It was a strong start for Manly, but South Sydney quickly took control of the game to get their first win of 2017.

The Sea Eagles scored three tries in 12 minutes through Akuila Uate, Brian Kelly and Tom Trbojevic.

However, Dylan Walker was unable to convert a single one, and Manly ended up leading by 12.

Then, everything changed, and South Sydney became injected with energy almost out of nowhere.

Ryan Jennings, Cody Walker and John Sutton made it three tries per side, but Adam Reynolds made no mistake converting, and the Rabbitohs were up by six.

Manly made it an even ball game right after halftime, but the last 30 minutes was all about South Sydney.

A penalty put the Souths ahead by two, and that would only further open the floodgates as Alex Johnston and Robbie Farah also found themselves on the scoresheet shortly after.

Reynolds had a perfect kicking game, converting six from six.
