BRISBANE BRONCOS VS PENRITH PANTHERS – THURSDAY APRIL 15, 7:50PM, SUNCORP STADIUM

The Panthers continued their remarkable winning run last Friday by defeating the Raiders 30-10, improving to 5-0 for the first time in club history and making it 22 wins from their past 23 matches.

Things looked ominous for the Panthers early on last week against the Raiders before Charlie Staines kicked things into gear with a crucial try in the 26th minute.

Kevin Walters has finally lost patience with veteran playmaker Anthony Milford, which could act as a line in the sand moment for the embattled club. Brodie Croft takes Milford’s spot at five-eighth while Jesse Arthars replaces Tesi Niu in the centres. Penrith has named an unchanged 17.

The Broncos have allowed 24 points or more in all five of their games so far, which spells obvious trouble against a top-five scoring side like Penrith.

MELBOURNE STORM VS SYDNEY ROOSTERS – FRIDAY APRIL 16, 7:55PM, AAMI STADIUM

The Storm will go into Friday’s blockbuster as heavy favourites against the battered and bruised Roosters.

Despite picking up a crucial win over the Sharks last week, the tri-colours were still dealt a loss on the front lines with hooker Freddy Lussick now set to miss up to eight weeks with a broken arm.

After throttling the Broncos two weeks ago, Craig Bellamy’s crew picked up right where it left off last week with a thorough 52-18 beatdown over the Bulldogs in Sydney.

Unlike the Storm, the Roosters have been made to earn their past two, especially last week, as they scored four tries in the final 20 minutes to overrun the Sharks 26-18.


MANLY SEA EAGLES VS GOLD COAST TITANS – SATURDAY APRIL 17, 3:00PM, GLEN WILLOW OVAL

Manly has every right to feel confident following a thrilling one-point win over the Warriors, but their track record against the Gold Coast does make another upset seem unlikely.

The Sea Eagles have lost four of their last five against the Titans, while the fact Jack Gosiewski and Dylan Walker are now set for an extended stint on the sidelines only complicates matters.

The Titans are seeking their fourth win after six rounds – they only had one at this stage last year – by playing a highly entertaining brand of football. They had eight line breaks and 30 tackle busts against the Knights.

The Sea Eagles weren’t so shoddy with 27 tackle breaks against the Warriors but they are still the second-worst defensive side in the NRL at present.

ST GEORGE-ILLAWARRA DRAGONS VS NEW ZEALAND WARRIORS – SUNDAY APRIL 18, 2:00PM, NESTRATA JUBILEE STADIUM

The Warriors will be desperate to avoid a third straight loss on Sunday when they meet the red-hot Dragons at Jubilee.

Injuries and some awful luck played a large part in last week’s agonizing one-point loss to Manly, but head coach Nathan Brown does have reason to feel confident considering his side has won four straight over St George dating back to 2018.

After starting the season outside of most people’s top eights, new coach Anthony Griffin has got everyone headed in the right direction. They’ve won four in a row to be sitting in fourth spot.

A feature of their surge has been the play of their forwards. That unit will be put to a stern test against the Warriors.

NORTH QUEENSLAND COWBOYS VS CANTERBURY BULLDOGS – SUNDAY APRIL 18, 4:05PM, QUEENSLAND COUNTRY BANK STADIUM

North Queensland’s win over the Tigers last week has only added further spice to this year’s battle for the wooden spoon.

With their first win now in hand, the Dogs remain the only winless side in the competition following a 52-18 blowout at the hands of the Storm last week.

These two sides have played out some thrillers in recent years and it is very tough to feel overly confident in either team.

On one hand, the Cowboys nearly managed to blow their 28-6 half-time lead last week against the Tigers, while on the other, the Dogs have allowed over 170 points to their opponents already this season.
