OK, I asked this Q but it didn't appear! Here goes again?

Question

According to news sources, Des Hasler has given Beaver the job of containing Inglis in tonight's game. I have a lot of faith in Beaver, as do all Manly supporters, but what are your thoughts on the task ahead of him?

Answer 1

Beaver may have been given the job of containing Inglis but who the h**l is gonna contain the BEAVER???

Answer 2

(I hereby copy and paste my answer from your same question that did actually show up...)

Ha ha I read this in the Daily Telegraph this morning.

Personally I reckon poor old Beaver is going to have a pretty hard time keeping Inglis in check tonight, he's just not what he used to be and to give him the task of keeping one of the best players in the game is a pretty big ask.

Besides what about all the other great players on the Melbourne team who's going to be containing them?!

GO THE STORM!!

Answer 3

Inglis will $hit all ova him

Answer 4

You don't stop Inglis, you confine him at best. Manly need to get cut off his supply, pressure Cronk and Smith if possible, but they will be flirting with danger if they concentrate on GI, Izzy and Billy will drill holes in there defence if they are left unchecked, this is the huge advantage Melb have over all other teams, our scoring options, Turner, Quinn, Hoffman, J Smith, the list is endless..

Answer 5

1999 was the last time the storm beat manly at brookie ! I know sides love to keep such stats as this going so I have taken manly , a hard pick but stats are stats.

Beaver is a Legend of a player a loyal club man too  , but with the going down of the sun !! He is getting on has lost some pace but defence wise he is stout.

Manly 16 Storm 8

Answer 6

you can never stop greg inglis.. hes 1 of the best in the game but he can probably do his best to contain him because he is a great defender

Answer 7

While menzies is a consistantly good defender... how do you stop the unstoppable.. the best players of the game are made to look inept when inglis is their mark. I reckon manly will get them tonite but it wont be because menzies stops inglis.. maybe limiting his damage is a more likely outcome. And dont forget the storm has more strike players than just him... many teams make the mistake of concentrating their efforts on greg while israel,slater,cronk and smith are left to control the outcome of the game.

Answer 8

Being God, Beaver had planned things to turn out this way since the begining of time.
