Best Bet
Manly have lost star Tom Trbojevic but they remain an excellent bet getting a very nice start at home against Melbourne.
Jahrome Hughes is not named in the 17 – though is in the extended squad – and confidence will only increase if the Storm star is missing.
Home underdogs of a try or more in Rounds 5-8 cover at a very good clip of 63%.
Manly are a different team at Brookvale too. They are 21-13 ATS at the ground including a 5-2 cover record in day games and a 7-3 cover record off a win of 13 or more at the ground.
There is absolutely no knock on the Storm but interstate teams that are shorter than $2 off an interstate trip cover at just 31%.
The Sea Eagles are being wildly underrated in this matchup and can be bet with confidence to cover the line in a game they can win outright.
Same Game Multi
Ryan Papenhuyzen has scored doubles the last two times he has played the Sea Eagles.
Jason Saab has loved playing Melbourne with five tries in five meetings.
Value Bet
Ethan Bullemor has looked a different player this season, running with a fierceness and vigour not seen previously. He has crossed three times this year including scoring a double in Round 3 against the Raiders.
