North Queensland Cowboys vs Newcastle Knights Odds
North Queensland Cowboys vs Newcastle Knights Preview
The Cowboys have won three in a row and get a good chance to extend that winning record when they take on the Knight on Saturday night.
The Knights have lost their last 6 games and haven’t crossed the try line in their last two games. It’s clearly a worrying sign for them.
Wouldn’t have thought I’d be seeing the Cowboys start as the $1.28 favourites in a game this season but here we are.
Backing the Cowboys to win but you’d be brave to take the short odds.
Betting Update:
All the money this week has been for the North Queensland Cowboys.
The Cowboys opened at $1.40 this week but have since been smashed into the short price of $1.17.
Newcastle are unwanted with Ladbrokes punters, they’re out to $5.00 after opening at $3.00.
Head To Head Bet
