In a spectacular display of skill and finesse, Tom Trbojevic shone brightly as the Sea Eagles triumphed over the Newcastle Knights.

The NRL world was left in awe as Turbo proved beyond doubt that he belongs in the fullback position for Manly.

With a try and three stunning assists under his belt, Trbojevic's performance propelled Manly to a commanding victory, soaring to seventh place on the NRL ladder.

Returning from a hamstring injury, Turbo showcased his vintage form, running an impressive 185 metres from 22 carries.

Coach Anthony Seibold had experimented with Trbojevic at centre in the previous game, but circumstances forced a return to fullback.

And what a return it was, as the star player delivered a masterclass that left fans and experts alike insisting he remains at the heart of the action.

"I've always felt at home as a fullback," Trbojevic declared post-match.

"While I'm open to the team's needs, my heart belongs on the field, leading the charge from the back." As Manly basks in the glory of their victory, the consensus remains clear: Turbo's place is at fullback, where he truly shines.
