The Wests Tigers and the Manly-Waringah Sea Eagles face off in the 2025 National Rugby League (NRL)'s Indigenous Round 24 at Allianz Stadium in Sydney.

The Wests Tigers have had a mixed beginning to the season, picking up five wins from their opening 10 games. Things quickly turned sour as they suffered five consecutive defeats, though they managed to snap that losing streak with a much-needed victory over the Roosters. They head into their clash with the Sea Eagles placed 12th on the NRL ladder after another month of inconsistency seeing them win twice and lose twice.

The Sea Eagles have also had a very inconsistent season thus far as they started the campaign with five wins and as many losses in 10 games. Since then, the run of inconsistency has continued as they have since managed four victories and five defeats over the course of the last seven rounds. With three losess in the last three games, the Sea Eagles have dropped to tenth on the NRL ladder.
