Round 19 is headed by Parramatta and Canberra going head to head on Thursday night.
The best bets for the rest of the round are below.
Parramatta vs. Canberra
July 22nd 7:50pm
Parramatta look to add stronger foundations to its top four position in the league when it clashes with Canberra on Thursday.
The Eels fought doggedly to hold off a plucky Gold Coast victory, while Canberra knocked off Cronulla with a 16-point triumph.
Frustratingly, for the Raiders, it seems a case of too little too late and the 35-10 loss it had against the Eels earlier this season won’t inspire much confidence.
Suggested Bets: Parramatta Eels -25.5 at $1.83
Sydney vs. Newcastle
July 23rd 6:00pm
Sydney continue its hunt for a double chance when it meets Newcastle team licking its wounds after being belted by Melbourne.
The Knights were simply no match for the Storm and would ultimately succumb to a 48-4 loss, while Sydney finished off like a shot out of a gun against North Queensland to keep intact with the Eels.
James Tedesco returns for the Roosters after captaining NSW in game three of State of Origin.
Suggested Bet: Sydney -11.5 at $1.90
North Queensland vs. Melbourne
23rd July 7:55pm
The Melbourne Storm winning train just keeps chugging along and it looks to continue on its merry way against North Queensland.
Craig Bellamy had led his squad to 14-straight wins and to the summit of the ladder with no signs of slowing down.
The scary fact is that they will get back Josh Addo-Carr and the message for the Cowboys is simple; good luck.
Suggested Bets: Melbourne Storm -26.5 at $1.90
South Sydney vs. New Zealand
July 11th 4:05pm
South Sydney duels with New Zealand in order to keep hot on the heels of the premiership favourites Melbourne and Penrith.
But it might not come as easy as as the odds suggest for the Rabbioths given the way it struggled against Canterbury last week.
The Souths still managed to win by eight poitns but will need to be at their best to beat a Warriors outfit who kept in touch with Penrith.
Four consecutive wins against the Warriors should turn into five with Latrell Mitchell set to return after origin duty.
Suggested Bet: South Sydney -17.5 at $1.90
Suggested Same Game Multi:
Leg 1: South Sydney head to head (SGM SPECIAL)
Leg 2: J. Mansour anytime tryscorer
Leg 3: J. Paulo anytime tryscorer
Leg 4: Total point scored under 52.5
Combined odds = $5.50
Manly vs. Wests Tigers
July 24th 5:30pm
Manly welcomes back its champion full back Tom Trbojevic from Origin duty as it looks to lock away its finals spot against Wests Tigers.
Even without ‘Turbo Tom’ the Sea Eagles pulled clear of St George last week to record a 14-point victory.
The Tigers, meanwhile, mustered up a 42-24 win over Brisbane to keeps it slim chance of finals alive.
Both teams have everything to play for but you cannot undervalue the class of Manly in this contest.
Suggested Bet: Manly -18.5 at $1.90
Suggested Same Game Multi:
Leg 1: Manly head to head (SGM SPECIAL)
Leg 2: Total points scored under 52.3
Leg 3: R. Garrick anytime tryscorer
Leg 4: J. Saab anytime tryscorer
Combined odds = $5
Penrith vs. Brisbane
July 24th 7:35pm
Penrith know it just needs to keep winning when it faces the second-last Brisbane Broncos.
The Panthers relinquished top spot to the Storm halfway through the season and sit in second spot equal on points with the premiership favourite but 108 points behind on the point differential chart.
For all the dominance Penrith has had in the last year-and-a-half, the Broncos troubled them last year and this year in the two most recent fixtures.
The line does look enormous in this contest.
Suggested Bet: Brisbane Broncos +19.5 at $1.90
Suggested Same Game Multi:
Leg 1: Penrith Panthers head to head
Leg 2: Total points scored over 51.5
Leg 3: B. To’o 2+ tries
Leg 4: C. Staines anytime tryscorer
Combined odds = $4.75
Canterbury vs. Cronulla
July 25th 4:05pm
The scenario is simple for Cronulla; win and you take another step towards a finals berth.
Canterbury will not make this come easily when it faces off against the Sharks after taking South Sydney all the way last week.
It might have been a loss, but the Bulldogs put in arguably their best performance of the year in the 32-24 loss against the Rabbitohs.
The 18-12 win back in Round 7 for the Bulldogs should have them cock-a-hoot for this game.
Suggested Bet: Canterbury head to head at $3.83
