Round 12 Preview and Tips

How hard is it to successfully pick five matches? With Origin stars missing, this is one tricky round.

Thursday Night Football

Raiders v Dolphins

Origin Stars Missing

  • Raiders – Hudson Young, Ethan Strange
  • Dolphins – Selwyn Cobbo, Hamiso Tabuai-Fidow, Thomas Flegler, Max Plath

The ‘Phins are missing the most Origin players of any team playing this weekend. Add to this the late withdrawal of Herbie Farnworth, I think the Raiders will be too strong for this one at home.

Friday Night Football

Bulldogs v Storm

Origin Stars Missing

  • Bulldogs – Stephen Crichton
  • Storm – Cameron Munster, Harry Grant, Trent Loiero

Both teams are without key players. The Bulldogs will be desperate to beat the Storm and are overdue for a win. The Storm have won their last two matches but are without their key spine players.

I think it’s time Bulldogs fans.

Super Saturday

Dragons v Warriors

Origin Stars Missing

  • Dragons – Nil
  • Warriors – Kurt Capewell, Mitchell Barnett

You could use similar logic to the Doggies v Storm game. No team can stay up all season, and this could be a danger game for the Warriors.

Wishful thinking fellow Dragons fans. Warriors to win again.

Sea Eagles v Titans

Origin Stars Missing

  • Sea Eagles – Tolutau Koula, Haumole Olakau’atu
  • Titans – Jojo Fifita, Tino Fa’asuamaleaui

I’m just going to say it. Manly will win this at their renewed fortress Brookie

Sunday Football

Cowboys v Rabbitohs

Origin Stars Missing

  • Cowboys – Reuben Cotter
  • Rabbitohs – Cameron Murray

The bunnies are also without Latrell Mitchell with injury. Even with the other Latrell in the team, I don’t think they can win this game up in Townsville.
