The Sydney Roosters get back to the SCG and a dry Sunday afternoon and that signals bad news for the Warriors.
Best Bet
Sydney Roosters -14.5 ($1.90)
The Roosters’ recent domination of the Warriors should continue on Sunday with Trent Robinson’s men favoured by a big number but a number that is not nearly big enough.
The Roosters have won four straight against the Warriors with three of those coming by more than 20 points. In the last 11 matchups between the two teams, the Roosters have covered seven.
The key to betting this match though is the Roosters’ record at the SCG. They have covered 17 of 25 at the ground including 9 of 13 as a double digit favourite. The Roosters have covered seven of nine day games at the SCG.
The Warriors have covered just four of 15 as an underdog and are very poor when their defence goes south, covering just one of 10 off conceding 20-plus.
If the Roosters are anywhere near their best they will win this by plenty.
Same Game Multi
James Tedesco Try/Sitili Tupouniua Try ($5.75)

Value Bet
Joseph Manu 2+ Tries ($5.50)
Joey Manu has been in outstanding tryscoring form this year with five tries in five games including doubles each of the last two weeks. He has now scored 14 tries in his last 17 games.
