The Manly Sea Eagles made a wonderful comeback to win 20-18 against the Brisbane Broncos in the NRL last night.

The Broncos started the match with an impressive try from Kotoni Staggs, Xavier Coates and Darius Boyd but could not cross over the white line in the second half.

The Sea Eagles first try came from Tevita Funa with 4 minutes left in the first half and two more in the second spell from Daly Cherry-Evans and Moses Suli.

The Broncos led the Sea Eagles 18-4 at half-time.

Sea Eagles Reuben Garrick equalised the points to 18-all in the 64th minute and a controversial call from the referee in the 70th minute of the game, giving away a penalty to the Eagles to seal their victory from the boot of Garrick.

This is the third win of the season for the Sea Eagles while the Broncos third loss as they are still struggling to find the best combination in their star squad.

The Warriors will take on the Cowboys at 8 tonight, the Eels will face the Panthers at 9.55 tonight, the Rabbitohs will play the Titans at 5pm tomorrow, the Knights will take on the Storm at 7.30pm tomorrow while the Wests Tigers will play the Raiders at 9.35pm tomorrow.
