Raiders v Dolphins
Sun 27/4, 2pm
Try Scorer Value Tips
Mark Nicholls FTS & LTS @ $67 on Bet365
Was really hard to separate Nicholls and Daniel Saifiti here. Since 2022, Nicholls has scored a try every 8.5 games. Daniel every 9 games. For Nicholls, that number changes to every 7 games since 2023 in his last 50 games. Love the $67 about him to score first or last (separate plays).
Wests Tigers v Sharks

Fonua Pole & Oregon Kaufusi FTS & LTS @ $81 on Bet365
These prices are actually a joke. Pole’s been a great try scorer the last couple of seasons. Oregon would have most likely been my pick last weekend (he crashed over FTS @ $81!) but I missed tipping that game. Hopefully one of these two get up for us this weekend!
Same game multi on Sportsbet @ 1.80
- Sharks to win
- Tigers alternative total tries – over 1.5
- Alternative total match points – under 70.5
Sharks’ form has been pretty scratchy this season and they still haven’t yet played their best footy. Meanwhile, Tigers’ season looking like a rabble at the moment with the Galvin mess.
Tigers have scored 2+ tries in 6/7 games this season and Sharks have conceded 2+ tries in 7/7 games – including 3 tries to Knights last week, who have the worst attack in the competition. Neither team has yet had a game with over 70.5 total points.
Broncos v Bulldogs
Thu 24/4, 7.50pm

Kobe Hetherington FTS & LTS @ $81 on Bet365
Meant to be greasy conditions in Brisbane, love Hetherington’s running style generally and $81 is generous. Would have probably taken around $67!
Roosters v Dragons

Sandon Smith FTS & LTS @ $34 on Bet365
BANG! This gets up.
Sharks’ form has been pretty scratchy this season and they still haven’t yet played their best footy. Meanwhile, Tigers’ season looking like a rabble at the moment with the Galvin mess.
Our model and most bookies have him around $20-25. $34 is clearly around 1.5x fair price. Scored 3 tries in 7 games this season, great play.
Warriors v Knights
Fri 25/4, 6.05pm
Try Scorer Value Tips
Tyson Frizell FT @ $67 on Neds, LTS @ $61 on Sportsbet
Edit 5.25 pm Fri 25/4, Adding Matt Croker FTS & LTS @ $81 on Bet365
Tyson Frizell has been an edge player for most of his career. He’s now moved to the middle but seeing $61-67 for him just seems off. The Warriors pack are still missing JFH too. Love Matt Croker here at $81 too but slight concern over him potentially being benched so we went with Frizell instead.
Edit – adding Croker FTS LTS 81s 365 as he’s now confirmed to start.
Storm v Rabbitohs
Fri 25/4, 8.10pm

Stefano Utoikamanua FTS & LTS @ $67 on Dabble
Not going to bother going into Stefano’s stats again. Scores a lot of tries for a middle. Great FTS and LTS strike rate. Storm 14 point favourites. I don’t know how we keep getting these prices for him!
Cowboys v Titans
Sat 26/4, 5.30pm
Try Scorer Value Tips
Tino Faasuamaleuai FTS & LTS @ $51 on Bet365
It was really hard to choose between RCG at $101 and Tino at $51 here. I’d be taking both but for the sake of trying to stick to one tip for most games, let’s go with Tino!
Scores a try every 4.62 NRL games. Close to the best middle forward NRL try scorer of all time. $51 doesn’t FEEL like value for a middle, but it is for big Tino.
Panthers v Sea Eagles
Sat 26/4, 7.35pm
Try Scorer Value Tips
Josh Aloiai ATS @ $34 on Bet365
Edit – 736 pm put it in our discord earlier but Leota FTS LTS 67s on 365! Manly missing 3-4 key middles.
He’s scored a try every 10 NRL games. It’s 2025, the Panthers aren’t invincible. Probably roughly 2x fair price. Clear value! If you don’t get on this as soon as the article comes out (Thurs evening), you can’t blame anyone for missing the price!
