Although not named in the 17 rahihi might be included later in the week.

MAV,i heard on t.v that FITZGIBBON and MINICHELLO will miss 1 week, so i would be wary of taking a big margin this week and i think the bulldogs SHOULD be a better bet to win big.

Roosters under the odds against the warriors and are no value @ $1.20, so roosters try @ $1.72 is a better bet as the warriors have been slow starters most of the year and their last 3 games they have taken 20 minutes to score.

You think Rahihi makes 20 points difference???
