Parramatta Eels vs Manly Sea Eagles Preview
The Parramatta Eels will look to continue their resurgence when they host the Manly Sea Eagles under Friday night lights at CommBank Stadium. A commanding 28-6 win over Newcastle last week lifted the Eels off the bottom of the ladder and reignited faint finals hopes, now just three points outside the top eight. Manly also impressed in Round 11, grinding out a 24-6 win over the Cowboys to strengthen their own top-eight position. Both sides will be impacted by Origin selections, with the Eels missing Mitchell Moses and Zac Lomax, while Manly loses skipper Daly Cherry-Evans and enforcer Jake Trbojevic. Dean Hawkins takes the reins at halfback for Parramatta, while Jake Arthur will line up against his former club in DCE’s absence. With a handful of fresh faces and plenty at stake, expect a spirited clash between two clubs eager to stay in finals contention.
