That's one of the biggest turnarounds you'll ever see. Manly got a standing ovation at half time, such was the quality of their play, but they were totally absent in the final half hour of this one. Penrith looked dead and buried but through some strong forward play and some moments of brilliance from Moylan and Cartwright, were able to completely turn this game on its head and storm back into the top eight. We'll be back tomorrow with a double header for the public holiday Monday. See you then!
The ball goes to ground and that's the game!
Cleary is tackled on the last for a handover, then Manly get a penalty. It will be too little, too late but they'll push for a consolation try here.
Manly go short again and Moylan leaps highest to haul it in! What a second half he's had!
Moylan seals the game!
No mistake from 20 out, right in front. That will do us, you'd think.
Back to topThey go for the short restart but it won't make the distance! Penrith can kill the game off here..
Wallace pushes it wide so it's only a one-score game. 30-24 with three minutes to go!
DWZ! Penrith are in again!
Cartwright throws a flick pass to Blake after drawing in two defenders and it's a simple draw and pass after the centre streaks away. The ball to his winger may have been forward but they don't call it and Penrith have completely turned this around in the last 20 minutes or so!
Cleary kicks long and then chases through brilliantly to tackle Stewart one-on-one just a metre out from the Manly line. The hosts look utterly shell-shocked here.
Wow gem of a pass from Moylan there.

Wallace ties the game! Absolute scenes at Brookvale!
Moylan throws a great cut-out pass to Peachey to put him into space, the centre runs downfield until he gets to Stewart, pops it back on the inside to Wallace in support and he'll have a pretty easy kick to give Penrith the lead!
Wallace takes over the kicking and nails this one. 24-20 with ten to go!
Latu crashes over!
Great ball from Cleary to Peachey and the centre is tackled a metre out, that stretches the defence and Moylan comes in at dummy half on the last and pops a short pass to the big prop who goes through the line. Grandstand finish coming up!
Mansour makes a half break and then a couple of tackles later, he backs it up by providing the kick that forces a dropout! If Penrith grab a try here, we've got a huge finish coming up!
Back to topMoylan far from impressive, door opened for Teddy? #NRLManlyPanthers

This time the kick is too big and Penrith escape. Ten is the margin, 18 minutes to go.
Another grubber, and again Moylan has to take it dead. Six more!
Manly roll up the other end and Koroisau's grubber on the last forces a repeat set.
Penrith were looking dangerous again but Moylan drops it when he looked to be through a gap!
