NRL Round 6 Preview and Tips – Manly Sea Eagles v Penrith Panthers

The following are previews and betting tips for the NRL Round 6 fixture between the Manly Sea Eagles and the Penrith Panthers

Manly Sea Eagles v Penrith Panthers

Brookvale Oval, 7:00pm (local)

SEA EAGLES: Brett Stewart, Jorge Taufua, Jamie Lyon, Steve Matai, David Williams, Kieran Foran, Daly Cherry-Evans, Jason King, Matt Ballin, Brent Kite, Anthony Watmough, Jamie Buhrer, Daniel Harrison. Interchange (from): Nick Skinner, Vic Mauro, Darcy Lussick, Joe Galuvao, Dean Whare

PANTHERS: Lachlan Coote, Etu Uaisele, Michael Jennings, Brad Tighe, David Simmons, Travis Burns, Luke Walsh, Sam Mckendry, Kevin Kingston, Dayne Weston, Cameron Ciraldo, Clint Newton, Luke Lewis (c). Interchange (from): Danny Galea, Mitch Achurch, Blake Austin, Ryan Simpkins, Matt Robinson

IT’S THE FIRST VISIT OF THE YEAR to Manly’s home ground of Brookvale Oval which will be a relief for the Sea Eagles and their fans following 3 straight losses for the team. The Sea Eagles are struggling without strike forwards Glen Stewart and Tony Williams. Captain Jamie Lyon returns to the side after having a week out and this sees Manly’s odds for the match plummet into the $1.45 mark.

The Panthers, like Manly have only won two games this year but have shown some glimpses of quality footy. They fought back well last week against the Sharks only to go down by a point.

I’m tipping Manly based on their recent record against the Panthers which reads 3 wins from 4 matches but we may be in for a close match nonetheless.

Chance of winning: Manly 57%, Panthers 42%, Draw 1%

Mike’s Tip: Manly

Mike’s Best Bet: None

Starting Bank: $2000, Current Bank $1965.44

  1. No best bet this weekend Mike ?

    I’m expecting Eagles to bounce back tonight.. will be tight, but Manly should do enough in the end to win. Well, that’s what my weekends tipping is hoping for..

    Also congrats on the recent marriage.

    1. Thanks Goodsy! No best bets mate. The form line through the first 5 weeks of the comp has hardly been straight and i definitely needed a week to simply step away from the betting accounts and watch closely. I think I tipped 6 from 8 so I’m confident there will be some best bets this week!
