Brisbane Broncos vs Manly Sea Eagles: preview

By The Roar / Editor

The second placed Manly Sea Eagles travel to Suncorp Stadium on Sunday afternoon to do battle with the Brisbane Broncos.

Despite a gap of nine rungs separating these two sides on the NRL ladder, this match looks set to provide a strong contest.

The Sea Eagles will receive a big boost following the return of Jamie Lyon and Kieran Foran, however key playmaker, Daly Cherry-Evans, is in doubt for the match after picking up a knee injury during Game 1 of State of Origin.

Manly will also be hoping the Blues back-rower Anthony Watmough is able to play through the pain he incurred in the brutal Origin 1 clash.

The Origin casualties will impact the Broncos also, with centre Justin Hodges ruled out late in the week.

Ben Hunt has been in blistering form for the Broncos of late and could prove to be the spark that gets the home side the much needed upset win.
