A masterclass performance from Manly Warringah five-eighth Latu Fainu has helped the Sea Eagles to a 24-12 win over Parramatta Eels in the UNE Harold Matthews Cup Grand Final at Leichhardt Oval.
Fainu was named both Player of the Match and Player of the Series after having a hand in four of the five Manly tries. The Sea Eagles took a 10-0 lead into halftime and it was a piece of Fainu brilliance that sealed the result when the Eels threatened to come back in the second half.
With Manly in front 16-6 in the second half, Fainu nearly poked his nose through the defence in his own end before backing up on the next play to throw a cut-out pass for winger Calvin Levy to score a long range try and put the result beyond doubt.

The long-running feud between arch rivals Manly and Parramatta has erupted again in the lead-up to this weekend s junior league grand finals.
The Sea Eagles are fuming that their best player in the Harold Matthews competition - boom five-eighth Latu Fainu - was cited and appeared before the judiciary last night on a lifting tackle charge.
Manly has accused Parramatta of having Fainu cited, and the youngster was acquitted with the help of a barrister after a 90-minute hearing.
