Wests Tigers & Manly Warringah Sea Eagles - Rugby Betting Tips

The Tigers have collapsed without their stars over the last fortnight and face another difficult task when meeting the red-hot Sea Eagles.

The Wests Tigers were one of the true surprise packets over the opening two months, not only winning out of turn but relying on a strong defensive presence.

Injuries have derailed their season though with three of their four spine members currently sidelined. Jahream Bula and Adam Doueihi are both injured while Api Koroisau is suspended. It has seen the Tigers concede 96 points the last two weeks.

That is not overly surprising with the Tigers 1-8 without Koroisau with six losses of 14 or more.

Manly have been a different team under Kieran Foran, winning five of six with a close loss to Penrith their only defeat. They have scored 28-plus in five of the six while they have not conceded more than 18.

The Sea Eagles have won seven of nine against the Tigers and this is a good spot for them having covered six of seven against Top 8 teams and 16 of 27 off scoring 30-plus.

The minus looks a reliable play.

Lehi Hopoate has scored in six straight weeks since Kieran Foran took the reins.

Tolutau Koula has 21 tries in 31 games and is a far more dangerous tryscoring prospect in the centres.

Taylan May has five tries in his last four games.

Jamal Fogarty returns from a two-week absence this week and looks a great value play to score, continuing his best tryscoring season to date. Fogarty has three tries in seven games – he has never scored more than four tries in a year. Manly halves have now scored six tries this season.
