The rivalry between the Manly Sea Eagles and Parramatta Eels reignites on Friday night at CommBank Stadium, as reported by nrl.com.au.
Both teams are coming off different circumstances: the Sea Eagles aim to continue their momentum after winning two of their last three games, while the Eels seek vengeance for their Round 4 loss at 4 Pines Park.
The Eels are looking to build on their recent victory against the Knights, but they will have to do so without key players Mitch Moses and Zac Lomax, who are with the NSW Blues for the Origin One match.
Similarly, the Sea Eagles are also stretched thin, missing Daly Cherry-Evans and Haumole Olakau'atu, who are on Origin duty, while Jake Trbojevic is out due to concussion, and Ben Trbojevic is dealing with an illness.
