Owwwh ... we don't feel very well (just in case we lose to a second-rate Superleague team).

excuses started already. must be worried about losing to a team in a second grade comp

I don't think they realise how much respect they lose with stuff like this. We regard their skills with awe, and admire their sporting ethos. But there's an awful lot we Brits could teach them about sportsmanship.

... like losing with dignity.

Or not making excuses, which, whether you like it or not, is laudible.

I really do hope Leeds show em who is boss, I would love for us to start playing it over in Austrailia though, I still think Leeds would win.

They don't care or value the cup as anything other than a pre-season warm-up they are obliged to take part in.

They have already stated that the kids will play the first half, now who would play youngsters in a competition that supposedly crowns the winners world champions?

Would they play the youngsters to make sure everybody 'gets a go' in the NRL GF? No, they just don't care.

That big slash I did in their pea soup must be working.

I think the Manly coach was referring to the warm up game against Harlequins when he said that the kids will play the first half.
