Manly are focused on returning Brookvale Oval to its status as one of the NRL’s most feared grounds ahead of Thursday’s round seven clash with Parramatta.

Traditionally a fortress for the Sea Eagles, Manly struggled to post wins at Brookvale in 2015 as they missed the finals for the first time in 11 years.

Things haven’t got much better this season, Manly winger Jorge Taufua saying they had to quickly improve their 1-2 home record.
