Manly and Canberra get their 2026 seasons underway at 4 Pines Park on Saturday night, with plenty of intrigue surrounding the halves on both sides. We have our betting insights & our tips for you below.
Jamal Fogarty makes his Sea Eagles debut after swapping green for maroon in the offseason — and he’ll do it against the very Raiders side he steered to a surprise minor premiership last year. Manly will be hoping a healthy Tom Trbojevic can keep the highlight reel busy and push them back into finals contention, while Canberra arrive with a point to prove after their straight-sets September exit. For punters, revenge games, new playmakers and early-season nerves usually make for good entertainment… and sometimes even better betting angles.
