NRL Round 3 Preview: Our Selections & Staking Plan

After a slow start we were able to secure another profit in round 2 which saw our total move to +7.62 units but we’re not going to stop there with 12 units staked across 6 games.

PENRITH PANTHERS VS MELBOURNE STORM – THURSDAY 25TH MARCH, 7:05PM, PANTHERS STADIUM

The Grand Final rematch has been soured by the loss of Papenhuyzen & Cleary who both suffered head knocks last week but we can still expect this to be a blockbuster.

Last year’s decider is the only time the Panthers have lost in their last 20 matches, having started 2021 with a bang, scoring 52 points and conceding zero.

Home field advantage is one of the main factors for the Panthers opening as favourites, but it’s still hard to knock the Storm on the back of a loss.

Melbourne very rarely loses back-to-back games, evident in the fact they’ve finished last season a perfect 4-0 off the back of a previous defeat.

ST GEORGE-ILLAWARRA DRAGONS VS MANLY SEA EAGLES – FRIDAY 26TH MARCH, 5:00PM, WIN STADIUM

St. George Illawarra Dragons got their first win in the bag on Saturday night against the struggling Cowboys, and they have a chance to put another two points on the board when they face a vulnerable Manly Sea Eagles outfit in Wollongong.

Now joining Tom Trbojevic, Curtis Sironen, and a handful of others on the sideline is experienced back-rower Andrew Davey, who suffered a season-ending knee injury last week in the loss to the Rabbitohs.

With their stars still a few games away from returning, this is yet another tough assignment going up against a Dragons side that has typically held their number in recent times.

St George has won four of its last five over Manly, including a 34-4 drubbing when these two sides met at Jubilee in Round 9 last year.

SOUTH SYDNEY RABBITOHS VS SYDNEY ROOSTERS – FRIDAY 26TH MARCH, 7:05PM, STADIUM AUSTRALIA

South Sydney atoned for their opening loss to the Storm last week with a convincing 26-12 win over Manly, but Wayne Bennett’s side is about to face another tough test going up against a white-hot Roosters side.

The tri-colours have cruised to back-to-back victories over the Sea Eagles and Tigers so far, although it’s safe to say this game will also provide a serious evaluation of the Roosters’ finals credentials.

The Rabbitohs famously shocked the two-time reigning premiers in the final round of the 2020 regular season, recording a 60-8 demolition, although a repeat of that this Friday seems highly unlikely.

On the injury front, the Rabbitohs are set to go without Adam Reynolds and Jaxson Paulo, while the Roosters are set to welcome back Victor Radley from a suspension.

The Rabbitohs are 3-1 head-to-head as the away underdog against Sydney with the last two meetings between these sides both going over the total.

The Rabbitohs typically struggle without Reynolds while Radley adds a lot of strike power to the Roosters so stick with them.

CANBERRA RAIDERS VS NEW ZEALAND WARRIORS – SATURDAY 27TH MARCH, 2:00PM, GIO STADIUM

The Raiders have started the season a perfect 2-0, but they didn’t impress last week against the Sharks.

Canberra spent most of the second half defending their territory, a potential recipe for disaster against a hungry Warriors side looking to bounce back from a close call to the Knights.

Unfortunately for Warriors fans, all of the preseason hype looks to be moot.

Star five-eighth Chanel Harris-Tavita is set to miss up to 12 weeks with a fracture in his foot – a big loss for coach Nathan Brown with Euan Aitken on the sidelines for an equal amount of time.

Canberra, much like last year, has struggled to string together two consistent halves this season, which leaves the current double=digit line looking a little generous.

NEWCASTLE KNIGHTS VS WESTS TIGERS – SATURDAY 27TH MARCH, 3:05PM, MCDONALD JONES STADIUM

The Knights will be looking to stamp themselves as a top 4 outfit heading into Mitchell Pearce’s 300th NRL match.

The former Rooster has seen just about everything in the game. What better way to celebrate a milestone than to play a starring role in helping the Knights continue their winning start to 2021.

So far the Tigers have looked like the ill-disciplined, sloppy team we came to know towards the back end of last year, which has also forced Michael Maguire to drop Joey Leilua from the team this week.
