A full house is expected at 4 Pines Park on Friday night when the Sea Eagles face off against the Warriors in their last home game of the season.
While the chances of making the top eight are slim, they are still mathematically possible.
This match marks the last time Daly Cherry-Evans will don a Manly jersey at Brookvale, while it will be Joey Walsh's debut in a Manly jersey at Brookvale.
The Warriors are still vying for a spot in the top four.
To achieve a minor miracle, the Sea Eagles need a significant victory over the Warriors, requiring an 82-point turnaround in points differential with the Roosters, who would also need to face a heavy loss against Souths in the second game that night.
Moreover, Manly would need the Dolphins to lose to the Raiders on Sunday. It's as straightforward as that.
Daly Cherry-Evans' final game at Brookvale is anticipated to draw considerable attention, with thousands of members and fans eager to witness his farewell.
