use of the Manly workhorse in the Blues’ 38-10 defeat, while questions have been asked over whether Maguire should persevere with Trbojevic for the must-win game two at the MCG on June 26.
“Jake plugs up the middle defensively, which then gives you better field position, but at the time we needed to go after points.
