Manly Sea Eagles vs Sydney Roosters Preview

Finals hopes go on the line in Saturday night’s blockbuster between 10th-placed Sydney Roosters and ninth-placed Manly Sea Eagles at 4 Pines Park. The stakes are high, with the Roosters aiming to join Manly on 24 competition points and keep their September push alive.

Manly’s brief resurgence – including upset wins over the Storm and Rabbitohs – came crashing down in a 42-4 drubbing by the Bulldogs. The loss of enforcer Haumole Olakau’atu to a season-ending injury adds further sting, with Corey Waddell stepping into the starting side.

The Roosters have dropped three of their past four, but there were signs of life in their narrow loss to the Storm. James Tedesco and Daniel Tupou rolled back the years, while Sam Walker continues to build confidence.

The Sea Eagles boast a 6-3 home record, but the Roosters have claimed five of their last seven on the road. Expect a tense, finals-like atmosphere in what shapes as a true 50-50 clash.
