NRL Round 17, Tips and Previews
Sea Eagles vs. Raiders
July 8th
Manly rides the wave of an enormous 66-0 victory last week when it faces a Canberra side desperate to find some winning consistency in its season.
The 44-6 loss handed to Ricky Stuart and his men left a bitter taste in their mouth and a game against such an inform Manly team make their finals quest all the more difficult.
Tom Trbojveic and Reuben Garrick just continue to pile on the the points alongside Jason Saab.
SUGGESTED BET:
Sea Eagles -15.5 at $1.90
Rabbitohs vs. Cowboys
July 9th
South Sydney is tasked with thwarting the threat posed by North Queensland when the teams meet on Friday night.
Expect a response from the Cowboys after their horrific 38-0 loss when they did not even look like scoring at any stage of the match.
The Souths, however, scooted away with a 38-22 win over Wests Tigers and should continue that winning form here.
SUGGESTED BET:
Rabbitohs -16.5 at $1.90
Bulldogs v Roosters
July 10th
The season just goes from bad to worse for Canterbury when it faces Sydney on Saturday afternoon.
The Bulldogs were held scoreless again and put in a stinker against Manly to go down 66-0 and all but seal its fate as the worst team in the league this season.
This just had to be a game where Sydney belt the Bulldogs if they consider themselves a genuine premiership team.
James Tedesco will prove a handful as he always does.
SUGGESTED BET:
Roosters -22.5 at $1.90
Sharks vs. Warriors
July 11th
The Rabbitohs looked in good touch a fortnight ago, beating the Eels 38-20 at home. The Hooker Damien Cook and Centre Dane Gagai, have been in red hot form-scoring at will in that game a fortnight ago. They now look set to face Newcastle Knights, who are coming off a great victory against Manly last weekend. The party looks like it will end here.
As the Rabbitohs hold the form against the Knights, winning 8 out of their last 9 times. We are predicting they hold the form and make it 9/10.South Tipping Rabbitohs by 22 points.
