The Sea Eagles kept their finals hopes alive with a thumping win over the Dolphins and will be out to keep that momentum going against the Dragons.

Celebrating Daly Cherry-Evans’ 350th game in style, Manly reminded everyone of their attacking prowess in a 10-try romp at 4 Pines Park and now the challenge is to take that form on the road.

If the Sea Eagles can get the job done this weekend they can set their sights on a Round 27 blockbuster at home against the Warriors and a possible last ditch shot at finals footy.

The Dragons are out to restore pride after a demoralising loss to the Rabbitohs in Round 25 and they have a chance to finish the season on a high with strong showings at their two home grounds Jubilee and WIN Stadium.

Team News

Dragons: Plenty of reinforcements for the Red V with Jaydn Su’A (knee), Jack de Belin (concussion) and Hame Sele (concussion) all back on deck. Luciano Leilua reverts to the bench and Ben Murdoch-Masila drops out while Damien Cook goes back to hooker and Jacob Liddle to the bench. Flyer Tyrell Sloan has been recalled on the wing at the expense of Corey Allan.
