Cowboys +4.5 @ $1.90

The Cowboys will need to play well to handle the Sea Eagles at 4 Pines Park, but what we saw from the Sea Eagles last week wasn’t good.

They didn’t play with confidence, and their play from earlier this season has gone to the wayside after losing to the Sharks, Bulldogs, and Eels over the last five weeks. It’s not encouraging form, and the Cowboys could exploit them.

The Cowboys ended a three-game losing streak with a win over Penrith in Round 17 before a much-deserved bye. That was a confidence building performance, and another win could see them inside the top eight.

Recent history is against them, with the Sea Eagles winning 38-6 earlier this season. However, they’re not playing as well now, and as the finals get closer, it’s all about momentum, so take the Cowboys with the +4.5 start.

Cowboys +4.5, Murray Taulagi Anytime Try Scorer, Jeremiah Nanai Anytime Try Scorer, Over 48.5 @ $11.50

Murray Taulagi looked good when scoring a try in his latest game, and he could score a try for the Cowboys on Sunday. He has five tries in his last five games, so the $1.84 odds are worth including in NRL picks.

Jeremiah Nanai is paying $2.95 to score, despite scoring three tries from his last two games. It’s an excellent price, and it gives a big boost to payouts.

We predict a try-fest, and they combined for 44 points in April despite the Cowboys scoring only six points. They’ll score more this time around, so back the over.

Best Value Bet

Jeremiah Nanai First Try Scorer @ $15.00

Bet Now

Nanai is playing for Queensland on Wednesday, but he should be ready to produce a big effort with a few days in between.

Playing on Sunday evening helps give Nanai time to recover, and he could get the game started with a bang for the Cowboys.

His recent form is excellent since returning from a shoulder injury, so take the $15 odds.
