39' Tigers miss their chance but may get another
S
By Simon Smale
Luai attempts a neat grubber through for May, but it is slapped out for a goal-line drop out.
Incredibly, Manly go short.
The Tigers win it, and get another penalty!
38' Penalty Tigers
S
By Simon Smale
Last chance for the Tigers before half time.
Jake Trbojevic was offside for the Sea Eagles.
The Tigers will have a chance inside the Sea Eagles 10.
33' Clayton Faulalo scores!
S
By Simon Smale
Very, very nice from the Sea Eagles.
A brilliant try, Haumole Olakau'atu bursting through one tackle, getting the ball away and then releasing Faulalo who races through to score.
BUT HANG ON!
Faulolo has gone down as he's been tackled over the line and is struggling with his ankle a bit.
He looks a bit sore.
The kick is good, the score is 24-6, a deserved 24-6 too in favour of Manly.
31' Penalty Manly
S
By Simon Smale
Oh that's brilliant from Clayton Faulalo.
Jock Madden kicked at wonderful ball for a 40:20 and it was out for all money but for a superb save by Faulalo at the back, diving and flicking the ball back in before regathering.
However, Madden rather ruins his good work with a swinging arm high shot on Faulalo.
28' Knock on Tigers
S
By Simon Smale
Luai looked to move the ball wide quickly, with Saab just a little bit out of position.
However Ethan Roberts got his hand in the way of a rather loose pass and it's knocked on
The Sea Eagles have a scrum on their attacking 40.
27' Penalty Sea Eagles
S
By Simon Smale
The play of the ball is horrible by Olakau'atu, but the referee rules not clearing the ruck.
That's a poor decision for mine - but the Tigers don't challenge.
They will have to defend now though as Manly kick the ball towards half way.
23' Try Tigers!

By Simon Smale
Good football from the Tigers.
Luai is key, passing to Taylan May who drags Saab out to him
The pass out to Luke Laulilii is good and he races to the line to score.
Lovely stuff from the Tigers, a set play that they are finally able to implement with the ball in a dangerous position.
There are a lot of empty seats at Lang Park at the moment, but most of those that are occupied appear to be occupied by Tigers fans, who roar their approval.
The kick is good and it's 18-6!
22' Penalty Tigers!

Now they have a chance to get into the Sea Eagles defensive zone.
Ethan Bullemor with a strip.
AND THEY TAKE IT QUICKLY!
Tigers defence is MIA

Arvo Simon. Did the Tigers defence miss the plane up to Brisbane?
- KB
With plane tickets as expensive as they are, no wonder they left half the team in Sydney.
18' Tigers challenge a strip call
S
By Simon Smale
The Tigers are pinged for a strip but they are going to challenge it.
Latu Fainu has his hands near the ball but it doesn't look like a strip.
The Bunker says it's inconclusive so the Tigers keep their challenge, but it's still a penalty.
Jarome Luai is fuming.
17' Manly have another one!
S
By Simon Smale
This is getting very, very dangerous for the Tigers.
Luke Brooks moves the ball to the left side this time off the back of a scrum, to Tola Koula, who gets rid of it quickly to Lehi Hopoate, who races through to score.
That is so, so easy.
The kick is good and it's 18-0.
16' Patrick Herbert on report
S
By Simon Smale
Herbert with a dangerous tackle there.
13' Can't stop Haumole Olakau'atu!
S
By Simon Smale
Oh my! Haumole Olakau'atu just runs over Alex Seyfarth like he's one of those inflatable tubes in a bouncy castle.
Goodness me.
The Sea Eagles could be in again through Lehi Hopoate but he's stopped by Heath Mason - a try saver - and then loses the ball.
Tigers survive. Just.
12' Penalty Sea Eagles, May on report
S
By Simon Smale
Terrell May gets a bit enthusiastic off the kick off and lands a shoulder onto the head of the Manly ball-carrier.
May is on report too.
Tigers are unravelling.
10' Saab goes 60 metres!
S
By Simon Smale
Oh boy, Tigers fans may want to creep back under their bedclothes and pretend this isn't happening.
More woeful defence from the Tigers, Brooks fending off one to pass to Garrick, who fended off another to pass the ball to Saab on the edge 60 metres from the tryline.
He's such a long way out that it shouldn't be an issue, but this is the Tigers defence and they capitulate again - Saab tiptoeing down the line and fending off two, out-pacing another to score under the posts.
Horrible for the Tigers.
The lead is 12-0.
8' Forward pass saves Tigers blushes
S
By Simon Smale
The Tigers were on the back foot again there.
The Sea Eagles are just carving through some absolutely horrid defence from the Tigers.
Brooks got the ball and moved to the right edge this time, looking for Reuben Garrick on the outside.
But Haumole Olakau'atu was in the way and stuck an arm out, the ball deflecting off his giant paw forwards denying Manly another try.
4' Manly score the opener!
S
By Simon Smale
Tolutau Koula crosses for the first try of Super Saturday!
Taylan May kicked the ball limply on the last for the Tigers.
Luke Brooks mopped up, skipped past a tackle and passed out to Koula on the left wing.
Koula, from inside his own half, just skipped past five pathetic tackle attempts from the Tigers defence, which parted like the Red Sea, to score under the posts.
Wow, that was horrible defence from the Tigers.
The kick is good and it's 6-0.
1' We're underway in the first game

The Tigers kick off towards the Caxton Street end, and Manly in their predominantly white jersey's bring it back.
