Sydney Roosters vs Manly Sea Eagles Preview

Two teams coming off disappointing losses will look to turn around their Round 1 results when the Sydney Roosters play host to the Manly Sea Eagles at the SCG.

With confirmation that Nathan Cleary would be sidelined for the season opener, the Sea Eagles moved into favouritism against the Panthers.

However, they were outclassed from the opening whistle, with their only highlight a remarkable team try just before the half capped off by Ethan Bullemor in his Sea Eagles debut.

Similarly, the Roosters were shell-shocked by the Knights, who dominated the contest from start to finish. As a result, these proud clubs find themselves dwelling in the bottom two.

The Roosters have named Victor Radley and Billy Smith despite both suffering head knocks in Round 1.

For the Sea Eagles, Dylan Walker has been added to the bench at the expense of Tolutau Koula.
