Penrith have dominated Manly in the past, like they have with most teams to be fair, however the Sea Eagles have never had a look in really. Manly are coming off two poor performances, especially in their most recent loss to the Dragons where they looked flat in attack with no creativity behind their structure.
Penrith on the the flip side, looked almost just as potent without Cleary in their win against the Roosters and with their defence holding strong and the right side of their attack looking simply unstoppable as Dylan Edwards became the orchestrator often lifting in his halfback’s absence.
The line is at just 2.5 in the Panthers favour which is just ridiculous against our models which are predicting an 8-point win to the Panthers even with the adjustment of Cleary missing.
The lack of attack in the Manly side going up against Penrith who average just 13 points against per game is when the difference will be. Blend that with Manly’s defence not looking all that good and I don’t like the chances of them stopping Izack Tago and Sunia Turuva either.
I have Penrith winning this one comfortably from the start getting the halftime-fulltime double and you can just take your pick who scores on the right for the Panthers, but it looks to be Izack Tago turn this week.
- Penrith have not lost to Manly in 8 matches.
- Penrith have beaten Manly by 4 points or more in 7 of their past 8 wins.
- Penrith took the HT/FT double in 62.5% of their matches in 2023.
- The right-hand side of the Penrith attack has scored 73% of their tries.

Manly started the season with high hopes, giving their fans something to dream about, but two quick-fire losses to Parramatta 28-24 and St George 20-12 put those dreams back on the shelf for a little while.
I was the Luke Brooks train as much as any, but the fact of the matter is that a similar stat is coming up again in relation to the halfback and to be fair also Manly.
The Sea Eagles had 39 tackles inside the Dragons redzone last game and they failed to convert more than twice, which was a similar story for Manly and also Brooks’ Tigers last season.

No Cleary, No Worries is the motto going around at Penrith right now after their strong performance against the Roosters 22-16.
