It’s the penultimate round and so many discussion points.
Footy Tipper
Weekly Jackpot
The Weekly Jackpot must be won this week. If there is no legitimate winner, a Tipster will be randomly drawn by the order number your tip came in.
Pablo will reiterate, and at $140 you do not want to miss out.
Main Competition & Second Competition
For those in or near the prize pools this is your last chance to make a move.
Risk v reward.
The NRL
Home finals have already been decided but who will end up Minor Premiers and which team(s) will miss out.
This could also be a tricky week for Tipsters.
The Broncos open the round knowing if they beat their nemesis Storm, they will win the J.J. Giltinan Shield and are Minor Premiers for the first time since 2002.
Otherwise, we will need to wait until Saturday when the Panthers take on the Cowboys at Penrith. A win here will see the Panthers reclaim top spot.
To complicate matters, should the Broncos win, the Panthers may well put their stars in cotton wool since they would finish 2nd regardless. This will give the Cowboys an opportunity to make the Top 8.
This brings us to the final game of the season. By that time the Raiders will know if they must beat the Sharks or see their season end. The Raiders are the biggest frauds in the Top 8. With a negative points differential of -119, they should be sitting in 12th place.
The other big game is of course Rabbitohs v Roosters. It’s winner take all.
Good luck with you final week of tipping and to the last 10 teams standing.
