Best Bet
Newcastle’s form since sacking Adam O’Brien and replacing him with Justin Holbrook has been nothing short of astonishing, opening the season 3-1. They enter this off a stunning win over Canterbury as a 13.5-point underdog.
It has been a very different start to the season for the Raiders with last year’s minor premiers opening the year 1-3.
The Knights have covered nine of the last 13 against the Raiders and home underdogs Rounds 5-8 cover at 62% since 2008.
Afternoon football suits the Knights with Newcastle 27-13 ATS in day games while they are 21-14 ATS off a win.
Bottom five road teams cover at just 35% Rounds 3-6 while Canberra are 15-24 ATS when favoured.
Newcastle are one of the stronger plays in Round 5.
Same Game Multis
Dominic Young comes off a superb hat-trick against Canterbury and now has 79 tries in 96 games.
Fletcher Sharpe has a wonderful tryscoring record with 23 tries in 28 NRL games.
Xavier Savage has 30 tries in 49 games across the last three seasons.
Value Bet
Dylan Lucas is one of the most underrated second rowers in the NRL and is always a tryscoring threat. He crossed last week off a great play by Fletcher Sharpe. Lucas now has 15 tries in 45 games on the back of hard running and a wonderful ability to run the right angles. He has a lot more tries coming his way.
