Round 4 of the NRL season continues this afternoon with the St George Illawarra Dragons and Manly Sea Eagles, coming to you from WIN Stadium in Wollongong. Join The Roar for live scores from 5:30pm (AEDT).
There are plenty of changes in the Dragons pack for Shane Flanagan, with Jack de Belin, Jesse Marschke and Raymound Faitala-Mariner going to the bench and Francis Molo, Jacob Liddle and Jaydn Su’A starting. Viliame Fifita is out entirely.
Manly front-rower Toafofoa Sipley will return to their pack after his suspension, elevating him from their extended bench to the interchange.
It is not yet clear who he will replace, though the obvious candidate would be Corey Waddell or Ethan Bullemor as forward options.
Prediction
The Dragons have been underwhelming over the past two weeks while Manly have been one of the form teams of the NRL. Sea Eagles by 16

Maybe a few of these Manly players should've followed the AFL example and been "medically retired" for that one. There was a fair bit of dope in their system.

A well deserved win to the Dragons. Congrats to their fans. As for Manly, all teams can have an off day. This was Manly's. They will bounce back. But not next week against the Panthers. That would be asking too much.

I'm a neutral and I enjoyed it.

That’s harsh.. I thought he an Koula were the only bright spots in a really grim day

Congrats David. Not a pretty second half but they were committed.

I only saw the last 20 minutes, my son legit asked if Manly were trying to throw the match. There needs to be an investigation :angry: (lol)

Not often I’ve said this over the last few years, but Saints actually defended their mistakes today. Ugly as all get out that 2nd half but I’ll take it.

Top 8 (maybe top 6) teams don't have consecutive weeks of self implosions. Bottom 8 teams do. That was disgraceful from both, luckily for Dragons we were worse

Roar Rookie
Thank god that’s over… well done Dragons, your blokes skills may have been pretty ordinary in parts but at least they played with heart, which can’t be said of that complacent mob of ours . Back to basics this week. Imagine taking that effort in against the Panthers… oh wait a minute :shocked:

Don't be too downhearted Manly fans, it appears your guys put in a shocker but that would be an aberration and likely linked to the exhausting disappointment of last week. Chin up, you'll be in the mood v Penrith at home next week.

I tipped Saints Albo. I must admit I tip them every week :laughing:

Absolute crap of a game, more mistakes then good play but I'll take the win with glory. Commiserations Manly fans today was not your day. HY, time for a drink.
