Manly Sea Eagles team news
After not featuring last week with a groin problem, Manly Sea Eagles will once again be without Jamal Fogarty for this one. Whilst the halfback was named in the squad, he has failed to recover in time.
Squad: Tolutau Koula, Jason Saab, Clayton Faulalo, Reuben Garrick, Lehi Hopoate, Luke Brooks, Jamal Fogarty, Taniela Paseka, Brandon Wakeham, Ethan Bullemor, Haumole Olakau'atu, Ben Trbojevic, Jake Trbojevic, Jake Simpkin, Nathan Brown, Jackson Shereb, Siosiua Taukeiaho, Blake Wilson, Joey Walsh, Josh Feledy, Zach Dockar-Clay, Simione Laiafi
Brisbane Broncos team news
Deine Mariner, Adam Reynolds and Kotoni Staggs are all out for Brisbane Broncos, hardly ideal for a side whose momentum took a big hit last time out following defeat at Sydney Roosters.
Squad: Reece Walsh, Josiah Karapani, Jesse Arthars, Gehamat Shibasaki, Antonio Verhoeven, Ezra Mam, Thomas Duffy, Ben Talty, Cory Paix, Jack Gosiewski, Xavier Willison, Jordan Riki, Patrick Carrigan, Josh Rogers, Preston Riki, Va'a Semu, Aublix Tawha, Hayze Perham, Phillip Coates, Jaiyden Hunt, Ben Hunt, Kane Bradley
Manly Sea Eagles vs Brisbane Broncos prediction
A close game is on the cards between these two clubs, who are both sat on ten points as it stands, although Brisbane Broncos have played a game more than Manly Sea Eagles. The latter were victorious in their last home fixture but since then have been beaten away to Penrith Panthers in agonising fashion. But they could still take positives from their performance against a stacked Panthers team.
Brisbane Broncos do not have fond recent memories of Brookvale Oval, which has been a house of horrors for them for a long time now. You have to go back to 2010 for the last time Brisbane won at this venue and that tips the scales considerably in Manly Sea Eagles’ favour. Backing them is a move worth making.
