Sea Eagles vs Bulldogs Live Streaming Rugby Game

Sea Eagles v Bulldogs
Brookvale Oval
Monday 7pm

Boy, what a difference a month can make! After Round 11, having fallen in controversial last-minute fashion to the Titans, the Sea Eagles were five points adrift of the top eight in 13th position. But three successive wins and two byes have rocketed them to 18 points, good enough for seventh on the NRL ladder when points differential is taken into account.

They share that rung with the Cowboys, Panthers and Broncos and get the chance to push hard for a top-four spot against the Bulldogs at home.

They are at full-strength (although still minus Brett Stewart) and have named Heath L’Estrange, Jason King, George Rose and Tony Williams on the bench, with Jared Waerea-Hargreaves and Adam Cuthbertson in jerseys 20 and 21.

It’s the last chance for winger David Williams and prop Brent Kite to show they are deserving of retaining their spots in the NSW State of Origin side.

Meanwhile the Bulldogs are coming off a hat-trick of wins over top-eight aspirants the Broncos, Panthers and Cowboys. Jarrad Hickey and Daryl Millard will again be called on to do the job in the absence of the injured Ben Hannant and Jamal Idris, while Josh Morris and Michael Ennis will be pushing their claims for a Blues call-up.

This game will be an emotional one for Hazem El Masri, his first since announcing he will be hanging up his boots at season’s end.
