The Manly Sea Eagles are in good form and will be keen to end the finals hopes of a Newcastle Knights side that ambushed the reigning premiers just several weeks ago. Join us for NRL live scores and blog from 3.00pm AEST.
Manly have won their past three matches and are starting to build impressive momentum heading into the finals.
The Sea Eagles brought the red-hot Rabbitohs crashing back to earth last week, defeating South Sydney 23-6 in a clinical performance from Geoff Toovey’s men.
Despite conceding an early try, Manly kept South Sydney scoreless for over 70 minutes, thus continuing a solid defensive run that has seen the Sea Eagles concede just 12 points in 160 minutes of football.
Such attitude in defence does not bode well for the Knights chances of victory this afternoon.
Newcastle was impressive in their 26-4 demolition of Cronulla on Monday night, but now travel to Brookvale Oval where they have lost 10 of their past 12 matches against Manly.
The Sea Eagles will also been keen to avenge their heavy 32-6 loss to the Knights just five weeks ago – a win that kick-started a winning run which has seen Newcastle win six of its past eight matches.
Prediction
Manly are looking more formidable with each passing match and at home will be a tough nut to crack for Newcastle.
The Sea Eagles outmuscled the Rabbitohs last week and may just have too much firepower upfront for the Knights to handle.
Matt Ballin, Anthony Watmough, Brent Kite, Tony Williams and Jason King were all very strong against South Sydney and look set to dominate again at home.
The Knights though do have confidence on their side, with key players Danny Buderus, Darius Boyd and Jarred Mullen starting to play some good football.
If Newcastle’s spine can once again fire this afternoon, Newcastle is certainly a chance of causing the upset and keeping their season alive.
With the Knights in desperate need of a win, the Sea Eagles will have to roll up their sleeves today and play with the intensity that has served them so well over the past few weeks.
If Manly are close to their best, it should be enough to withstand a spirited Newcastle performance
Sea Eagles by 8.

In a highscoring game, Manly have held off Newcastle to win by 42-20. Manly led 38-4 at halftime but several injuries to key players in the second half allowed Newcastle to score three second half tries and bridge the gap to 18 points. Newcastle had several chances to really make Manly nervous but the Sea Eagles held on when it counted. Manly then finished the game strongly with a try to Taufua in the corner but the Sea Eagles did stumble their way across the finishline after a terrific first half from the reigning premiers. Newcastle tried hard in the second half but it appears that season 2012 is all but over for the Knights. Manly though have taken a giant step toward securing a top four birth.

The Stewart brothers, T Williams and Foran are wrecking havoc as is every other Manly player. Newcastle simply haven’t had any answers to Manly’s intensity. Will Newcastle save face in the second half or will Manly go on to record a huge win?

Manly and Newcastle clash in the last afternoon game at Brookvale Oval for season 2012. Good afternoon and welcome to this live NRL blog covering the match between the Sea Eagles and Knights. The Knights simply need to keep winning if they are to keep their finals destiny in their own hands. A win today will put Newcastle inside the eight. Manly however are desperate to cement their place inside the top four with the Cowboys eager to pounce if the Sea Eagles slip up at home. With plenty on the line, this should be a tough and exciting contest so have your say on the match as it happens.
