In the Round 15 preview for the matchup between the Titans and Sea Eagles, both teams are looking to rebound from disappointing performances.
The Sea Eagles aim to overcome their recent heartbreak, having squandered a 16-0 halftime lead to lose 26-22 against the Knights.
Meanwhile, the Titans suffered a heavy 44-14 defeat at the hands of the Broncos, struggling throughout the match.
Injury issues continue to plague both teams; the Titans will be notably missing key players, including captain Tino Fa'asuamaleaui and prop Moeaki Fotuaika, who are both out on Origin duty.
In contrast, the Sea Eagles have captain Daly Cherry-Evans available, despite his exclusion from the Queensland squad.
As a proud competitor, fans can expect Cherry-Evans to deliver a strong performance following last week's loss.
Historically, Manly has fared well against Queensland teams this season, having achieved victories over both the Cowboys and the Broncos, and they should not underestimate a Titans side eager for a turnaround.
The Titans are led by former Sea Eagles coach Des Hasler, with veteran playmaker Kieran Foran contributing to the team's motivation as they aim to create an upset against the Sea Eagles.
