The Knights are once-again being underestimated by the market who have overvalued Kalyn Ponga’s impact and overrated the Warriors.
Best Bet
Newcastle are a sensational bet getting 4.5 at home against a New Zealand team that is struggling.
The Knights have won nine straight home Sunday matches and should be incredibly confident about making it 10.
Newcastle have covered five of the last seven against New Zealand. They have won the last three clashes with the Warriors in the Hunter.
The Knights have covered five straight as a home underdog and are 12-5 ATS when playing an afternoon game.
The Warriors have fallen into a rut of late with their rotations all wrong and their attack too premeditated.
They have covered just 13 of 35 when favoured and cover just 42% of games away from Mt Smart.
Very keen Newcastle here.
Same Game Multi
David Armstrong scored a try on debut, continuing on his excellent tryscoring form from NSW Cup level.
Greg Marzhew has 23 tries in 27 games since joining the Knights.
Value Bet
Dylan Lucas is coming on as an excellent contibutor for the Knights, a hardworking tackler who runs an excellent line. He has four tries in 14 NRL games including two in his last four. Huge price.
