THE TEAM NEWS

WESTS TIGERS

  • Wests Tigers produced one of their better performances of the year to date as they pushed Parramatta Eels close in their latest contest and will hope to build on that on the back of their bye.
  • The Tigers remain without a win this season which sees them rooted to the foot of the ladder and they have suffered a massive blow with Adam Doueihi ruled out of the year after rupturing his ACL.

Starting 13: Bula, Staines, To’a, Kepaoa, Tupou, Wakeham, Brooks, Utoikamanu, Koroisau, Klemmer, Papali’i, Bateman, Pole – Interchanges: Laurie, Ofahengaue, Twal, Talau – Reserves: Seyfarth, Blore, Matamua, Nofoaluma, Simpkin

Unavailable: Brent Naden (Injured), Adam Doueihi (Injured)

MANLY SEA EAGLES

  • Manly Sea Eagles ended a run of three matches without a win as they produced a superb display to overcome Melbourne Storm last week with their defence finally clicking.
  • The Sea Eagles have struggled to limit their opponents so far this term but looked very good against strong opposition and they are boosted here with five-eighth Josh Schuster returning after missing three games.

Starting 13: T. Trbojevic, Saab, Parker, Harper, Garrick, Schuster, Cherry-Evans, Paseka, Croker, J. Trbojevic, Olakau’atu, Bullemor, Aloiai – Interchanges: Fainu, Keppie, Woods, Sipley – Reserves: Johns, Weekes, Condon, Chan Kum Tong, Tuipulotu

Unavailable: Tolutau Koula (Injured), Ben Trbojevic (Injured), Karl Lawton (Injured), Raymond Tuaimalo Vaega (Injured), Tolutau Koula (Injured), Kelma Tuilagi (Injured)

THE PREDICTION

Wests Tigers remain the only side in the NRL without a win so far this season after they fell to defeat against Parramatta Eels in their most recent contest. It has been a woeful run for the Tigers whose losing streak now stands at 11 matches stretching back to last season. On the flip side, Manly Sea Eagles got back to winning ways last week with an eye-catching victory over Melbourne Storm and the away side are likely to back that up with another success here.
