It is the final round of season 2013 with the Manly-Warringah Sea Eagles and Penrith Panthers doing battle at Brookvale Oval in Sunday afternoon football. Join us for live scores and updates from 2.00pm AEST.

The Eagles are headed into finals football and take on a Panthers side out of contention and playing for pride in what should be an entertaining affair with little implications as Manly will finish in the top four regardless.

Manly have been in awesome form and are coming off a dominant display against the Melbourne Storm last Saturday night.

Their big guns are firing and will be spearheaded by the dynamic halves combination of Daly Cherry-Evans and Kieran Foran.

Penrith have been gallant this year and have played well above expectations considering an injury toll that would have crippled plenty of other sides.

Prediction

Much depends on what mindset the Panthers are in knowing their season is over. Coach Ivan Cleary will be hoping his side has one last great performance for 2013. But they are coming up against a Manly side oozing confidence.

A packed house on a Sunday afternoon at Brookvale is always a tall order so expect a fired up Eagles side desperate to keep their roll going with playoffs next weekend.

The Panthers will be competitive but look for the Eagles to run away with a high scoring affair.
