Dolphins v Storm
Friday 2 May · 6:00pm AEST · Kayo Stadium
⭐ Our Tip: Storm −4.5
Analysis
Melbourne's attack is clicking — Ryan Papenhuyzen at his best, and their edge defence has conceded the fewest points in the competition. Dolphins are improved but not yet ready for Melbourne at home.
Key Stats
Storm: 6W–2L · avg +12 point margin
Dolphins: 4W–4L · inconsistent defence
H2H: Storm won last 3 meetings
Suggested Bets
Storm −4.5 line Bet at NextBet →
Ryan Papenhuyzen anytime try scorer Bet at BetReal →

Roosters v Broncos
Saturday 3 May · 7:35pm AEST · Allianz Stadium
🔥 Match of Round · Tip: Roosters −4.5
Analysis
The standout game of the round. Roosters at Allianz are a different animal — their home crowd and short ball game suit them perfectly. Broncos have the cattle but their left edge has been exposed in recent weeks.
Key Stats
Roosters: 5W–1L at Allianz in 2026
Broncos: 5W–3L · right edge strong
H2H: Roosters won 4 of last 5 at home
Suggested Bets
Roosters −4.5 line Bet at TradieBET →

Panthers v Manly
Saturday 3 May · 5:30pm AEST · BlueBet Stadium
⭐ Our Tip: Panthers −10.5
Analysis
Panthers returning to form after a mid-season blip. Manly missing key forwards and their attack has stalled — only 8 points in their last two games. Penrith at home should win comfortably.
Key Stats
Panthers: 6W–2L · avg +16 margin at home
Manly: 3W–5L · missing 2 Origin forwards
H2H: Panthers won 6 of last 7
Suggested Bets
Panthers −10.5 line Bet at NextBet →
Panthers to win by 13+ Bet at TradieBET →

Raiders v Warriors
Saturday 3 May · 3:00pm AEST · GIO Stadium
⭐ Our Tip: Raiders −3.5
Analysis
Raiders are a strong outfit at GIO and the Warriors' travel from New Zealand adds fatigue. Canberra's forward pack should dominate and their halves are in their best form of the season.
Key Stats
Raiders: 5W–3L · strong home record
Warriors: 4W–4L · 3 losses after travel
H2H: Even — 3 wins each last 6
Suggested Bets
Raiders −3.5 line Bet at BetReal →
Under 42.5 total points Bet at NextBet →

Eels v Knights
Sunday 4 May · 2:00pm AEST · CommBank Stadium
⭐ Our Tip: Eels +1.5
Analysis
Tight game — both sides inconsistent this year. Eels at home have shown fight and the Knights are injury-affected. Value on the Eels at these short odds given their home record.
Key Stats
Eels: 3W–5L · better at home (3W–1L)
Knights: 4W–4L · missing 3 backs
H2H: Eels won 3 of last 5 at home
Suggested Bets
Eels to win (value pick) Bet at TradieBET →
Under 38.5 total points Bet at BetReal →

Rabbitohs v Tigers
Sunday 4 May · 4:05pm AEST · Accor Stadium
⭐ Our Tip: Rabbitohs −8.5
Analysis
Tigers' rebuild continues — they have heart but lack the roster depth for finals contenders. Souths at home with a full squad should win by double digits without too much trouble.
Key Stats
Souths: 5W–3L · clinical in attack
Tigers: 2W–6L · worst attack in competition
H2H: Souths won 6 of last 7
Suggested Bets
Rabbitohs −8.5 line Bet at NextBet →
Souths to win both halves Bet at TradieBET →

Sharks v Dragons
Sunday 4 May · 6:30pm AEST · PointsBet Stadium
⭐ Our Tip: Sharks −6.5
Analysis
The Shire Derby. Sharks have hit their stride mid-season and their defence is among the best in the competition. Dragons are still finding their system under new coaching staff.
Key Stats
Sharks: 5W–3L · 3rd best defence
Dragons: 3W–5L · coaching transition
H2H: Sharks won 5 of last 7
Suggested Bets
Sharks −6.5 line Bet at NextBet →
Under 40.5 total points Bet at BetReal →
