BETTING BOX
FIXED ODDS
5.5pts North Queensland (-12) v Cronulla at 10/11 (general) Expect the Cowboys to pile on the points.
2pts Canterbury to beat Manly at 11/8 (Sky Bet) League leaders to edge out the Premiers.

Huddersfield v Wakefield (+6)

Wakefield snatched victory over Harlequins last week with a last-gasp try and touchline conversion.

This is a very interesting game and it will be fascinating to see how Danny Sculthorpe goes against his former club. He is trying to win a permament contract at the Giants and his offloads can damage any side.

Huddersfield had a really soft win at Salford last week and that will have taken nothing out of them. They could have more petrol in the tank than the Wildcats so I'll side with them - but it's a close call.

Bradford v Castleford (+10

Bradford scored over 20 points against Leeds last week and their performance was very good. In contrast Castleford were disappointing against the Dragons and they are paying for their inconsistency.

You'd expect the Bulls to win and cover and I'll chance them to do so. These are two teams who could deliver anything though.

NRL

Sea Eagles v Bulldogs (+4)

This is a clash between last year's Premiers and the team who currently top the league ladder.

This is going to be one hell of a game with the talent on display. Manly have won their last couple of games and are at home but I really like this Bulldogs team.

Brett Kimmorley has been outstanding at half-back for them, they are going from strength to strength, and I fancy them to win this with the start.
