Hello and welcome to our coverage of Saturday nightโs NRL clash between Manly and Brisbane. Dom Brock on blog duties tonight.
Itโs been a season of two halves for the Sea Eagles so far in 2026: three losses, a coach sacked, then four wins under interim coach Kieran Foran. Last week was his first loss in charge, and even that was a solid performance โ an 18-16 away defeat to title favourites Penrith.
Tonight theyโre up against a Broncos side that has shown flashes of their best but are also dealing with a lengthy injury toll, with the likes of Payne Haas, Kotoni Staggs, Adam Reynolds and Brendan Piakura among those on the sidelines.
But with Reece Walsh, Ben Hunt and Pat Carrigan still in the side, the Broncos will always be dangerous. Manly great Jake Trbojevic will be playing his 250th NRL game.
Stay tuned for all the action as it happens. Kick-off is at 7.35pm.
