HALF-TIME at Gosford. Yep, no-one does siege mentality quite like the Sea Eagles. They've turned in their best 40 minutes of the season to lead the table topping Broncos by 20 heading into the sheds. The Broncos on the other hand have probably turned in their worst 40 since the opening rounds. Non existent line speed and some poor last tackle options are hurting their chances in this one. Chances are a vintage Wayne Bennett spray will be taking place right now so stay tuned for the second half. A comeback won't be out of the question...

LATE MAIL SEA EAGLES - Steve Matai has been ruled out and will be replaced by young gun Tom Trbojevic who had an outstanding game in the 20's last week, running for over 400 metres and scoring 4 tries. He's simply too good for them down there and will be looking to stamp himself in the 1st grade team with a strong showing tonight.

Welcome to Central Coast Stadium, Gosford, where the Manly Sea Eagles will tackle the Brisbane Broncos. It's 11th v 1st, but there's plenty on the line which should make this an absorbing contest. The Broncos will be looking to further their credentials of winning the Minor Premiership with a victory, whilst the Sea Eagles will be looking to move within one win of the top 8. It was another week of off field distractions for Manly, where the news of coach Geoff Toovey being sacked for the 2016 season was made official, but no team galvanizes together more than the boys from the Northern Beaches ensuring this one should be a cracker!
