NRL ROUND 10 TIPPING PREVIEW
By W D Nicolson
A lot of people want to tell you that Melbourne's winning run comes to an end this week against the Sharks... but they are all on the good stuff, especially if Paul Gallen doesn't in fact play.
But we do like at least two genuine upsets this weekend - read on to find out which two we declared as special fried rice in Round 10.
And it looks like Tautau Moga might finally début!

Bench: L Capewell, J McGuire, M Gillett, B Te’o.
[Team Changes - Peter Wallace will miss with a badly swollen groin and Ben Hunt will deputise once more at halfback. Luke Capewell has been named as the new utlity cover on the bench. Andrew McCullough picked up an ankle injury against the Warriors but should play. Petero Civoniceva has also announced his retirement from the game at the end of the season.
]
MAN: B Stewart, J Taufua, J Lyon (c), S Matai, D Williams, L Foran, D Cherry-Evans, J King (c), M Ballin, B Kite, A Watmough, J Buhrer, G Stewart.
Bench: V Mauro, J Galuvao, D Lussick, G Rose, D Harrison, D Whare.
[Team Changes - David Williams is back on deck after a corked hammy, forcing Dean Whare to the bench. Joe Galuvao comes into the squad and there is still no Kieran Foran who is out with a dodgy hammy.
]
Listen to the Podcast for a full preview, but we like the Sea Eagles. Brisbane are a very good team but Peter Wallace has been a big reason for their form this year, Ben Hunt goes okay but Daly Cherry-Evans is playing behind a Manly pack that is aiming up again - go Manly.
TIPPING AND FANTASY LATE MAIL
SMH and Other Late Mail - Liam Foran will once again deputise for his brother at five-eighth for Manly, while Dean Whare remains on standby for David Williams who has a corked hamstring. Jamie Buhrer who moves to the bench and pushes Vic Mauro out of the 17. Brisbane could spring a surprise and play Kurt Baptiste ahead of Luke Capewell on their bench (or go with a fourth forward) but an ankle injury to Justin Hodges at training is unlikely to keep him out of the game (HODGES IS OUT! Gillett to centres). Sam Thaiday will play despite a rib complaint and Scott Anderson joins the 17 for Hodges.
