Warriors looked like shit last weekend and were lucky to get anything from the game but they do still probably harbour some misguided thoughts of making the eight and they do always seem to make a run at the back end of the season, and on the back of a bit of confidence in their offense I see them showing up on Sunday. If its a cold and wintery afternoon in Auckland I don't see the Dragons throwing it about too much and it might end up a 16-12 type of game.
Knowing Soward loves to pot drop-goals I'd be keen to see it at 7, or maybe even think about buying a point to 7.5, but I think thr 6.5 available on NZ is pretty nice.

I saw them. We aren't looking at a Warriors team on the road this weekend. Warriors at home getting more than a converted try when in this game, unlike the one against Sydney, neither side may top 20 points. I suggest watching the Warriors shut out an in-form Newcastle Knights outfit 14-0 about 5-6 weeks ago to get an understanding of what they are like at home.

Right. Warriors at home are a totally different proposition, but I was talking about taking the MLs. I don't even know what the spread is.
Either way, I think there are better options out there. GL.

I think it's possible cause that can match up with STG, too a certain extent. I don't think they will, but would be a decent 1-12 STG take, but to me it's one of the avoid matches of the round.

Regarding the Warriors/Dragons game I do not see how you can go past the Dragons. Here's why.
1. The Warriors struggle to score points even at home and St. George boast the best defensive record in the league.
2. Nathan Fien was a mid season transfer from the Warriors to the
Dragons so he will be out for a big game. Wouldn't surprise me if he
barged over from dummy half for the first try scorer.
3. St. George are nearly back at full strength for the first time since
before the Origin period and they have all the confidence in the world.
To be honest, complacency is their worst enemy and they can really only
beat themselves.
4. Warriors don't even have a decent goal kicker in Stacey Jones and i
don't see them scoring too many up the middle for easy conversions.
Soward has been kicking well lately.
5. Dragons have too much pace for the Warriors. If the Warriors were
smart they would have watered the ground overnight. It should only
really be close if the weather makes it more of a level playing field
and I do not know what is going on in Auckland today.
6. The victory by the Warriors over the Knights a few weeks back at
13-0 should have been 33-0 with the amount of possession they had.
7. First meeting between these two at Win Stadium was a 12-11 win to
the Dragons. Since then the Dragons have improved vastly while the
Warriors have stayed the same or probably dropped off a little.
8. The loss of the Bulldogs last night means that a Dragons victory
would see them 4pts clear at the top of the table plus the net points
advantage (effectively 3 games), which should go a long way to making
sure they finish minor premiers. Will they let the opportunity slip? I
will be betting they won't.
Of course if everything went according to plan we would all be rich.
But the Dragons are they play here and 6.5 is not that many for them to
cover. Whether they cover or not remains to be seen but they are the
correct play today. Dragons 28-10 on a dry pitch.
As far as Raiders/Tigers go it is probably best left alone. The Tigers
seem a little better on paper, but the Raiders are a different football
team at home on a Sunday afternoon. It's a tossup.
Good luck to all today.
