Preview:
The time has been and gone for Newcastle to show something. A putrid 1-5 start has them second last on the table and their season in jeopardy. Last week’s humiliating 38-14 loss to an injury hit Titans was easily their worst of the season. More runs didn’t translate into more points for the Knights, who coughed up 12 errors, with many of those ending up in Titans four pointers. They now run into a point scoring phenom in the Parramatta Eels, who racked up 51 points on the Tigers on Easter Monday. Parramatta looked sublime at their new stadium and are justified favourites for this one. Despite their futility in recent years, the Knights have won three on the trot against Parramatta, including a 30-4 drubbing in round 13 last season. The Wolf is not prepared to back the Knights again though, as their forwards aren’t doing enough and they simply don’t have the cattle in the halves to make enough of a mark. Parramatta should cruise home.
Tip: Parramatta Eels at $1.68
Value Tip: First Try Scorer: Maiko Sivo at $9.00
