77′ Olakau’atu throws an intercept!<\/p>\n
Disaster for Manly!<\/p>\n
The Warriors have the ball in a perfect attacking position!<\/p>\n
Sat 5 Sep 2026 at 4:52pmSat 5 Sep 2026 at 4:52pm<\/p>\n
77′ Harris-Tavita is short with a field goal attempt<\/p>\n
He was far too far out to make a genuine attempt, but he still had a go and the ball falls short by 10 metres.<\/p>\n
The Sea Eagles bring it back.<\/p>\n
Sat 5 Sep 2026 at 4:51pmSat 5 Sep 2026 at 4:51pm<\/p>\n
76′ The Warriors successfully challenge a knock on call!<\/p>\n
Eddie\u00a0Ieremia-Toeava is ruled to have knocked on after the blocked field goal.<\/p>\n
The Warriors instantly challenge, but the drone shot from high above Mount Smart stadium shows that the ball went backwards off the hands!<\/p>\n
It will be Warriors ball.<\/p>\n
Sat 5 Sep 2026 at 4:49pmSat 5 Sep 2026 at 4:49pm<\/p>\n
74′ The Warriors are over again! But it’s ruled out AGAIN!<\/p>\n
Tanner\u00a0Stowers-Smith picked up the ball from the blocked field goal.<\/p>\n
The man who has never scored a try in the NRL saw his moment and raced towards the line.<\/p>\n
But as he was tackled just short, he couldn’t help but reach out for the double movement.<\/p>\n
Oh the drama!<\/p>\n
It’s Sea Eagles ball – will they have a field goal attempt?<\/p>\n
Sat 5 Sep 2026 at 4:43pmSat 5 Sep 2026 at 4:43pm<\/p>\n
74′ THE WARRIORS SCORE! BUT IT’S RULED OUT!<\/p>\n
A brilliant bomb from Chanel\u00a0Harris-Tavita.<\/p>\n
Jason Saab goes up to claim the ball.<\/p>\n
He knocks it on, and the ball is picked up by Chanel\u00a0Harris-Tavita who races over to score.<\/p>\n
BUT HANG ON!<\/p>\n
Te Maire\u00a0Martin slides to pick the ball and he is touched while he is on the ground. That means he is down tackled.<\/p>\n
It’s no try.<\/p>\n
Oh the drama, the late drama in this game.<\/p>\n
The Warriors will have possession.<\/p>\n
Sat 5 Sep 2026 at 4:42pmSat 5 Sep 2026 at 4:42pm<\/p>\n
72′ Warriors error<\/p>\n
Chanel\u00a0Harris-Tavita puts up a kick.<\/p>\n
It’s not a bad one, to be honest.<\/p>\n
But that’s very clever from Tom Trbojevic, stepping out over the line and catching the ball to make it, by rule, a kick out on the full (THE THIRD OF THE GAME SO FAR, BY THE WAY!).<\/p>\n
Sat 5 Sep 2026 at 4:39pmSat 5 Sep 2026 at 4:39pm<\/p>\n
69th THE WARRIORS HIT BACK!<\/p>\n
Taine\u00a0Tuaupiki has a hat-trick!<\/p>\n
Two right-foot steps from the fullback and the Warriors make the Sea Eagles pay for that mistake just seconds ago!<\/p>\n
Taine\u00a0Tuaupiki showed great pace and skill to get into space, and then he showed great strength to power over despite there being three Sea Eagles swarming around him.<\/p>\n
The kick is good, and we’re locked at 30-30!<\/p>\n
Sat 5 Sep 2026 at 4:37pmSat 5 Sep 2026 at 4:37pm<\/p>\n
68th THE SEA EAGLES HAVE ANOTHER! BUT IT’S RULED OUT!<\/p>\n
Astonishing!<\/p>\n
The Sea Eagles have another one!<\/p>\n
Or do they?<\/p>\n
The Sea Eagles were away through midfield with Ben Trbojevic, the shift from deep to the left this time.<\/p>\n
But Tom Trbojevic pulled back Jacob Laban in that midfield area and it’s a clear penalty.<\/p>\n
The Sea Eagles have blown that one.<\/p>\n

65′ TRY SEA EAGLES! GARRICK SCORES HIS 100TH!![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/lcimg-6a7f3153-a54a-486d-b761-ad728bddb268.jpeg\")

Oh my goodness me!<\/p>\n
The Sea Eagles shifted the ball from inside their 20 – they are the long-range kings!<\/p>\n
Haumole Olakau’atu pops his nose through a gap in the defensive line and offloads to Tom Trbojevic.<\/p>\n
He passes wide to Reuben Garrick on half way, and the centre races off to score his 100th Manly try.<\/p>\n
Sensational stuff.<\/p>\n
The kick is good and it’s 30-24 to the Sea Eagles.<\/p>\n
Sat 5 Sep 2026 at 4:32pmSat 5 Sep 2026 at 4:32pm<\/p>\n
63′ Josh Feledy loses the ball!<\/p>\n
An attempted 40:20 by Te Maire\u00a0Martin doesn’t come off.<\/p>\n
But Manly loses the ball from the restart and the Warriors have a great opportunity here.<\/p>\n
Erin\u00a0Clark charges towards the line and almost gets there too, Sea Eagles hanging off him as he slowly came to\u00a0 a halt having powered through the line.<\/p>\n
But then there’s a knock on as the Warriors spin the ball wide.<\/p>\n
Sat 5 Sep 2026 at 4:26pmSat 5 Sep 2026 at 4:26pm<\/p>\n
58′ Manly cross for a try?!<\/p>\n
But it’s been sent up as a no try!<\/p>\n
Lehi Hopoate put the ball down but I think Tom Trbojevic is going to be pinged for obstruction.<\/p>\n
He has leaped to try and gather a cross field kick, but he’s missed it and gone through and made contact with the Warriors defender.<\/p>\n
Letter of the law it’s the correct call.<\/p>\n
Feel of the game and how far that Warriors player was from getting a hand on the ball to deny the Sea Eagles points? Probably not.<\/p>\n
A big escape for the Warriors.<\/p>\n
Sat 5 Sep 2026 at 4:23pmSat 5 Sep 2026 at 4:23pm<\/p>\n
56′ Penalty Sea Eagles<\/p>\n
Dumb from James\u00a0Fisher-Harris, who pushes down on the head of Clayton Faulalo after making the tackle.<\/p>\n
A soft penalty to give away and give the Sea Eagles a chance to go ahead.<\/p>\n
Sat 5 Sep 2026 at 4:21pmSat 5 Sep 2026 at 4:21pm<\/p>\n
54′ Penalty Warriors<\/p>\n
Reuben Garrick with a sloppy penalty to give away after a solid first set following points.<\/p>\n
Taine Tuaupiki was tackled and held, and then Garrick flopped back on top of him.<\/p>\n
It’s a dumb penalty to give away and the Warriors get a free pass up field.<\/p>\n
Sat 5 Sep 2026 at 4:19pmSat 5 Sep 2026 at 4:19pm<\/p>\n
52′ THE SEA EAGLES SCORE ANOTHER!<\/p>\n
Oh my word!<\/p>\n
That is remarkable!<\/p>\n
The Sea Eagles spring the trap down the left side and Lehi Hopoate takes off!<\/p>\n
He got the ball inside his own 20 and just took off the 80 metres to score, with a little dummy of the eyes and hips to send the covering defence away from him to boot!<\/p>\n
From the kick off, the Sea Eagles almost got bundled into touch when a pack of Warriors powered Haumole Olakau’atu towards the sideline, the giant second row just staying in!<\/p>\n
Now they’ve gone the full length of the field to score.<\/p>\n
Remarkable.<\/p>\n
The kick is GOOD!<\/p>\n
We’re level at 24-24!<\/p>\n
Sat 5 Sep 2026 at 4:16pmSat 5 Sep 2026 at 4:16pm<\/p>\n
49′ Brilliant try from the Sea Eagles!<\/p>\n
Oh that’s very, very good from Tom Trbojevic, take a bow that man.<\/p>\n
Trbojevic bounces out of one challenge on thee 30, rides another and then bursts through into the Warriors’ 20.<\/p>\n
He puts a kick in out wide where there are Sea Eagles queuing up, and the ball bounces into Josh Feledy’s hands.<\/p>\n
Lovely try.<\/p>\n
The kick is good too and, all of a sudden, the Sea Eagles are back within six points, 18-24.<\/p>\n
The Sea Eagles still haven’t been tackled inside the Warriors 20…<\/p>\n
Sat 5 Sep 2026 at 4:12pmSat 5 Sep 2026 at 4:12pm<\/p>\n
46′ Try Warriors!![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/lcimg-9286e6c1-47ea-43f8-81cb-fa56c2386f40.jpeg\")

That’s a wonderful way to start the half for the hosts!<\/p>\n
Te Maire\u00a0Martin puts in a perfect kick out to the corner, Charnze\u00a0Nicoll-Klokstad leaps up and takes the ball away from Lehi Hopoate and spins down to score.<\/p>\n
Perfect stuff from the Warriors.<\/p>\n
A double for Nicoll-Klokstad on his return from suspension.<\/p>\n
Another kick goes wide from Taine Tuaupiki – he’s normally much better than this –\u00a0 and it’s 24-12.<\/p>\n
Sat 5 Sep 2026 at 4:04pmSat 5 Sep 2026 at 4:04pm<\/p>\n
41′ We’re back underway in Auckland<\/p>\n
The sun is setting across the ditch, the sky a vibrant pink as the white-shirted Sea Eagles kick off the second half.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Sat 5 Sep 2026 at 4:52pmSat 5 Sep 2026 at 4:52pm 77′ Olakau’atu throws an intercept!
