The Warriors pulled off their first win of the season against the Raiders last week and will look to make it two straight when the Knights hit Auckland on Easter Sunday.
Best Bet
This is a terrible betting game with no strong view. Expect New Zealand to win so will be betting them at short odds but the line seems large enough that shouldering arms is recommended.
The Warriors are unquestionably the better team and Roger Tuivasa-Sheck moving back to fullback is a huge plus. New Zealand are particularly strong through the middle, an area the Knights can be beaten in.
The Knights remain without star winger Greg Marzhew.
The Warriors have won two of the last three against the Knights, including a 40-10 smash job in the finals last year, and they have won six of the last seven against Newcastle in Auckland.
Same Game Multi
Luke Metcalf has scored in two of his three games this year and now has 10 tries in 18 starts in the No.6 jersey.
Enari Tuala has seven tries in his last 12 games and is historically an underrated tryscorer.
Value Bet
Addin Fonua-Blake is the best tryscoring prop in the NRL with 11 tries in his last 29 games. He has scored twice this year and both were the first try. The Warriors use him uniquely as a second man, out the back runner near the tryline so he should be priced like an edge backrower rather than a middle prop.
