Manly have advanced to the second week of the NRL finals and ended Canterbury’s Cinderella season with a come-from-behind 24-22 win in their elimination final at Accor Stadium. The Bulldogs controlled long stretches of Sunday’s match but a 45-metre runaway try from left centre Tolu Koula helped put Manly on top in the final 10 minutes. Bulldogs five-eighth Matt Burton had two chances to level the scores in the last two minutes but his attempts at two-point field goals pulled up short.
Trbojevic was again caught out of position ahead of the Bulldogs’ third, losing the footrace to the ball as Crichton touched Burton’s kick down. But when Lehi Hopoate outleapt Connor Tracey to send Ethan Bullemor over in the shadows of half-time, the Sea Eagles were well in the game. Manly five-eighth Luke Brooks was excellent in breaking his 229-game finals drought, darting upfield to put the Sea Eagles in position for Tommy Talau to score their opener in the first half.
