SOUTH SYDNEY RABBITOHS VS MANLY SEA EAGLES –Â FRIDAY 24 SEPTEMBER, 7.50PM, SUNCORP STADIUM
Manly could not have been more impressive in their 42-6 win over the Roosters last week and they will have to draw on all of that confidence when they meet a primed Rabbitohs outfit on Friday night.
The Bunnies come in fresh from a momentum-building win of their own against the Panthers two weeks ago, while they’ll also take comfort in knowing they’ve beaten the Sea Eagles in each of their last four meetings.
Souths and Manly both rank second and third respectively in points scored this year, while it’s worth noting the last three meetings between the two have all gone Over the Total.
- Â 3 units Sea Eagles -2 @ $2Â with TopSport
- Â 1 unit under 45.5 total match points @ $1.90 with TopSport
MELBOURNE STORM VS PENRITH PANTHERS –Â SATURDAY 25 SEPTEMBER, 4.00PM, SUNCORP STADIUM
This is the match-up we all thought would be happening in the Grand Final but it wasn’t to be after the Storm absolutely dominated the Panthers 37-10 only a few weeks ago.
The Storm dominated the possession count and completed 90% of their sets on the way to a commanding 28-point win – a performance Bellamy will be hoping his side can replicate against a Panthers team that managed only eight points against the Eels last week.
The Panthers certainly have the talent to turn it around here but the smart money will be with the Storm.
- Â Â 3 units Storm -8.5 @ $2Â with TopSport
-   2 units over 41.5 total match points @ $1.90 with TopSport
