NRL Tips – Eels v Cowboys

North Queensland somewhat atoned for conceding 82 points last week with a win over the Titans but that horrid performance against the Roosters should not be forgotten.

Eels +6.5

Don’t let one rebound performance erase the Cowboys historically awful showing against the Roosters. They are vulnerable this week and Parramatta can get them.

The Eels have struggled to win over the backend of the season but they have been a long way from diabolical.

Parramatta have an excellent record against North Queensland with seven wins in the last nine clashes. They have won the last three and won all four at CommBank. The underdog has covered six of the last seven meetings.

The Eels are in a phase of being undervalued by the market with four covers in their last five.

The value is certainly with the plus.

Tallyn Da Silva is, quite remarkably, Parramatta’s top tryscorer this season with eight tries from his 20 games – 14 of which have come off the bench. He has scored in back-to-back games and four of his last eight. He scored the last time the Eels played the Cowboys. Da Silva is great value this week.
