The Manly Sea Eagles take on the Cronulla Sharks at 4 Pines Park in a bid to host an elimination final in week one of the finals.

A win for Manly will see them jump the Bulldogs into 6th on the ladder, while a loss would see the Bulldogs host them at Accor Stadium next week.

The Sharks’ hopes of hosting a final in week one are gone after wins by the Roosters and Panthers, but they will be looking to head into a clash with the Storm in week one in form.

For Manly Tolu Koula comes in for injured fullback Tom Trbojevic, with Clayton Faulalo to replace Jason Saab on the wing.

Ben Trbojevic is also set to make his return to the field after acting as 18th man last week.

The Sharks are set to field a full strength backline for the first time since Round 17, with Ronaldo Mulitalo and Jesse Ramien returning to the side.

Siosifa Talakai is also a chance to return from a calf injury after being named in the reserves.

The battle between Origin foes Daly Cherry-Evans and Nicho Hynes will go a long way towards deciding the match.

The Sea Eagles play the Sharks at 4pm today.
