Right, so the Titans have been pissed on for the last 12 straight fucking games by left CTW players for 19 tries. At least one of these two have scored for the last five consecutive rounds for Manly. Pack it up, we’re done here.

Funnily enough Punters, right edge runners have actually had the most success out of any position against Manly in the last 6 games. The Titans right edge runner has scored the second most tries for them so far this year at 7, so Hau is definitely in the mix on any given week.

The Titans were pretty strong against opposition edge runners for the first half of the season actually, but it’s all gone to shit in recent weeks with second rowers bitchslapping them for 7 tries in the 5 rounds since last time they met the Sea Eagles. Manly’s edge runners have scored 12 on the season so far, but more importantly they’ve put in 4 tries in their last 3 matches. It was a tough slog for Manly last time around, but remember they were missing like 5 of their starting players. The Titans should cop a fuckin serve here.

The Sedan has been the most reliable option for the Sea Eagles recently, scoring 6 tries in their last 6 games, but honestly either of Manly’s wingers has scored every consecutive game since fuckin round 3, so you’re pretty safe with either of em in any given week. Most of the action against the Titans tends to come through opposition left CTW players, but Right wingers have still hit them for 9 tries and if Manly are extremely likely to pass that Steeden around if they’re in a mood, just ask the Tigers or the Dolphins, they’ll tell ya.
Jayden Campbell/Dean Iremea
Manly have exposed themself to be at least somewhat human in recent weeks after conceding 8 total tries to the Eels and Cowboys. That doesn’t sound like a lot for two teams but those 4 tries per game were double the average of the two they were rolling with prior to the last two rounds. Despite Manly’s staunch defence, they have still been routinely destroyed by right wingers for more than double the amount of tries than any other position (14). It’s still not a given every week though, with there also being 7 games where right wingers have turned up with their dick in their hand by the 80 min mark, but thankfully Manly have also been touched up by opposition halves for 5 tries in their last 6 games. Jayden has pulled 4 tries out of his dickhole in that same time, which is just as well because the Titan’s right winger has scored an extremely modest 3 on the season. To be fair, it’s Dean’s second game for the Titans, so he may still be an upgrade. The point is; Right wingers and 5/8s have scored the first opposition try against manly 6 times. Let’s leave it at that.
