Preview:
The Cowboys, who have now won three straight games, are on the verge of a top-eight berth following last week’s narrow 6-4 win over the Titans on the Gold Coast.
As for Manly, the Sea Eagles still find themselves sitting seventh on the ladder as Des Hasler’s side hopes to improve on the uninspiring first-half effort that cost them against the Panthers last week.
The Cowboys walked away with a 26-12 victory at Brookvale when these two sides met last year. North Queensland will enjoy home-field advantage this week, although the Cowboys have hardly come good at home playing to a 3-3 record.
Not surprisingly, the Cowboys have been installed as the favourite this week. North Queensland are a perfect 5-0 in this scenario over the last 12 months, while their 5-2 record as the home favourite against Manly also stands out.
Even so, there is something to be said about these sides during Origin week. Given the three-day break, the likes of Michael Morgan and Daly Cherry-Evans could play, setting up what could be a very close game.
Manly are 5-9 on the back of a loss over the last 12 months, so it’s tough to trust the Sea Eagles at this price. Fortunately, Hasler’s team holds a strong 3-1 record as the line underdog in away games against the Cowboys, leaving Manly at nice odds to Cover.
