After Wednesday night it’s a case of punter beware this weekend as we don't know who is going to back up.
Tonight Brisbane has lost Lockyer, Hodges, Thaiday and maybe Hunt and South’s could be without Crocker.
The thing about South’s is they always play bad after they win the previous week. The Broncos are always average after Origin and I just can't warm to them. This one if a flip of the coin job.
The Bulldogs are a little better off injury wise and I think they are the best bet of the weekend against the Titans who are backing up from Monday night. The 4 day back up is tough and too tough for the Gold Coast minus Harrison.
The 2 games on Saturday shouldn't be too hard to pick. Penrith were awful last week and I can't tip them especially if Jennings doesn't play, Canberra to win.
Manly will be fired up to bounce back with the cavalry of stars returning even though Matai is a loss, the Sharks have no Gallen and possibly no Barrett, so no chance.
The Sunday game between the Roosters and the Warriors is a stat man’s dream.
The Warriors have averaged 14pts a game and the Roosters scoring average isn't much better. The Roosters just.
And the Tigers maybe favourites against the Cowboys but one team is nearer last than first and the other is 5th and playing for a top 4 spot. Makes me think the Cows have more to play for. They are good value even at Leichardt Oval.
I know the away record is awful but my senses tell me an upset is on the cards.
Best of the weekend
Bulldogs all up Manly
