Here's just my early thoughts on the weekends games. Would love to hear what others have to say.
NRL ROUND 6 - Early preview
EELS(home) vs DOGS(away) - Lean dogs -6
Despite eels being at home I think the dogs should take this one comfortably. They played better than the scoreline suggest vs the dragons and eels at home so far this season has been dismal.
TITANS vs TIGERS - leans tigers -1.5
The tigers have been very inconsistent so far this season, getting destroyed by roosters 2 weeks ago to a very solid win over the rabbitohs. But the titans aren't good enough at the moment to back with only a 1.5 start.
EAGLES vs WARRIORS - lean eagles -5.5
Huge comeback by them last weekend will boost their confidence after a mediocre start to the season. I think they will start playing some better football now and warriors away from home will feel the brunt of it.
ROOSTERS vs BRONCOS - lean broncs +2.5/Under
Broncs one of the in form teams so far this season with the best defensive record by quite a bit. I'd look for the under in this game especially if it's as high as 38-40 like it was vs the knights, parker cant kick to save himself.
COWBOYS vs RAIDERS - lean cows -4.5
raiders have orford out, big blow to them. I see cowboys running away with this at home despite having cooper and tamou out. matty bowen to score 3!
KNIGHTS vs SHARKS - sharks +7.5
7.5 is too high for the knights in this game.
PANTHERS vs STORM - storm -6
Storm finally have been hitting form in the last 2 weeks after their embarassing loss to the cowboys. Expecting their roll to continue.
SOUTHS vs DRAGONS - dragons -6.5/OVER
Souths are pretenders, dragons are the real deal. I think souths will struggle to make the top 8. Expecting a high scoring match so look out for the OVER.
