Match Centre

FULL TIME - I know for a fact some Souths fans are saying thank f*** that's over picking up a 14-0 win

PENALTY SOUTHS: Manly kick too long at 14-0 with 30 seconds to go

SOUTHS SCORE - 55 minutes between efforts as Cook kicks through the open gap in the defence under the posts and Keaon Koloamatangi gets to it first

PENALTY SOUTHS: Jai Arrow hit high and the penalty is blown

Manly lose the ball...

Manly get the ball back with Gagai sliding into touch

Luke Brooks kicks the ball in an up and under bomb with no pressure on Jye Gray again

Souths just get a set restart and kick ahead which sums up the game

Luke Brooks bombs again and it's average but it's contested at least as Manly throw it around but don't get anything but a 20m restart to Souths

"12 minutes to go, plenty of time for Manly to win it" They haven't looked like scoring for 68 minutes so hard to see them on a scoring rampage now

Manly try to go to their left and turn the ball over

SOMETHINGS HAPPENING!!!! Manly go through with Tommy Talau "scoring" BUT it's an obstruction so really nothing happened

PENALTY MANLY: Jack Wighton penalised and ON REPORT

Again nothing doing for Souths as Cody Walker gets the ball and just gets tackled

Jacob Gagai makes something happen going down the right after being sent down the sideline before pulled down short. Souths go left on last and the ball goes pinging everywhere and it's a Manly knock on

Somebody actually almost does something... Souths kick for AJ is regathered but they turn the ball over meekly

DEBUTANT ALERT: Liam Le Blanc who is a perennial 19th man gets on for his debut

PENALTY SOUTHS: Souths force a repeat set but earn a penalty as an offside player had an impact

Not a lot happening as both teams trying to move the ball but not successfully

PENALTY SOUTHS: Manly penalised for passing off the ground

Cody Walker's kick looks too hard off the boot and it does sit up but it does just go dead anyway

PENALTY SOUTHS: Crusher tackle the ruling from Chris Butler against Jake Simpkin

PENALTY SOUTHS: Crusher tackle the ruling from Chris Butler against Jake Simpkin

Keaon Koloamatangi loses the ball, probably helped out but with no challenges no arguments

Manly split the Souths defence with Bullemor and Lawton combining before that last pass put down

SECOND HALF IS GO! Manly using the ball first

HALF TIME in the wet and Souths lead 8-0

NO TRY - AJ knew he had to get to the line early to slide over but he loses it just short and the Sea Eagles survive

PENALTY SOUTHS: Luke Brooks careless with the knees in the wet conditions

CAPTAINS CHALLENGE: Souths challenging a strip call from Chris Butler and Wyatt Raymond in the bunker confirms it and it's pretty clear

Manly lose another attacking chance by spilling at the ball

"FORWARD" Jake Simpkin was never getting away with that one though he might've seen the Jets beating the Panthers in NSW Cup to think you can get away from it

A strange play from Souths to pick up the loose ball

Ben Trbojevic loses the ball in good attacking position

Luke Brooks cross-field kick spilt by Souths and the Sea Eagles get a big opportunity for first points

HUGE obstruction there from Cook but Chris Butler rules no advantage with him caught short of the line

That was the biggest waste of time I've seen... Players form the scrum come together nobody throws anything then we repack the scrum before we come out again before a harsh word from Chris Butler and we pack again

Tolutau Koula offloads unnecessarily to Lehi Hopoate who was tackled close to before he got it but ruled simultaneous

Souths making hard work off their line as they get up to the 30

SET RESTART: Ruck infringement ruled against the Rabbitohs for slowness in the ruck

Did someone's controller get stuck? Jason Saab runs back for the kick and then kept going backwards before slipping in the ingoal and getting trapped

PENALTY SOUTHS: A third penalty against the Sea Eagles for offfside

PENALTY SOUTHS: Dragons bound Damien Cook gets his current Red and Green side a penalty catching markers out offside

PENALTY SOUTHS: Jye Gray fumbles the ball in the air BUT the Manly kick chasers are offside

CAPTAINS CHALLENGE: The Sea Eagles lose their challenge 2:09 seconds into the game after Lehi Hopoate knocks on in the air which although not the ruling from Chris Butler, it was a changeover so the rules state incorrect challenge

GAME ON! The great man Chris Butler has control of this one in the rain at Accor Stadium
