NRL Tips – Sea Eagles v Dolphins

Manly’s season has collapsed as injuries have taken hold but the Sea Eagles are way over the odds when they host the Dolphins as huge home underdogs.

There has been absolutely no love afforded Manly this week with the Dolphins installed as 10.5-point favourites to roll Manly at Brookvale.

That line is simply too big. Manly are a tremendous bet getting 10.5 points on home turf, particularly with the exciting Clayton Faulalo back at fullback.

Home underdogs of eight or more cover at 61% and after Round 20, that bumps to 66%.

Manly are 9-3 ATS as an underdog of at least eight while they are 15-10 ATS off a loss of 10 or more. Off conceding 30, the Sea Eagles are 14-8 against the number.

This is not a particularly strong spot for the Dolphins either. They are 2-6 ATS as an interstate favourite while they have covered just three of nine laying at least eight points.

Manly can win this.

Selwyn Cobbo has been in career-best form with 13 tries in 15 games this season as he has reignited his career.

Tolutau Koula has scored in every Sea Eagles-Dolphins game and can extend that streak to five.

Clayton Faulalo has been exceptional at fullback when given the opportunity, scoring in all four starts with the No.1 on his back.

Joey Walsh has been a prolific tryscorer in the lower grades and that is starting to translate to the NRL even with Manly losing. Walsh has 14 tries in 24 NSW Cup games including seven in nine matches this season. He has three tries in seven starts in the NRL and has been put up a highly disrespectful price.
