NRL YTD 108-95-1 +7.70 units

Only a short card this week and the last weekend of mass byes which i am happy about. Going to have some plays but not to sure on some of the lines this week.

Friday Night Football Stats:

Favs Su: 21-8

Favs ATS: 16-12

Totals: 14-14

Picks:

Sharks +4.0 1 unit @ $1.90

They should have the goods this week to keep it close with the weakend nature on the Broncos. The Sharks have had the weekend off so they should be ready to play without there stars this week. The Sharks are 9-5 Su and 10-4-0 ATS for the season and have been a good strong team even missing there origin players. The Broncos are 10-5-0 Su and ATS for the season and have been another one of the form teams in the comp. However i do expect them to struggle this week.

You take out Gallen and Tattoo man and you have a very weak team. The Baby broncos are very talented.

Sharks are 1-1 (22-12 win over the Titans, R14 - 26-6 loss to the high flying Dogs, R11) this season without Carney and Gallen and 2-0 without only Gallen (wins over the Storm and Warriors). Think calling them 'very weak' is a little harsh. Gallen absence very overrated. Would agree though that no Carney is significant.

'Baby' Broncos did thrash the Chooks (without Mitchell Pearce) in R14 by 40-22 but the comparison between the Roosters and Sharks this year is huge.

That being said I have a tiny lean to the Doncs (subject to change) based more-so on the fact they get the 'calls' on Friday nights up at Suncorp than they're the more 'talented' team. Under tonight's 'main' ref Jason Robinson the Broncs are 12-4-1 (last 17 games) whereas the Sharks are 3-14 (last 17)...

Some good stats there man. Yea Refs is always a worry and Broncos being a big market team, however just feel the Sharks come to play on FNF in which they dont get a of games. The Bye is huge factor here in my mind as well. They will have had 2 weeks to get ready to play with out their 2 Origin super stars and should know what to do really.

Have to take into account that the Sharks have been shithouse the past 5 or so years, this season they're looking pretty good.

They are though, 2-3 SU the last 5 games with Robinson reffing with the most recent game being a 44-22 pasting of the Raiders in Round 8.

But I think we all witnessed last Friday night's game in Brisbane where the game was played in the Broncos' opponents half and the favorable 'calls' received by the Doncs...

Yea i am a fan of the Broncos and they do get calls go there way, but nothing like the bloody STORM down in AAMI stadium. But they do have a lot of 50-50 calls go there way, kind of the oppisiite of the Chooks who may well never win a penalty count again this year.

My bad the most recent game with Robinson was in Round 14 versus the Titans (a 22-12 win without Gallen and Carney) at Toyota Park. So 2 of those 3 wins have come this year...

Adding 2 more plays for tonight,

Picks:

Sharks +4.0 2 units @ $1.90

Sharks Su 1 unit @ $2.50

Sharks/Broncos under 38.0 1 unit @ $1.90

Really like the under tonight. Both of these teams play really good D and think that will be the case tonight. They are both also missing some of their better attacking weapons which would also lead to the under being the right play here. The Broncos are 7-8 on totals for the season and the Sharks are 4-10 on totals so safe to say we could see a really low scoring game.
