Try Scorer Value Tips

Tino Faasuamaleaui FTS & LTS @ $51 on Nedstitans v bulldogs round 9 left v rightTino scores a try every 4.67 games and scores last every 14 games. Yes it’s against the Dogs, but we love $51 for him today.

Storm unlikely to get beaten by 13+ here, so effectively getting 1.90 odds for Raiders +12.5 (actual line is 5.5/6.5).

Try Scorer Value Tips

Nathan Cleary FTS & LTS @ $34 on Bet365

panthers v broncos round 9 left v right

Cleary scores a try every 3.73 games and has scored one in every 10 games. Love the $34 for him. The Panthers are last on the table and he’ll want to step up on the big stage. Don’t need to go too far back to remember a magical Cleary last minute try against the Broncos do we?

Storm v Raiders

Sun 4/5, 6.25pm

Try Scorer Value Tips

Stefano Utoikamanu FTS @ $67 on Neds

Owen Pattie LTS @ $67 on Bet365

storm v raiders round 9 left v right

As much as we love Stefano (scores a try one in every 7 games, LTS one in every 28), Pattie might actually be better value! Fair price probably closer to mid 40s for Stefano and around $40 for Pattie considering he’s been coming on to finish games and is a strong ball runner. Has been bloody close to getting the last try a couple of times already this season!

Tip from Actuary Data Picks

  • Either team 1-12 on Bet365 @ 1.90

Storm unlikely to get beaten by 13+ here, so effectively getting 1.90 odds for Raiders +12.5 (actual line is 5.5/6.5).

Raiders have been surprisingly good this season. Very strong across the park with a solid forward pack, above average halfback, and some decent weapons in the backline.

Lean towards Storm pulling off the win here but Raiders will give them a good test.

Sharks v Eels

Fri 2/5, 6pm

Try Scorer Value Tips

Oregon Kaufusi FTS & LTS @ $81 on Bet365sharks v eels round 9 left v right

Crashed over first only a couple of weeks ago. Fair price closer to $51, love the $81s on 365!

Sharks middles have scored a lot of tries since last season + Eels have an inexperienced pack too.

Roosters v Dolphins

Fri 2/5, 8.05pm

Try Scorer Value Tips

Mark Nicholls FTS & LTS @ $67 on Bet365

roosters v dolphins round 9 left v right

Great try scoring stats in the last couple of years – think his fair price should be closer to $41-51.

Rabbitohs v Knights

Sat 3/5, 3pm

Try Scorer Value Tips

Tallis Duncan fts & lts @ $51 on bet365

rabbitohs v knights round 9 left v right

He’s $26-34 on other bookies, love the price. $51 for an edge back rower is also juicy. The rabbitohs are missing a few of their stars but the Knights have been in form too, playing the price moreso than the player here!

Warriors v Cowboys

Sat 3/5, 5.30pm

Try Scorer Value Tips

Leka Halasima fts @ $34 on Dabblewarriors v cowboys round 9 left v right

Halasima has been in excellent try scoring form which has led to a starting gig in recent weeks. Mispriced on Dabble.

Wests Tigers v Dragons

Sat 3/5, 7.45pm

Try Scorer Value Tips

Fonua Pole fts & lts @ $67 on Bet365

wests tigers v dragons round 9 left v right

We love Pole, he’s been in great try scoring form since last season. Up against a weak Dragons pack, we think he should be priced closer to $51. Love the $67s on 365.
