Preview:
It’s hardly the most exciting game to end the Magic Round, but after last week’s Jordan Taumalolo inspired victory, the Cowboys can certainly make this one interesting.
You can’t call it an upset, but North Queensland finally got back to winning ways at home last week beating the Titans 28-14. Taumalolo was outstanding in all facets of the game, while Jordan Kahu also did a brilliant job nailing all six of his set shots.
Speaking of brilliance, the Rabbitohs looked just that last week at home to the Broncos. South Sydney wasted no time cracking the scoreboard, holding the Broncos to just one try in the 38-6 defeat.
We’re now left with what could be a thrilling ending to Round 9, and if it’s anything like last year’s 21-20 Souths win, this game should be a real treat.
The Bunnies enter as the -8.5 favourites, and with a 7-1 record in this scenario, it’s difficult to back against Wayne Bennett’s side. Still, Suncorp is often a ground that brings out the best from the Cowboys, so the Half-Time/Full-Time split looks a good play.
