Manly win by 13+ margin
Manly will be seething by their loss to the Rabbitohs last week and will look to take it out on a Tigers side that were comprehensively thumped by Parramatta last weekend. The problem with the Tiger sis their small pack that while nimble, they don't have the strength to hold off the larger packs like the one Manly has. Manly should steamroll over the top of them which sets it up for the likes of Stewart to dart through the holes in the defence.

Parramatta -21.5
Bulldogs are gone for the year and in their last 5 games they have lost by at least 30 points. Now they meet a Parramatta side that have won their last 2 as they look to continue their run for the top 8 spot. Parramatta should cover the spread if they are serious about being a semi final side

Newcastle win by 13+ margin
Newcastle were on a roll until they got blasted by the Raiders but at the moment, any team would have struggled to stop them in the current form they are in. Now the Knights are at home to continue their quest for the top 8 and face the bottom placed Cowboys who continue to have quite a few players out through injury. While they have been trying to compete, but you would expect the Knights to have alot more intensity in their plays and win this one comfortably.
