Sydney Roosters vs Penrith Panthers

NRL Odds: Roosters -4.5 / Roosters -145; Panthers +125

Thursday, March 28th, 2024, 8:00 AM
Allianz Stadium

The NRL weekend kicks off with a collision between two of the heavyweights in the competition, with both the Roosters and Panthers coming into the round after impressive victories in their previous matches. The Roosters were excellent against the Souths, while the Panthers dominated the Broncos to land a 34-12 success at home.

It could be crucial that the Roosters have home advantage this week, as they have scored a stunning 110 points in their last three matches at the Allianz Stadium.

However, the fact that the Panthers have landed eight successive victories against the Roosters is also hard to ignore. But, it could be tempting to side with the Roosters, who have won seven of their last nine home matches.

Brisbane Broncos vs North Queensland Cowboys

NRL Odds: Cowboys -1.5 / Broncos +105; Cowboys -128 / O/U 42.5

Friday, March 29th, 2024, 9:05 AM
Suncorp Stadium

The current leaders in the NRL will be looking to make a statement when they take on the Broncos this weekend, as the Cowboys go in search of a fourth successive victory to start the new season. However, this will be their biggest challenge so far this season, as the only unbeaten team in the NRL look to continue their strong start to the new campaign.

The Broncos remain a talented outfit, but they were firmly put in their place by the Panthers in their previous outing in a rematch of the Grand Final from last season.

Meanwhile, the Cowboys haven’t started the season with four successive victories since 2007. The Broncos could be an interesting play this week after winning both matches against their rivals in the NRL last season.

Cronulla-Sutherland Sharks vs Canberra Raiders

NRL Odds: Sharks -5.5 / Sharks -200; Raiders +161 / O/U 40.5

Sunday, March 31st, 2024, 8:15 AM
PointsBet Stadium

The Sharks and Raiders will both return to action on Sunday, as the two high flying teams look to bounce back to winning ways after suffering their first defeats of the new season in their previous matches.

There will be pressure on the home team, as they saw their perfect start to the campaign unravel with a blowout loss against the Wests Tigers. The Raiders would have taken slightly more positives from their defeat last weekend, as suffering a narrow 18-10 loss against the Warriors in New Zealand.

However, it is the Sharks that have enjoyed an excellent record in this fixture after winning five of their last seven against the Raiders at PointsBet Stadium. But, the overall advantage is with the visitors, who have won nine of their last ten against the Sharks. It is a match that could go either way this weekend, but the form of Ronaldo Mulitalo could be the difference, and we could see the winger playing a starring role in a big win for the Sharks.

2020 NRL Odds & Picks – Telstra Premiership Dragons vs Bulldogs Round 4
 

Previous Betting News

The Canterbury Bulldogs and St. George Illawarra Dragons will both be looking to record their first win of the 2020 season when they square off in their Round 4 matchup on Monday, June 8. With both struggling clubs in all-out ‘desperation mode’ let’s find out which one is offering the best value against their NRL betting odds.

NRL Dragons vs Bulldogs Round 4 

Why Bet On The Bulldogs at -111

Cantebury is sitting in 15th place in the NRL standings with 24 points scored and 64 points allowed defensively (-40). The Bulldogs got man-handled in their humbling 32-6 Round 3 loss to the Sea Eagles by giving up seven tries and a pair of conversions while Jake Averillo put the only points on the board by scoring one try while Nick Meaney added one conversion. The Bulldogs lost the possession battle by controlling the ball just 43 percent of the time. Canterbury also had just a 70 percent completion rate while losing the meters run matchup 1,933 to 1,418. Kieran Foran returns in the halves in place of Jack Cogger.

Why Bet On The Dragons at -111

The Dragons are in 14th place in the NRL standings with 42 points scored and 74 allowed defensively (-32). St. George put up a lethargic effort in their 18-0 shutout loss against New Zealand last week. The Dragons allowed three tires and a pair of conversions in the loss while getting blanked across the board offensively. St. George lost the possession battle 53-47 percent while allowing the warriors to complete an insane 96 percent of their passes. Last, but not least, St. George lost the meters run battle 2,188 to 2,116.

Despite suffering a broken nose at practice on Tuesday, Adam Clune will almost assuredly make his NRL debut at halfback. Corey Norman will shift to fullback in place of Matt Dufty. Josh Kerr has been promoted to the starting pack for Korbin Sims, while Trent Merrin and Issac Luke join the interchange with Tyrell Fuimaono dropping out.

Expert Analysis and Prediction

Canterbury might be playing at home in this Round 4 affair, but St. George has won two straight and three of the last four meetings overall, including an emphatic 36-12 smackdown in June of last year and an even more convincing 40-4 beat-down in April of last year.

Not only that, but the Dragons have put 18 more points on the board this season while allowing just 10 more points defensively. Yes, I know St, George was blanked in Round 3, but Canterbury wasn’t much better in putting just six points on the board in their own Round 3 loss. I’m going with the St. George Illawarra Dragons to get the big road upset to record their first win of the season and you should too!

Pick: Dragons 24 Bulldogs 18

General Game Info St. George Illawarra Dragons (0-0-3) vs. Canterbury Bulldogs (0-0-3)

Telstra Premiership 2020 Round 4 Matches

 
2020 NRL Odds & Picks – Telstra Premiership West Tigers vs Titans Round 4
 

Previous Betting News

The desperate Gold Coast Titans will be looking to tame the visiting Wests Tigers in order to get their first win of the 2020 NRL season when they host their opponents on Sunday, June 7. With the Titans taking another loss the last time out and the Tigers looking to build on their Round 3 win, let’s find out which team is offering the best value in this West Tigers vs Titans matchup so you can place your bets against their NRL odds.

Desperate Titans Look to Tame Tigers in Round 4 Matchup

Why Bet On The Titans at +190

The Titans are sitting in last place in the NRL standings with 18 points scored and a league-high, 106 points allowed (-88). Gold Coast was on the wrong end of a humbling 36-6 smackdown loss at the hands of the North Queensland Cowboys on Friday. Brian Kelly scored one try and Ashley Taylor added a conversion, but it wasn’t nearly enough as the Titans gave up six tries and five of six conversions in the loss. Gold Coast lost the possession battle by controlling the ball just 34 percent of the time while losing the meters run battle handily, 2,044 to 1,281.

Why Bet On The Tigers at -243

The Tigers are in seventh place in the NRL standings with 76 points scored and 72 points allowed defensively (+4). Wests improved to 2-1 on the season by beating the Cronulla-Sutherland Sharks 28-16 in Round 3 as five different players scored one try and Benji Marshall and Moses Mbye added solo conversions in the win. The Tigers won the possession battle 51-49 percent while completing 79 percent of their passes and winning the meters run battle 1,654 to 1,495.

Expert Analysis and Prediction

The Tigers have won two of the last three meetings against the Titans, including an emphatic 30-14 home win in April of 2019. More importantly, the fact of the matter is that right now, these two teams aren’t even close seeing as how the Titans have looked absolutely awful through three rounds and completely inept defensively.

Gold Coast given up a whopping 82 points over their last two matches and they looked like they couldn’t stop running water against the Cowboys last weekend. Conversely, the Tigers have scored at least 24 points in all three of their games this season while limiting the opposition to 16 points or less in two of those outings. Keep it simple for this matchup NRL betting buffs. The Wests Tigers might be on the road in Round 4, but they are, by far, the better team at both ends of the pitch!

Pick: Tigers 32 Titans 12

Telstra Premiership 2020 Round 4 Matches

 
2020 NRL Odds & Picks – Telstra Premiership Sea Eagles vs Eels Round 4
 

Previous Betting News

With the Parramatta Eels looking to stay unbeaten and the Many Sea Eagles looking to pull off the big road upset, it’s time to find out which team is offering the best value against their National Rugby League betting odds. With both championship hopeful squads looking to build on victories in their respective first, post-pandemic contests last week, let’s find out which team is going to come out on top in this intriguing Sea Eagles vs Eels matchup, along with their NRL odds.

Unbeaten Eels Look To Take Care of Business Against Visiting Sea Eagles

 Why Bet On The Eels at -166

Parramatta is sitting atop the NRL standings with a perfect 3-0 record that includes a league-high 88 points scored and a league-low 14 points allowed (+74). The Eels pounded the Brisbane Broncos 34-6 in their Round 3 matchup on Thursday as six players all scored on tries and Mitchell Moses went 5-for-6 on conversions. Parramatta dominated possession with 64 percent while nearly doubling the meters run category by racking up 2,316 to Brisbane’s 1,309. Nathan Brown is suspended for another round, but Marata Niukore more than made up for his absence. While the Eels lead the NRL in points scored after three rounds with 88, their defense has been smothering.

“If you want to be a top four team you have to be one of the best defensive teams,” said center Michael Jennings. “We’ve been working really hard and our systems are working really well … It’s better to save a try than score a try.

 Why Bet On The Sea Eagles at +129

Manly is sitting in sixth place in the NRL standings following their emphatic 32-6 smackdown win over the Canterbury Bulldogs on Sunday. The Sea Eagles have scored 45 points while allowing 32 defensively (+13). Fullback Tom Trbojevic led the way to victory by scoring two tries while five other players added successful tries in the win. Reuben Garrick added a pair of conversions, though the Sea Eagles converted just two of seven attempts. Jack Gosiewski was named on the extended bench last match after a back disc infection and remains an option for coach Des Hasler in this matchup.

Expert Analysis and Prediction

While I’m definitely not expecting Manly to simply roll over and concede victory in this matchup, I also can;t see the Sea Eagles getting the road upset in this affair because Parramatta has been so dominant at both ends of the pitch. With just two tries and 14 points allowed through three games. The Eels have set a new NRL record for fewest points allowed through three rounds. Yes, Parramatta has beaten a pair of underachieving teams, but they can only play who they line up against and they’ve dominated. With this affair going down on their home pitch, I like the Eels to get it done in a thriller!

Pick: Eels 26 Sea Eagles 18

Telstra Premiership 2020 Round 4 Matches

 
2020 NRL Odds & Picks – Telstra Premiership Roosters vs Broncos Round 4
 

Previous Betting News

The two-time defending champion Sydney Roosters will be looking to record consecutive victories when they hit the road to take on a Brisbane Broncos team that will be looking to distance themselves from an ugly effort last week. With the Broncos looking to win for the third time in four games and the Roosters looking to pick up the level of their play, let’s find out where the best value lies in this showdown so you can make your bets respectively against their NRL odds.

NRL Roosters vs Broncos Round 4 

Why Bet on Brisbane

The Broncos won their first two games before the coronavirus pandemic hit, but they were on the wrong end of a humbling 34-6 smackdown home loss at the hands of the Parramatta Eels on Thursday in Round 3. Brisbane was limited to 132 runs to the Eels’ 223 runs while missing 35 tackles in the loss. Brodie Croft scored one try and Jamayne Isaako converted their only goal, but the Broncos never challenged after tying the score at 6-6 as the Eels scored 28 unanswered points to get the win. Brisbane has scored 65 points while allowing 73 (-17) through three matches.

Why Bet On Sydney

After dropping their first two games prior to the pandemic suspension, the two-time defending champion Roosters jumped all over the Rabbitohs en route to a commanding 28-12 victory on Friday that gave them their first win of the season. Sydney made 164 runs in the game to the Rabbitohs’ 168. The Roosters had eight clean breaks to South Sydney’s modest two and they never looked back after taking a 12-6. James Tedesco led the way to victory as five different players scored one try apiece including Kyle Flanagan who added a goal in the thrilling win. The Roosters have scored 50 points and allowed 41 (+9) through three matches.

Expert Analysis and Prediction

Sydney might be the two-time defending league champions, but Brisbane has won three of the last four meetings, including a hard-fought 15-10 win the last time they met back on May 17 of 2019. This time around however, Sydney is a bit desperate and Brisbane has allowed more points than they’ve put on the board this season despite owning a winning record. Keep it simple and back the defending champs to get it done on the road!

Pick: Roosters 28 Broncos 18

Telstra Premiership 2020 Round 4 Matches

 
2020 NRL Odds & Picks – Telstra Premiership Warriors vs Panthers Round 4
 

Previous Betting News

The Penrith Panthers will look to remain unbeaten when they host a visiting New Zealand Warriors squad that will be looking to build on their first win of the season the last time out. With the Panthers looking to take care of business and the Warriors looking to play the role of road warriors, let’s find out where the best value lies in this intriguing pairing so you can place your bets against their NRL odds.

NRL Warriors vs Panthers Round 4 

Why Bet On The Panthers

Penrith didn’t get the win, but they also didn’t lose in their entertaining 14-14 draw against the Newcastle Knights on Sunday. Panthers wingers Josh Mansour and Brian To’o combined for a whopping 538 meters while Api Koroisau had a game-high 61 tackles, but Penrith struggled without suspended star Nathan Cleary. Viliame Kikau and Kurt Capewell both had tries in the loss while Stephen Crichton added a pair of conversions. The Panthers have scored 66 points and allowed 56 through three games (+10).

Why Bet On The Warriors

New Zealand lost its first two games of the season, but the Warriors bounced back in a big way in their record-breaking 18-0 shutout win over the St. George Illawarra Dragons on Saturday. In the win, the Warriors became the first team in the NRL era to complete more than 40 consecutive sets. The Warriors were almost perfect making their first mistake in their 45th set.

Young forwards Jamayne Taunoa-Brown and Eliesa Katoa led the way to victory with both scoring a try in the first half. The bad news however is that the Warriors have been limited to just 24 points through three games while allowing an overly generous 64 points defensively (-40). Both figures rank next to last in the 16-team NRL.

Expert Analysis and Prediction

While New Zealand is coming off a statement-making win the last time out, it’s important to keep in mind that they were playing a winless Dragons team that is 32 in the scoring department through three games. With that said, the Penrith Panthers simply will not roll over against New Zealand in this affair and I expect them to come out with a fantastic effort after settling for a draw in what once looked like a nearly surefire win over Newcastle the last time out. I like Penrith to take care of business on their home pitch against a new Zealand team they’ve outscored by 42 points so far this season.

Pick: Panthers 24 Warriors 12

2020 NRL Odds & Picks – Telstra Premiership Knights vs Raiders Round 4
 

Previous Betting News

The Canberra Raiders will look to hold down the fort at home when they host the Newcastle Knights in their Round 4 matchup of unbeaten championship hopefuls. With Canberra looking to build on their most recent win and Newcastle looking for a better result following their Round 3 tie the last time out, let’s find out which team is offering the best value against their NRL betting odds in this intriguing Knights vs Raiders showdown.

Canberra Raiders Host Newcastle Knights In Round 4 Battle of Unbeatens!

Why Bet On The Raiders at -188

Canberra is sitting in second place in the NRL standings with 66 points scored and just 18 points allowed defensively (+48). The Raiders are coming off a commanding 22-6 win over the Storm on Saturday that saw four players score on tries while Jarrod Croker went 3-for-4 on conversions. Despite controlling possession for just 45 percent of the match the Raiders compiled a 78 percent completion rate while managing to get the win despite being out-run 1,688 meters to 1,542. John Bateman (shoulder) and Bailey Simonsson (leg infection) will be assessed at training on Tuesday as they aim to return with Simonsson the most likely to be on the pitch in this affair.

Why Bet On The Knights at +152

The Knights are sitting in third place in the NRL standings with 76 points scored and 38 allowed (+38). Newcastle however, couldn’t pull away from the Penrith Panthers in their 14-14 Round 3 tie on Sunday. Jacob Saitifi scored one try and Bradman Best added a pair of tries while Tex Hoy went 1-for-3 on conversions. Newcastle lost the possession battle 59-41 percent while also losing in completion percentage and meters run. Kalyn Ponga is back from suspension, while halfback Mitchell Pearce should be on the pitch after taking a blow to the head in Round 3. Connor Watson is probable, but Andrew McCullough could make his debut for the Knights in this one.

Expert Analysis and Prediction

The Raiders have won two of the last three meetings against the Knights including a 17-10 home win in March of 2019. More importantly, Canberra is playing at home in this Round 4 matchup and they’ve been phenomenal defensively in allowing just 18 points through three games. I know Newcastle has scored 10 more points than Canberra so far this season, but they’ve been mediocre defensively and their ability to put points on the board didn’t look all that great the last time out. Keep it simple and back Raiders to take care of business in this Round 4 clash!

Telstra Premiership 2020 Round 4 Matches

 
2020 NRL Odds & Picks – Telstra Premiership Rabbitohs vs Storm Round 4
 

Previous Betting News

The Melbourne Storm will be looking to take care of business when they host the visiting South Sydney Rabbitohs in their Round 4 NRL matchup on Friday night. With both teams looking to bounce back from humbling losses the last time out, let’s find out which team is offering the best value against their NRL betting odds.

NRL Rabbitohs vs Storm Round 4 

Why Bet On The Storm

Melbourne won their first two games of the season by beating the Eagles and Sharks in rounds 1 and 2, but the Storm never challenged in their 22-6 round 3 loss against the Canberra Raiders on Saturday. Melbourne got one try from Dale Finucane and a conversion from Cameron Smith in the loss, but it wasn’t enough to overcome four tries by the Raiders and three conversions.

Melbourne has scored and allowed an identical 36 points, but they’ve lost their only home contest this season. Storm coach Craig Bellamy was upset with his team’s effort following the loss.

“I was a little bit embarrassed by that performance,” Bellamy said. “We were a long way away from doing the things that we practiced to do. We certainly need a little mentality adjustment.”

Why Bet On The Rabbitohs

South Sydney lost their second straight in losing to longtime rivals, Sydney, 28-12 on Friday. Cameron Murray and Thomas Burgess had tries in the loss while Adam Reynolds went 2-for-2 on conversions. Still, it wasn’t enough as Sydney ripped off five tries and converted four of five times in the impressive win for the two-time defending champions. The Rabbitohs have scored 52 points through three matches while allowing 68 (-16).

Expert Analysis and Prediction

While both of these teams are coming off humbling loss this past week, Melbourne has been solid at both ends of the pitch while South Sydney has been mediocre at best defensively in allowing 16 more points this season than they’ve scored. Yes, the Rabbitohs have put 16 more points on the board than Melbourne, but they’ve also allowed 32 more points than the Storm. With South Sydney going 0-2 on the road so far this season and Melbourne failing to win their only home date, I say,back the Storm to win what looks like a hard-fought affair just waiting to happen!

Pick: Storm 22 Rabbitohs 18

Telstra Premiership 2020 Round 4 Matches

 
2020 NRL Odds & Picks – Telstra Premiership Sharks vs Cowboys Round 4
 

Previous Betting News

The North Queensland Cowboys will look to avoid the big upset when they host the winless Cronulla-Sutherland Sharks in their Round 4 National Rugby League matchup on Saturday. With the Sharks completely desperate and the Cowboys looking to build on their win the last time out, let’s find out which team is offering the best value against their NRL betting odds in this Sharks vs Cowboys affair.

Cowboys Look To Avoid Upset Against Winless Sharks

Why Bet On The Cowboys at -188

The Cowboys are sitting in fifth place in the NRL standings with 81 points scored and 50 allowed (+31) following their convincing 36-6 Round 3 beat-down win over the Titans on Friday. Reece Robinson scored a pair of tries while four other Cowboys added single tries in the win and winger Valentine Holmes went 5-for-6 on conversions. North Queensland controlled the ball 66 percent of the time while recording a phenomenal 85 percent completion rate and winning the meters run battle 2,9044 to 1,281. Second-rower Gavin Cooper is questionable after missing the last round with a calf strain. Michael Morgan (shoulder) is still a few weeks away from being available.

Why Bet On The Sharks at +152

The Sharks are in 13th place in the NRL standings, having scored 44 points while allowing 62 points defensively (-18).  After dropping their first two games by four points or less, Cronulla was on the wrong end of a hard-fought 28-16 loss against the Wests Tigers in Round 3 on Saturday. Josh Duggan scored on a pair of tries and Williams Kennedy added another while Shaun Johnson went 2-for-3 on conversions. Still, it wasn’t enough as the Sharks gave up five tries and a pair of conversions in the loss. Cronulla-Sutherland lost the possession battle 51-49 percent while falling in the meters run department 1,654 to 1,495. Halfback Chad Townsend is questionable after suffering a low-grade hamstring strain. Matt Moylan or Connor Tracey will likely replace him in the halves. Andrew Fifita is also in doubt due to a lingering knee problem.

Expert Analysis and Prediction

While the Sharks have been pretty solid defensively and have challenged for the win in all thee games this season, Cronulla has also struggled to score more often than not and that just doesn’t bode well as they get set to face a Cowboys squad that is second in scoring with an impressive 81 points. After losing once at home already this season, North Queensland won’t fall again to an inferior Sharks team.

Pick: Cowboys 28 Sharks 18

General Game Info Cronulla-Sutherland Sharks (0-0-3) vs. North Queensland Cowboys (2-0-1) Cronulla-Sutherland Sharks (0-0-3)
