Parramatta have lost Mitchell Moses and Tom Trbojevic’s touted return did not come to fruition but points should still be plentiful when these two old rivals meet.
Best Bet
This is a difficult game to assess from a match-winner perspective. Betting is extremely close with Manly favoured by 1.5 points but they have to endure the divide that last week’s protest/bigotry created. The Eels come off an incredibly impressive 24-point win over Penrith but are without star half Mitchell Moses.
There is a strong play on the over in this one though. These two may have an old-school rivalry but that has not resulted in low-scoring games. The over is 16-11 in their last 27 and has hit in eight of their last 10.
This is a big over spot for the Sea Eagles. The over is 30-13 when Manly are off a loss, 14-y when they are off scoring 12 or fewer and 13-5 when the Sea Eagles play at Brookvale under $2.00.
The over is 8-2 when the Eels play away from CommBank under $2.00. It is 7-3 when the Eels are off conceding 10 or fewer.
The total is on the way up but remains a bet up to 45.5.
Same Game Multi
Maika Sivo has six tries in his last four games and has long proven himself tremendous tryscorer.
Clint Gutherson has scored 11 tries this year and has five in his last six games.
Tolutau Koula has four tries in his last five games as he finds his feet in the NRL.
Value Bet
Shaun Lane has 21 tries in 99 starts in the NRL and a further nine off the bench. He has just two this year but is perennially a threat and the Eels will likely focus their attack down the left with Moses out.
