The Sea Eagles lead the Titans 18-8 after 45 minutes at 4 Pines Park.
In former Sea Eagles coach Des Hasler’s first game at Manly, the Titans raced to an early 8-0 lead, once again showing plenty of enterprising play with ball in hand.
The match reached a bit of a stalemate midway through the first half, until the Sea Eagles sparked the match with two quick tries of their own.
Manly extended the lead to 10 early in the second half when Jason Saab crossed after a beautifully cut ball from Tom Trbojevic.
