NRL Round 24 Tips

Thursday 15/8/24
7:50pm Penrith Panthers vs Melbourne Storm @ BlueBet Stadium
The Panthers looked toast against the Eels last week, but three late tries got them the win over their rivals.
They now face the Storm, who are the second-best team in the NRL behind the Panthers, and we expect the Panthers to win.
With Nathan Cleary back, they are back to their old ways of winning, and the-5.5 line is well worth taking.
Betting tip: Panthers –5.5 @ $1.90

6:00pm Manly Sea Eagles vs New Zealand Warriors @ 4 Pines Park
The season went from bad to worse for the Warriors after losing in golden point to the Dolphins on Sunday.
They now face the red-hot Sea Eagles, who were far too good for the Raiders last week, and that’s an excellent form guide.
Covering –14.5 won’t be easy, but we can’t put our money on the Warriors.
Betting tip: Sea Eagles –14.5 @ $1.90

8:00pm Sydney Roosters vs Parramatta Eels @ Allianz Stadium
The Eels showed their usual toughness against the Panthers, but it’s a pity they don’t show that against other teams.
After giving up what looked like a secured win, the Eels could get run over by the Roosters, hence the big –15.5 line.
When the Roosters are in the mood to score, they can put up big numbers, and it should be a one-sided affair on Friday night.
Betting tip: Roosters –15.5 @ $1.90

3:00pm Canterbury Bulldogs vs Dolphins @ Salter Oval
The Bulldogs look every part a playoffs contender, and we rate them much better than the Dolphins.
They have played tough rugby league in 2024, and there seems to be a belief in the team that they can beat any team.
The Dolphins only scraped past the Warriors last week, and they have a tendency to not play 80 minutes, so expect the Bulldogs to capitalise.
Betting tip: Bulldogs –5.5 @ $1.90
Bulldogs by 8
5:30pm North Queensland Cowboys vs Canberra Raiders @ Country Bank Stadium
The Cowboys and Raiders come off disappointing losses, but the Cowboys were embarrassed at home against the Brisbane Broncos.
We’re not sure what went wrong, but the Raiders are an easier team to face, and the Cowboys should get back to winning form.
Consistency isn’t there, but they’re still a dangerous team on their day.
Betting tip: Cowboys –6.5 @ $1.90
Cowboys by 10
7:35pm Wests Tigers vs South Sydney Rabbitohs @ Campbelltown Stadium
It’s a battle of the bad teams, and because the Tigers get +6.5 points, we’re backing them to cover.
Backing either team isn’t an easy thing to do, so we don’t imagine much money being invested in this Round 24 game.
The quality won’t be high, but take the Tigers to keep it close.
Betting tip: Tigers +6.5 @ $1.90

Sunday 18/8/24
2:00pm St George Dragons vs Gold Coast Titans @ WIN Stadium
The Titans were playing well until they got hammered by the Sharks last week, so we’re finding it hard to back them against the Dragons.
St George also comes off a loss, but it looked slightly better when losing to the Bulldogs. It only needs to spark up the offense to win this game.
We’re backing the Dragons to win and cover the –5.5 spread against a team suddenly lacking confidence.
Betting tip: Dragons –5.5 @ $1.90
Dragons by 8
4:05pm Cronulla Sharks vs Newcastle Knights @ PointsBet Stadium
The Sharks come off an incredible win over the Titans, and there is every chance of them winning big over the Knights.
They once led the competition before going off the boil, but they’re back at their best, and the Knights could be in for a long night.
The current line is –8.5, and although that’s big, the Sharks could score another big win.
Betting tip: Sharks –8.5 @ $1.90
