Manly Sea Eagles vs South Sydney Rabbitohs Preview
Manly will look to keep their finals hopes alive when they host a depleted and out-of-sorts South Sydney at 4 Pines Park on Saturday afternoon. The Sea Eagles bounced back from a poor fortnight with a much-needed 28-10 win over the Tigers, with the gamble of shifting Tom Trbojevic to centre and Lehi Hopoate to fullback showing early promise.
Souths have now lost five straight and are languishing near the foot of the ladder. Despite some spirited performances, last week’s 50-28 collapse to the Dolphins highlighted defensive frailties and fatigue. The absence of Latrell Mitchell and Cody Walker leaves the Rabbitohs short on attacking spark.
Manly has lost eight of their past nine to Souths, but with no Origin disruptions and a strong home record – five wins by double digits – the Sea Eagles are well placed to notch another vital win and keep their finals dream flickering.
