That's 80; For the second match in a row we're off to golden point. Manly 12 Souths 12

Some enterprising play on the last for the Rabbitohs and they come up with some play and Manly come up with it BUT Grant Atkins penalises Manly for being offside
Nobody can hold the ball at the moment - The Sea Eagles cough up possession and now Souths go on the attack
DCE converts from right in front.
How things can swing - The Sea Eagles couldn't hold the ball down their own end and Souths couldn't take advantage. Down the other end a great tackle from Jake Trbojevic forces the ball from Campbell Graham and the ball spills free with Fainu picking it up and scoring
The right edge defence of the Sea Eagles stands tall with some great work from Reuben Garrick
ANOTHER error from the Sea Eagles as Sipley coughs up the ball; Manly have completed just 1/4 in the second half
Some confusion at the back for the Sea Eagles as the Rabbitohs got the ball back then found touch on the second kick

Brendan Elliott moved to fullback with Tom Trbojevic off the field
UH OH - Tom Trbojevic has one touch of the ball in the second half and his hammy has gone
The second half is GO - The Bunnies using the ball first
Underway in the second forty. Souths have it first.
And that's HALFTIME. Souths lead by four.
Souths have one last chance after Manly lose a Cook grubber near their own line.
Similar angle, same result. Reynolds can't convert.
Graham goes over out wide after Manly defenders drop off! Bunnies in front!
Time off with Corey Waddell sent for a HIA.
Sipley strips it after a teammate falls off the tackle and the ball goes forward, so the Bunnies get a scrum-feed.
Reynolds swings a penalty goal attempt wide and it's a 20m drop-out from Manly.
Gagan goes in out wide for South Sydney after the Rabbitohs steam downfield after picking up a loose ball... but there was a forward pass in the lead-up.... BUT Manly were offside! So South Sydney have a penalty 10m out, near the sideline.
Manly pick up a handy penalty toward the end of a set and will now attack a full set on the Souths' line.

Souths' frantic last-tackle passing ends in a kick which forces an error from Manly. A full set from a scrum 10m out for the Bunnies now.
A few errors creeping into Manly's game here and it's letting Souths have a sniff. They venture into Manly's 20m for what seems like the first time in a long time.

Game on. Manly first use.
