Manly Sea Eagles vs Dolphins Tips
The Dolphins make their first trip to the Sydney region since round 5. Neither team have shown signs of brilliance over the past month and despite Manly losing four of their last five games at home they head into this game as favourites.

The Dolphins have covered at the third highest rate of any team this year and I am backing them to even do so this weekend.
- In 6 games as underdogs of 8 or more points, the Dolphins have covered 4 times, winning 3 outright.
- Manly have allowed an average of 21 points to their opponents across their last 4 games at 4 Pines Park.
- Dolphins have split their games away from home this year 3-3 and have covered the line in 4 of those.
- Manly have allowed 9 tries to wingers in their last 4 games.
Head to Head
This is the first meeting between Manly and the Dolphins. Wayne Bennett holds a 5-1 advantage over Anthony Siebold in their rival games as head coaches.
Manly Sea Eagles Form
Manly enjoyed their second bye of the season in round 14 following a string of losses going four out of five since round 9.
Their most recent game in round 13 was a loss to Newcastle 28-18. In a game where Manly were missing their Origin stars their attack was left lacking with no shape or structure in their attacking zone.
Manly Sea Eagles Team News
Tom Trbojevic has been cleared to play following a concussion, Kaeo Weekes falls out of the 22.
Brad Parker has been ruled out with injury forcing a backline reshuffle with Reuben Garrick moving to the centres and Christian Tuipulotu being named on the wing.
Daly Cherry-Evans and Josh Aloiai have both been included following Manly’s Round 14 bye.

Dolphins Form
The Dolphins have won only one of three since their bye in round 11 and last week's 30-8 loss against the Warriors was another uncharacteristic defensive performance pushing them down to 12th in opposition points scored this season.
A shining light in the loss though was the Dolphins ability to kick themselves out of trouble, dominating the kicking metres as well as bombs and grubbers.
Dolphins Team News
Jarrod Wallace and Anthony Milford will both miss this week’s game to suspension. Forward Tom Gilbert is out long term following a shoulder injury.
Hamiso Tabuai-Fidow and Jeremy Marshall-King both return to the Dolphins line up following Origin and injury with Kodi Nikorima slotting straight into Milfords vacant 6 jumper.

Verdict
I am banking on them not turning up in this game and for the Dolphins to slip a few early tries in down the edges to take the wind out of the Manly sails. If the Dolphins win it will be close, if Manly win probably a blow out. Isaako to score either way.
