It's too hard to win twice in a row now. If the Storm and Roosters couldn't do it in the last decade, Manly won't.

Your job is to say to yourself on a job interview does the hiring manager likes me or not. If you aren't a particular manager's cup of tea, you haven't failed -- you've dodged a bullet.

The problem will be the lack of credible challenger - Melbourne apart - would not be surprised to see a repeat of the GF of the last 2 seasons

hes doing pre season training.

if he can get through that the NRL will be a walk in the park


Still begs the question - if the comp is so fast and physical how can a 35 year old expect to contribute much?

This is based on last year? Quite a few teams are looking very different this year, I don't know how anyone could be so sure before the season has started.

OK - deluded logic in my view - given the fanfare Jones has received it is unlikely he would not complete pre-season you can practise all you like but it is a different thing on the field - given Jones hasn't played in the NRL for 4 years and he is mid 30s it would suggest he will struggle with the physicality and the speed if the NRL is as physical and fast as you would have us believe !!!- but there you go
