Sea Eagles v Eels preview

Sea Eagles v Eels
Brookvale Oval
Monday, 7pm
As hard as we try to build up the clash between Manly and Parramatta, we can’t help but think we’re going to be let down. After all, stats don’t lie – and the figures show the Sea Eagles have been solid in 2013 and the Eels, well, they’ve just been plain awful.
Manly currently sit in fifth place on the Telstra Premiership NRL ladder but are desperate for a win and two competition points following three consecutive defeats by six points or less. Despite the tight losses to the Roosters, Bulldogs and Warriors, the Sea Eagles – who welcomed back superstar fullback Brett Stewart last Monday night – are just a point out of the top four after a more-than-respectable seven-and-six start (plus a draw) to the season.
The last-placed Eels, meanwhile, are proving to be the easy-beats of 2013 – the competition’s battlers have won just three matches and are currently enduring a five-match losing streak. But, as Eels fans tell you, where there’s life there’s hope – and die-hard supporters cling to memories of 2009’s fairytale finish. But if the Eels are to launch a late-season surge for the semis, it needs to start now.
Manly welcome back five-eighth Kieran Foran after he was struck by a severe case of food poisoning just hours before kick-off last week. (We loved Geoff Toovey’s explanation of it in last week’s press conference, too.) The Kiwi’s return pushes utility Tom Symonds to the bench.
For the Eels, Jarryd Hayne has been named to return for the Monday night clash at Brookvale Oval, though his fitness will be closely monitored late in the week. The Origin star’s inclusion pushes Jake Mullaney, who started in the No.1 against South Sydney in the Eels’ most recent match in Round 15, onto a five-man bench.
Watch Out Sea Eagles: Jarryd’s back – and the Hayne Plane needs to reach great heights one last time before Origin to guarantee the speedster a place in the Blues’ backline for Game Three on Wednesday week. If he soars against the Sea Eagles and helps raise the Eels’ standard of play, then chances are he’ll be charging into the NSW No.1 jumper, too.
Watch Out Eels: Lies, damn lies and statistics – Parramatta will be hoping all the figures are wrong entering this clash… as they all point to a significant Sea Eagles victory! It’s tough reading for Parra fans: they’ve lost seven of their past nine Monday night fixtures as well as seven of their past nine Brookvale Oval clashes; they’re currently averaging their fewest points on the road in 19 years; they’ve not yet won away from home this season. Ouch!
Plays To Watch: Sea Eagles captain Jamie Lyon getting in touch with the referees early – he’s not happy about his team’s recent treatment, particularly against the Roosters last week, and he’ll likely let this week’s refs know; Eels halfback Chris Sandow chip-kicking for himself or Jarryd Hayne when you least expect it; Manly centre Steve Matai sprinting out of the line and smothering his opponents in bell-ringing bear hugs; Rampaging Parramatta forward Fuifui Moimoi at full speed – enough said.
Key Match-Up: The battle of the fullbacks should prove great viewing, but the players inside the No.1s will have more influence here. Daly Cherry-Evans and Chris Sandow, Queensland halves in vastly different form and circumstances, push their team-mates around like chess pieces – but whose co-workers will listen to the instructions and follow the demands best? Both talented No.7s have game-breaking qualities but in Sandow’s case the match-winning potential hasn’t been on show on a consistent basis. There’s no doubting the talent, though – so far in 2013 he’s contributed a respectable eight try assists, three line-break assists and a league-leading four 40/20s. Cherry-Evans (five try assists and two 40/20s) is also a competitor, and both performers could drive their team to a win.
Where It Will Be Won: It’s not rocket science, but defence has proven a significant influencing factor in both teams’ seasons so far in 2013 – and it will in this match, too. The Sea Eagles concede just 14 points per game (the second-stingiest defence in the competition) while the Eels concede 28.2 (and by far the worst record in the comp). For Parramatta to even think of competing, their numerous holes need plugging – fast.
The History: Played 128; Sea Eagles 79, Eels 45, drawn 4.
Match Officials: Referees – Gavin Badger & Phil Haines; Video Referees – Luke Phillips & Henry Perenara; Sideline Officials – Russell Turner & Brett Suttor.

The Way We See It: Only the most ardent Eels fan would believe Parramatta are in with a chance this Monday night, but perhaps that’s exactly the way coach Ricky Stuart wants it. Who knows what could happen if the Hayne Plane takes off and Chris Sandow starts to weave some magic! Still, as hard as we try we can’t see them posing a problem for Manly – with players like Watmough, Lyon, Matai and the Stewart brothers, they’ll prove far too good. Sea Eagles by 12 points.

Manly crush Eels 50-10
Adrian Warren AAP Mon, Jul 08, 2013
Manly fullback Brett Stewart enjoyed a strong return to Brookvale Oval as the Sea Eagles' back three starred in their 50-10 NRL rout of Parramatta on Monday night.
The Sea Eagles climbed above Cronulla into fourth spot by scoring nine tries to two, with Manly winger Jorge Taufua crossing three times.
A fairly routine game exploded into action with seven minutes to go when Eels prop Mitchell Allgood threw a flurry of punches at Sea Eagles centre Steve Matai and was sin-binned and placed on report.
Just seconds earlier, Allgood threw a swinging arm as he went in to make a tackle on Jamie Buhrer.
Cynics might suggest Allgood showed more fight than his team, who were effectively out of the game by the 30-minute mark.
Searching for a first win in four games, the Sea Eagles were 20-0 up by that point and Parramatta were heading for a sixth straight loss.
Stewart, playing his first game at Brookvale Oval since round seven, scored one try and was heavily involved in at least four more, including two in the last five minutes to Jamie Lyon and Kieran Foran.
He ran for almost 150 metres while wingers Taufua and David Williams both racked up more than 200 metres.
With their forwards dominant and playmakers Foran and Daly Cherry-Evans always probing, Manly had too many weapons for the tackle-shy Eels.
Manly could have won by an even bigger margin but bombed two tries with knock-ons and had two more rubbed out by the video referee.
Williams crossed in the third minute and Taufua got his first try in the ninth.
Taufua powered over for his second try off a Stewart pass and the fullback then crossed for one of his own.
Parramatta showed some fight in the final five minutes of the first half despite losing centre Jacob Loko to a patella injury.
Peni Terepo scored a try and Pat O'Hanlon was held up.
Manly lost lock Glenn Stewart after he was inadvertently poked in the eye by a teammate.
Even that setback had a silver lining for the Sea Eagles.
Stewart's replacement Tom Symonds scored a try within a minute of taking the field, though the latter appeared to suffer a thumb injury.
Parramatta winger Brayden Wiliame capitalised on a pass from halfback Chris Sandow for the Eels' second try.
It was one-way traffic after that with a try to Jamie Buhrer triggering a final-quarter flurry by the home team.
Parramatta coach Ricky Stuart said he was disappointed with the Allgood incident, but acknowledged punching wasn't allowed in the game.
"It escalated when Steve (Matai) didn't need to be there and Mitch didn't need to do what he did," Stuart said.
"I've already spoken to him and he thought he was going to get hit and he reacted.
"It was disappointing to see it happen, I don't want to condone that behaviour."
Manly coach Geoff Toovey was reluctant to comment on the incident.
"It was a bit of a fight, a bit of a dust-up, I'm sure they (the NRL) will sort it out," Toovey said.
He said Symonds suffered a broken thumb, prop George Rose twisted an ankle and Glenn Stewart got a poke in the eye.
He described Brett Stewart's involvement as excellent but said his side could improve.
Stuart said his players really tried despite the scoreline but made fundamental defensive errors.
"You can't have an error of judgment and you can't have a missed tackle and we had too many of both," Stuart said.
