I'm almost certain that either Manly or Melbourne are losing straight up today.

[showtiime]

I'm almost certain that either Manly or Melbourne are losing straight up today.

I'm certain they're not.

[hawley]

I'm almost certain that either Manly or Melbourne are losing straight up today.

Really?

After seeing the Eels on Monday night, and the fact the Titans have stunk all year and are now missing Scotty Prince either would be a massive upset

[GAMBLOR777]

This is both teams' "grand final". They will get up for the fans.

[hawley]

Not looking like a bad call Gamblor, I forgot what happened last time these two played.. think it was MNF and Manly stole the game on full time with a wolfman kick.

[GAMBLOR777]

pathetic second half from parra, schoolboy errors throughout.

oh well, nearly had it. I'd make that same play in that spot 9 times out of 10.

anyway i'm excited about the EPL starting up later tonight gonna go over my plays.

tough loss, looks like the cowboys spread was the only play

[dRavidC]

yeah sorry dude didn't have a play for this one. couldn't find any prominent angles to look at the game through.

for tomorrow's games i'm having a close look at the bulldogs +10.5

yes the bulldogs have looked terrible in the past few weeks despite winning, especially against cronulla but in all honesty manly haven't been that flash either. line, history + form (manly have shown their sniplets of their attacking capabilities. bulldogs have shown close to nothing!) says manly will absolutely destroy the heck out of the bulldogs. but the bulldogs know that they need to win this to keep any hopes of a top 8 birth alive. hence i think motivation as well as revenge plays a massive massive factor which is why I think the bulldogs can at least keep it within single digits if they do not get the W. my early take on it so far.

[benrama]

Bulldogs were really, really horrible in MNF and they had all the motivation in the world to be otherwise. They are lacking discipline and patience in attack and are not making the right decisions. When they played Manly on their home ground in Round 13 they were beaten 38-4, and I think a large part of this is the professionalism and execution of a team like the Sea Eagles grinding down on them.

That said, it doesn't take much luck to cover a 10.5 point spread.

yeah good call. a small part of me thinks that the bulldogs will play their best game of the season to keep their finals hopes alive. after saying this, the bulldogs will prob. lose like 40-0 with the way my luck's going. also looking at wests -10 but it's hard to pull the trigger as parra will officially be 16th on the ladder if they lose this. whilst i don't think they'll win they do strike me as a team that can keep it close when they "play" and they usually play really well against the tigers.

Warriors getting a head start feels like Manly v Storm on Friday night, getting the points on the form team seems like a gift but bookies aren't in the business of giving gifts, so I think I'm going to take the Dragons -6. I do like the Brisbane play, they are a beast at home.

BOL.

[GAMBLOR777]

thinking about taking titans +2.5 PYOL @ 6.00

thoughts?

[hawley]

thinking about taking titans +2.5 PYOL @ 6.00

thoughts?

Whats the angle?

Apart from the inevitable MNF pokies curse

[GAMBLOR777]

titans own the tigers, historically

tigers already guaranteed finals berth

titans not really playing for anything, but I still think they will show up

from what I've seen this year, the larger spreads usually end up being close games

I don't know...something tells me this might be the parlay killer of the round

[hawley]

Tigers have a top 4 spot on the line here bro.

THey win this week and next week against the sharks and they have a home final round 1.

I think they win for sure, not so sure about covering that spread.

Maybe if it was the Titans last home game but they still have the Eels next week at home in a wooden spoon playoff match which im sure they are targeting already.
