Best Bet

Over 48.5
Total Points

Everything about this match screams over from Melbourne’s ability to score, North Queensland’s inability to defend and the recent history between these two sides.

These two love combining for plenty of points. The last three between these two have hit 52 points. The last four matches have gone over the total.

The over is 12-5 in the last 17 Storm games. The over is 10-1 when the Storm are off conceding six or fewer. It is 16-8 when the Storm are off scoring 20. The over is 11-5 when the Storm are favoured.

This is a strong over spot for the Cowboys too. The over is 20-12 when the Cowboys are off scoring 30-plus. The over is 6-3 when they are a home underdog. The over is 14-6 when the Cowboys play at home off a win. North Queensland have conceded at least 24 in eight straight while they have hit 26 in four of those.

Get right around the over here.


Same Game Multi

Eliesa Katoa Try/Jahrome Hughes Try
Same Game Multi

Eliesa Katoa has six tries in 14 games this year and the Cowboys edges are diabolical defensively.

Jahrome Hughes can’t stop scoring at the moment with four tries in his last three games.


Value Bet

Tyran Wishart
To Score 2+ Tries

Tyran Wishart has an excellent tryscoring record as a starter in the NRL with 10 tries in 16 starts. Included in that are two doubles. In what should be a high-scoring affair, Wishart looks huge odds to score and score multiple times.
