Pick Details

Sport / league:: NRL
Event / fixture:: Sea Eagles vs. Storm
Event date: Sat, 31 Aug 2013 at 7:35 PM
Market:: Line/Handicap
Tip:: Storm -1.5 @ 1.75 (Centrebet)
Tip Result:: Loss

It’s always a classic encounter when these two sides go face to face, particularly for some reason when they play at Brookvale Oval.
Both the Storm and Sea Eagles, who sit in 3rd and 4th on the ladder respectively, are in solid form and clearly outplaying the 12 teams below them. But which team out of the two have the players that are performing better? If I was asked to pick now, I would go with the Storm. So when I look at this week’s line ups and see the Sea Eagles without Anthony Watmough and Jorge Taufua, I can’t go past the Storm. Sure the Sea Eagles have a big advantage playing at home but I think they will be slowly ground out of the game by the Storm’s superior depth amongst the interchange players.
