What We Like
Making his 100th appearance for the Storm this week, all eyes will be on outside back Nick Meaney who will look to score in his milestone match.
Final Thought
Yet to win at home this season, the odds are stacked against the Raiders this week especially considering that the Strom have not lost at the venue since 2016.

What We Like
While the Dolphins have struggled recently, fullback Hamiso Tabuai-Fidow has been in fine form scoring six tries in three matches against the Panthers.
Final Thought
It’s hard to go against the Penrith Panthers especially considering their great start to the season. Coming off their first loss of 2026 they will be eager to get back to the winning column this weekend.

Jenson Taumoepeau
What We Like
The Titans have won six of the last eight meetings between the two clubs and are coming off their best performance of the season against the Eels.
Final Thought
Both teams are coming off commanding away victories which saw them score 50 points, so you can expect this to be a very high scoring contest.

Lyhkan King-Togia
What We Like
The South Sydney Rabbitohs have won three of their past four matches against the Dragons. Meanwhile, the Dragons remain winless through the 2026 NRL season.
Final Thought
Returning to the NRL after a multi-year hiatus out of the game, Matthew Dufty will come up against his former team and it’s hard to go past him at least crossing the line once for a try.

What We Like
Coming off a hat-trick against the Knights at the same exact venue, Tigers winger Sunia Turuva will look to continue his amazing form this weekend and try to get his side the win.
Final Thought
Chasing a 5-1 start for the first time since 2018, the equal first Tigers outfit are in great form, while the Broncos will be missing several key players due to injury this week.

James Schiller
What We Like
Unchanged after last week’s victory, the Roosters have won eight of their past nine matches against the Knights – who are coming off a massive and embarrassing loss to the Tigers.
Final Thought
Taking on his former team, Knights winger Dominic Young will look to find his best football against the Roosters and is unstoppable in clear space down the edge of the field.

Jezaiah Funa-Luta 22. Mohamed Alameddine
What We Like
Currently in contention for an Origin debut for the NSW Blues, Jacob Preston manages to find the try-line with ease despite playing in the fowards.
Final Thought
The Eels have conceded 122 points in their past three defeats, so a big score is likely to happen especially when you consider that the Bulldogs have won the past three meetings.
