Half an hour gone nearly, and Doggies get the better start.

 

Even Stevens in the Dragons vs Broncos game Nabuli gets try soon after Daniel |Vidot opened the score for Broncos

[Graham]

Manly only 2 points down at half time after being out of it for much of the half.

[Graham]

After a poor showihg last week DCE seems spurred on by this week's publicity scoring a try and looking far more involved.

[Graham]

Second half just kicked off in Doggie v Manly game.

[Graham]

DCE carrying a foot injury but not holding him back too much currently.

[Graham]

Hiku in for try with a simple run in on a slow doggies line. Manly in front.Bulldogs have lost their way. 2 points in it.

[Graham]

Manly making more metres and showing more pace. Plenty of energy.

[Graham]

Moses Mbye is a special looking player. Just got Dogs back in front making a great break for Pritchard to get the try

[Graham]

Try converted.

[Graham]

Back to back tries. Dogs have woken up again. Curtis's Rona in for the try in the corner. That's eight already for him this season.

[Graham]

Doggies team try on counter attack. Length of field.Mbye in for try after slipping out of DCE attempted tackle.

[Graham]

Matai in for a try for Manly. Lucky ball that bounced back off the crossbar straight back into Manly hands. Amazing tactic! :-)

[Graham]

Jamie Lyon off for treatment. Doesn't look well.

[Graham]

4 mins to go. Doggies in again on wing for one that really settled it. Corey Thompson in for a try in corner. Manly look battle weary at the end.

[Graham]

Moses Mbye has caught the eye here in this Canterbury win. Lichea made 41 tackles tonight. Mbye chosen as man of match

[Farmduck]

Dogs did what was needed - scrape a win any way it takes while they're waiting to return to full strength.

[Graham]

It's throwing it down in Melbourne. Roosters just put their noses in front. Aubusson scored a try replying to Korobete's for Storm. Penalty to Roosters after some poor Storm play. Maloney puts Roosters 4 points up. They look well organised and on form in difficult conditions.

[Graham]

Roosters keeping the scoreboard ticking over ...yet another penalty goal. Storm struggling more with the conditions.

[Graham]

Roosters have the edge here in the first half. More possession where it counts.

[Graham]

Storm grab a try before half time. Handling and completion rate good in very wet conditions. Half time... scores level.

[Graham]

Storm nicked that in the last minute with a drop goal that was needed to separate these two teams. Rained heavily throughout. Cooper Cronk kicked the vital point. Storm looked to have won it wirh a try near the end but Roosters quickly replied with a try of their own. This was a close run game all the way . Roosters couldn't have done much more. Storm's never say die approach won the day ... just!

[Bourbon Rat]

Nearly choked on my drink when I heard Ashley the Klown request a look for a possible 8 point try - The smell of bias was thick in the air.

[Graham]

He and his touchie surely were in position to see what did and did not happen there. The touch judge was standing right over the action. Dafties!

[Farmduck]

Whatever else happens, this will be the wettest game of the year. Cronulla had an inch of rain today and it's still falling + wind 40-50kmph.

[Graham]

Kick off is minutes away in Monday's game between Cronulla and Souths
