I like the Souths (But dont think Broncs will play as bad as they did against Tigers). Also like Manly and Dogs line also.

Cowboys should win that. Eels are awful. Gotta check the record h2h and venue stats though....

Souths were -2.5 opening at BET365 and already at -3.5, i see that line reaching 6 by game time friday night. 

Public will hammer souths and i think even this early out Broncos have the value at home.

Radiers line should move some more and will be liking that line a lot as well. Yes they got pumpd by cowboys but just like the warriors the Storm always battle with the raiders style of footy

I think souths are the bet of the year, They are so far superior..Brisbane attack is one dimensional i just can't see them troubling souths. I know brisbane will win the penalty count but can't see that being enough. The only thing that stopped me going really large is the chance souths might have a let down after such a physical encounter last week

Yea that is a possible ocurance in this clash and the Broncos did have a poor game last week, now back at home on there normal friday night i expect big things from them. 

Also keep in mind that the Broncos played a lot better against the storm than the bunnies did and both of those games were played in recent time

I am not sure about Souths. They have had 2 weeks in a row of high intensity / emotional games......Melbourne and Manly. Last week was a real bruiser. There ball control in these last games, especially in the first half has been nothing short of superb. They had only 1 dropped ball in the first half against the Storm and last week was similar.

Will they be up for it again? Broncs are good on Friday night at home and they are at full strength .

Apart from that, nothing else really stands out this weekend. The lines look about right.

The score line in the brisbane/storm match is a myth, refs did everything they could to get brisbane back in that game. Fatigue is my only concern.

Souths spine: Inglis, Sutton, Reynolds, Luke

Brisbane: Norman, Prince, Wallace, McCullough

line is just wrong

Yes, but you are making the assumption that Souths are going to play with the same enthusiasm, motivation and discipline for 3 weeks in a row...

They have had 2 GF type games in 2 weeks.....

Let down is coming...

Rostos this is true but thats not an unfair assumption. Maguire is melbourne created and souths have played every game this year with a melbourne like intensity. Sure they may have a let down but im more than happy to bet they wont

Well that is a lie, what about that 2nd half with the panthers?? that was just horrible and weak. 

Also remember they played the Chooks when they had not had the time together to gel. 

I am of the thinking of Rostos on this one, Broncos coming off an easy game that they were not really there for, perhaps looking ahead to this week. 

Bunnies off back to back rippers in which they threw it all out there, remember these people are only human and not the gods some make them out to be.

Im not saying Broncos win but for me they have the higher percentage even getting the points and thats were the logical play lies.

What does them playing the chooks at not full strength have to do with playing at a high intensity? 

The other thing to remember is it went Storm Bye Manly

But will see what happens on friday night

Interesting debate..Broncos will show up for their supporters and will be a very different side to last week. Can the red hot bunnies go all out for 3 weeks? If they do, they win. If they drop in intensity at all, they're stew. The whole thing screams "Keep away". Fence sitting in anticipation.

Ok well that changes things a lot, when was the last time Hodges played like 3 games in a row

Now the Bunnies are well in the drivers seat as the line would suggest, i would guess that tomorrow could get it at 8s
