Ratings are hard to work out at Origin time, but here are my guestimates:

Melbourne 28 Penrith 26
Canberra 28 W.Tigers 18
Roosters 36 NQ Cowboys 16
NZ Warriors 22 Parramatta 20
Newcastle 28 Sharks 14
Brisbane 28 Souths 14
Manly 16 Bulldogs 30

Heard a whisper this morning that P CAMPBELL is in doubt for the game tonight against the storm. Also TAHU is doubtful for the knights as is PEACHY for the sharks, BUT the big news is KIMMORELY has trained well and could be a late inclusion even though he is not named in the 17.

With a lot of panther players out and the storms best 2 out,this is a hard game for me to pick, so a couple of value bets might be the go.
STORM TRY $2.10
S.BELL $3.25 H2H against p.whatiura

P. Campbell is playing

I had the panthers giving melbourne a decent game as well sports, wasn't quite as generous as you though, I had the game 26-20.

I also have:
Warriors winning. 1.85 is enough for me to take. Let's see if they are not able to cover the spread 4 games in a row.

Raiders by 9. So Tigers +12.5 for me.

Roosters by 6. Cowboys +14 thanks.

Newcastle by 9. Taking Knights -6.5.

Brisbane by 12. Souths covering with +14 is quite possible thanks to SOO. Haven't taken it yet though.

Bulldogs by 10. Dogs -8.5 isn't quite enough to take though.

YEAH he did play, didn't get the ball as much as he usually does, the new players had a big game and did a lot of damage, storm are almost unbeatable down there and AGAIN penrith lacked direction, girdler may be back next week, they had their 2 halves on the wings in defence ?, thats why i only had 2 small multi's, no damage done, same agin today and tomorrow, i'll be plunging next week as 2 of my 3 biggest weeks have been post origin.

Must just be the good players backing up after origin, lifting their teams as they can still be on a high, and before origin i dont go that well, i have more confidence in backing teams with those players in rather than 2nd graders.

I hope you mean NRL cause i dont bet on NFL,

BEST BET for $1.50

BRIS LIONS -37.5

B. Kimmorely has said this morning he is definately out of the sharks, phil bailey will play and peachy is in doubt, as for the knights T.Tahu is unlikely to play and R.O'davis is 50/50
