Featured Tip from Mike Wilson

Pick Details

Sport / league:: NRL
Event / fixture:: Newcastle Knights vs. Gold Coast Titans
Event date: Sun, 30 Jun 2013 at 2:00 PM
Market:: Line/Handicap
Tip:: Titans +6.5 @ 1.76 (Centrebet)
Tip Result:: Loss

An interesting game looms here as the Titans head to Hunter Stadium as outsiders ($2.55) to the Knights ($1.53). I sat down over the weekend to try and determine which teams will finish in the top 8 and whilst I came up unsure about the Titans at this stage, I did not have Newcastle there.
The Titans have done plenty to impress me in the last 5 weeks including some demonstrations of crisp backline movements conducive to points. The only hiccup was against the Storm last week when I firmly believe the Titans took their opposition far too lightly and attempted to win the match with low percentage plays, ultimately failing to pull the fancy moves off. They still managed to win however and I’m certain Coach John Cartwright will have his Titans nailing down the basics at training this week in preparation for their tilt at victory on enemy soil. I tip they’ll succeed.
