The 2025 NRL season's Round 17 clash sees the Manly Sea Eagles face off against the Wests Tigers on Friday night at 4 Pines Park in Sydney.

The Sea Eagles return after a much-needed bye week following a 28-8 thrashing at the hands of the bottom-placed Titans in Round 15. Additionally, their form at 4 Pines Park is a concern, having lost three of their last four games, in what is supposed to be their fortress. 

Manly are 10th on the ladder and will hope to start churning out consistent performances, if they have to continue challenging for a finals spot.

The Tigers have suffered five straight losses, with a majority of them on tight margins. Moreover, fullback Jahream Bula has been sidelined for up to four weeks with a hamstring injury - he is replaced by Heath Mason at the same position.

The Sporting News is on hand to bring you all the latest TV, scheduling, and live streaming information ahead of this match.
