What We Like

With some rain around Sydney this weekend, it’s hard to imagine this clash being high-scoring. Set to be the opposite, clashes between the two sides normally to fall under the total score line.

Final Thought

The Wests Tigers have won three of their past four against the Bulldogs at CommBank Stadium and will receive Apisai Korisau and Jahream Bula back this weekend.

What We Like

The Roosters have won just two matches against the Storm since 2020 – losing 12 times – in what is their worst record against any rival team bar the Panthers.

Match Result Melbourne Storm $2.13

Final Thought

Storm outside back and former New Zealand Rugby Sevens star Moses Leo has scored three tries in his past two matches.

What We Like

Although the Dragons have won eight of their last ten against the Broncos since 2018, they remain winless this season and don’t look anywhere near getting a win anytime soon.

Match Result Brisbane Broncos $1.11

Final Thought

In his last match at the Dragons, fullback Reece Walsh scored a double, and he could become the third Bronco to do so in back-to-back matches, which will see him join Kotoni Staggs and Matt Gillett.

To Score 2 or More Tries Reece Walsh $2.65

Match Result North Queensland Cowboys $2.15

Final Thought

Playing his 150th match in the NRL, Hudson Young will need to provide an inspirational performance if the Raiders are to have any chance of winning and what better way to do that than scoring a try.
