Luke Brooks and Joey Walsh combined to lead the Manly Sea Eagles to a 32-4 thrashing of the Brisbane Broncos at a sold-out 4 Pines Park last night.
Brooks had one of his best games in a Manly jumper, while Walsh crossed over in just the third minute to set the tone for an impressive performance.
The win was soured by a serious leg injury to experienced forward Siosiua Taukeiaho.
The veteran fell awkwardly while scoring a try and was taken from the field with a suspected leg fracture.
Earlier, the Knights produced a dominant performance, keeping the Dragons winless with a 44-10 victory, including a five-try haul from Greg Marzhew.
South Sydney then produced a suffocating defensive display to secure an emphatic 36-12 win over the Sharks at Accor Stadium.
Alex Johnston scored a hat-trick, while rookie Latrell Siegwalt enjoyed a debut to remember with 12 points from the kicking tee and several impressive moments in general play.
Today, the Storm will take on the Wests Tigers at 4pm, while the Raiders will meet the Panthers at 6:05pm.
