NRL Round 9, Tips and Previews
Raiders vs. Bulldogs
May 6th
Sorry to do this you all.
Canberra and Canterbury is the game of the round from a betting perspective with the head to head market going $1.90 each of two.
It has been a deadset struggle for these two teams in 2022 with the pressure being applied to both Ricky Stuart and Trent Barrett.
The Raiders are obviously more touted than their Bulldog counterparts, but you could barely tell that by looking at the table.
In a game which could be decided by a field goal at the death, the Raiders do actually represent a bet on their home deck against a team pretty much bound for the wooden spoon if it cannot get its act together.
SUGGESTED BET:
Raiders head to head win at $1.90
Panthers vs. Eels
May 6th
Penrith attempts to keep its amazing run to its premiership defence intact when it faces Parramatta on Friday night.
The Panthers have gone 8-0 from their first eight games and have plummeted into near unbackable favourites for the premiership yet again.
Parramatta stands in the path of the reigning premier, but would need to reverse what could only be described as a pitiful defeat against North Queensland last week.
It might have just been a blip on the radar for the Eels who have the talent to be very competitive against the Panthers.
But we simply cannot bet against this Panthers team unless injuries or H&S protocols rip through the squad.
SUGGESTED BET:
Panthers -12.5 at $1.89
Sea Eagles vs. Tigers
April 24th
The pace and electricity of Turbo Tom are back into the fold for Manly as they prepare to face West Tigers.
Manly has had a topsy turvy start to the season and will be wanting to reverse a two-game losing streak against a Wests Tigers capable of producing an upset.
It was only back in April where Wests put their season back on track with wins against the Eels and Souths, but fell back into losing ways against St George.
With Tom Trbojevic charging through from full back complimenting Daly Cherry-Evans, Sea Eagles have the advantage here.
