Featured Tip from Mike Wilson

Pick Details

Sport / league:: NRL
Event / fixture:: Warriors vs. Sea Eagles
Event date: Sun, 27 Jul 2014 at 2:00 PM
Market:: Head-to-head
Tip:: Warriors @ 2.00 (Ladbrokes)
Tip Result:: Loss

The Sea Eagles have dominated a lot of the media this week with stories regarding the alleged disharmony amongst the players.
I for one don’t think it will be a distraction to the players simply because it’s an issue that has clearly been going on for a year or more. If the player’s emotions on the issue were to affect the way they play then the team’s results would have suffered long ago.
Although I don’t think it will prove to be a distraction, I do think Manly will be up against it regardless this week as they travel to New Zealand, and Mt Smart Stadium in particular where the Warriors are proving to be a real force.
The Warriors certainly played themselves out of a win last week against the Broncos with silly errors costing them dearly. But having only lost three games since round 7, the Warriors are still one of the form teams of the competition and the bounce back factor will likely come into effect this week as no doubt Coach Andrew McFadden would have had his troops practicing basic ball handling skills this week.
David Fusitu’a had a shocker and has been dropped for Ngani Laumape who will return from suspension this week to take over the right wing position.
The Warriors opened in betting as slight outsiders and a bit of money came in their direction although it has been a pretty weak betting affair.
We will be taking the Warriors and this match represents a perfect opportunity to take advantage of Ladbrokes’ $2.00 lines which become available in the hour prior to kickoff.

Mike’s Tip: Warriors
Mike’s Best Bet: Warriors +1.5 @ $2.00 (Ladbrokes one hour prior to the 2pm AEST kickoff)
