In Round 13, the Manly Warringah Sea Eagles secured a resounding 34-6 victory over the Brisbane Broncos at 4 Pines Park.
The match began with excitement as Manly fullback Lehi Hopoate initiated a break, nearly leading to a try, but a Bunker intervention denied Clayton Faulalo's attempt shortly after.
Faulalo found success later by capitalizing on a fumbled grubber kick from Daly Cherry-Evans, scoring the first points of the match.
The Broncos responded quickly, with Ezra Mam grounding a short kick from Gehamat Shibasaki to bring the score to 6-4.
However, Mam unintentionally assisted Manly's next scoring opportunity when he knocked the ball on while exiting his own half.
Seizing this chance, Hopoate delivered a perfect pass that allowed Faulalo to score his second try, further extending Manly's lead.
Overall, the match saw the Sea Eagles dominate the Broncos, returning to winning form with an impressive display.
