Market:: Line/Handicap
Tip:: Sharks -5.5 @ 1.82 (Centrebet)
Tip Result:: Win

I haven’t mentioned the ‘bounce back factor’ for a while but this game seems to fit that category nicely. The Sharks were thrashed by the Roosters last week to the tune of 40-0 and now they return to their home ground, Remondis Stadium to try and regain themselves in preparation for the run to the finals. They welcome back halfback Jeff Robson, second rower Wade Graham and three-quarter Ben Pomeroy. Jeff Robson takes so much pressure off five eighth Todd Carney when the Sharks are in their opposition 20. This in turn makes the Sharks worth an extra 6 points in attack per game if you ask me. Wade Graham provides the captaincy in Paul Gallen’s absence and an extra force in the forwards.
The Panthers are coming off a comprehensive loss to the Knights which in my opinion really showed us where they are at in comparison to other top 8 teams.
Interestingly, the Panthers have played 8 games in the day this year and only won one of them which was back in Round 1 against a dismal Raiders side.
