Best Bet
With Tom Trbojevic in extreme doubt for Manly’s home clash with Canberra, it is impossible to recommend any early plays for a side play here. The Sea Eagles have a tremendous record at Brookvale, particularly off a loss, but Turbo is far too important to them and with such a diabolical record in his absence and the big line move in betting to the Raiders, all indications are he will be out.
This sets up well for the under with the Sea Eagles now missing their leading attacking weapon.
The under hits at 66% when a team in the opening four rounds is playing interstate and 66% when a team is off conceding 18 or more. Over that same timeframe, the under hits at 62% when an underdog is off a win.
Canberra are typically an under team to start the season under Ricky Stuart to boot.
With the number so high, the under is a quality play.
Same Game Multi
Jason Saab is an elite tryscorer with 65 tries in 89 games.
Hudson Young scored around once every three games and has three tries in his last four games against Manly.
Value Bet
Canberra English import Matty Nicholson was outstanding on his Raiders debut, crossing twice against Brisbane in a stunning performance. He was a noted tryscorer back in his homeland with 19 tries in 51 games for Wigan and Warrington.
