Tough game to pick. Manly have played well but albeit has been a golden point win against NZ, and wins against the dragons, knights and bunnies. Parra at home are usually a different force. Will opt for the Eels by 4

 

[ed-grimley]

The Eels are in for a hammering.

 

[Vic Mackey]

The eels keep putting in which is good for the fans. Can't see them having enough points to get within 14 of the manly trbojevics though.

 

[Rhino_NQ]

manly by 8, getting a roll on. Eels have been trying but are running out of cattle

 

[Whino]

Manly to keep on winning.

 

[t-ba]

Brad Arthur hasn't lost against Manly and I'm pretty sure this awful run will continue.

 

[effnic]

Daddy is back. Everything will be ok.

 

[Rhyno]

Eels by 4

 

[Pennies]

Manly to belt the Eels.

 

[matrightyeh]

manly easy

 

[GongPanther]

Parra for the weeks only upset by 26-14.

 

[Rhino_NQ]

Parra for the weeks only upset by 26-14.

always that token 1 and it's either going to be this one or the raiders

 

[Nice Beaver]

Us by 10 or so.

Just have more to play for and on a roll.

 

[TheFrog]

Manly will win here, but then they have three games against the top 5 and that will sort them out. Still, they've done well to be still in the running after the start they had.

 

[Buzzard Breath]

Manly by 10.

The Manly Sea Eagles are streaking into finals contention and the Parramatta Eels will try to retain pride in their jersey when these teams clash on Friday night.

In an added boost for Manly, who have not won at Pirtek Stadium since 2013, it appears Jamie Lyon (Calf), Nate Myles (Knee) and Matt Parcell (Hamstring) will all be returning from injury.

For the Eels they too have positive news on the injury front as Michael Jennings(Hamstring) returns, captain Beau Scott is back and Manu Ma'u returns from a one game suspension.

There's been more to upset Parramatta fans than delight them in the past few weeks.

Parra's finals dreams perished three rounds back when they blew a 12 point half time lead. Maybe it was the other way around....will Parra end Manly's finals dreams... I think not. That will happen next week against the Dogs or the following week against the Storm.
