Best Bet

Papua New Guinea +3.5
Line

Papua New Guinea simply should not be outsiders in this game. Betting is not only disrespectful but completely wrong. The Kumuls are the best bet of the week.

This is the best Kumuls squad ever assembled and they have upgraded their team for this Test with the exciting Dudley Dotoi replacing the inconsistent Robert Derby.

It is worse news for the Bati, who have lost Jethro Rinakama and Michael Jennings. Two little-known outside backs will debut in their place.

PNG have dominated Fiji with five wins in the last seven including the last two by double digits.

The Kumuls have won eight of their last 10 against Tier 2 nations while they have won 10 of their last 13 in Port Moresby by 18-plus.

Confidence could not be any higher on the Kumuls.

Chips in the Kumuls minus.

Same Game Multi

Alex Johnston is on the verge of being the greatest tryscorer in premiership history with 210 ties in 243 games.

Dudley Dotoi is a star on the rise and a tryscoring machine with 37 tries in 36 games for the Townsville Blackhawks.

Zac Laybutt has three tries in his four-Test career and gets an A1 matchup against a Test debutant.


Value Bet

Edwin Ipape
To Score A Try

PNG have brought in the big names for this series and the best of those is Leigh star hooker Edwin Ipape. Ipape is one of the best rakes in the world and it is his running game that best defines him. He has 44 tries in 103 games across four seasons for the Leopards so knows his way to the tryline. He has three tries in 12 games in his national colours and looked dangerous with ball in hand against Cook Islands.
