Newcastle Knights go in search of their third straight win over Manly Sea Eagles when the two teams clash in NRL Round 5 action on Saturday.
Newcastle have lost three of their first four games in 2019 but have been close to winning every one of them - can they produce a more clinical performance to take out a confident Manly side on Saturday?
Touted by many to make the finals this season, it’s been a tough start to the season for the Knights, but the good news for Nathan Brown is that his team have been in every game, and if not for a bit of back luck, they could be in a much better position after four rounds.
Indeed, all three of Newcastle’s defeats have been by a combined margin of 10 points, but whiled defence isn’t an issue for the team, attack clearly is, with the Knights failing to score more than 14 points in any game this season.
For a team blessed with the talent of Kalyn Ponga and Mitchell Pearce in their spine, that simply isn’t good enough. Ponga looked better at fullback last week, but the Knights need Pearce to step up if they are going to overcome Manly on Saturday.
The Sea Eagles endured a rough start to the season, but they are on the right track now, winning their last two games against the Warriors (a big victory where they scored 46 points) and last week against a previously-unbeaten Rabbitohs outfit, prevailing 13-12 at home.
However, Manly also suffered a big blow in that win, with star fullback Tom Trbojevic set to miss the next two months after re-injuring his hamstring.
The Sea Eagles struggled significantly with Trbojevic at the start of the season and could find the going tough without him again. But, in saying that, his brother Jake and Daly Cherry-Evans have stepped up in recent weeks and are leading from the front.
Newcastle have won the last two games between the sides, but both were close, and I can see another tight contest eventuating again on Saturday. The Knights aren’t doing much wrong, but they need a bit more spice in attack. Manly are playing tough football under Des Hasler, but the loss of Trbojevic is huge. It could be time for Newcastle to edge a confidence-boosting win to kick-start their season.
