NRL Round 10 Footy Tips
Dolphins vs Sea Eagles
Thursday, May 9, 2024
7:50 PM @ Suncorp Stadium, Brisbane
This Thursday night at Suncorp Stadium, the Dolphins lock horns with the Sea Eagles in a fiery NRL matchup. Both teams have their eyes firmly set on victory in a battle as close as a game of two-up (for those of you who can remember).
Head-to-Head Stats:
- The Dolphins and Sea Eagles have only faced off once before, with Manly coming out on top in a 58-18 demolition.
- Both sides are neck-and-neck in scoring averages this season, with the Dolphins putting up 26.5 points per game and the Sea Eagles 26.3.
Despite similar offensives, the Dolphins hold a slightly tighter defence, conceding 20.1 points on average compared to Manly’s 22.2. Given that and their home-field advantage at Suncorp, the Dolphins are slight favourites to edge out the Sea Eagles in what promises to be a ripper of a contest.
We’re expecting a super tight game with the Dolphins just scraping through 24-23.

Panthers vs Bulldogs
Friday, May 10, 2024
6:00 PM @ Bluebet Stadium, Penrith
This Friday night at BlueBet Stadium, the Panthers host the Bulldogs in a match that promises to be more electrifying than a lightning bolt in a storm. Both teams have shown glimpses of brilliance this season but are keen to notch another crucial win (Canterbury needs it much more than the Panthers).
Head-to-Head Stats:
- The Panthers have dominated recent meetings, winning five in a row, including a 44-18 drubbing in their last encounter.
- The Panthers are averaging 23.8 points per game while conceding just 15.5, whereas the Bulldogs score 20.5 and concede 17.4.
- With Penrith’s 78% completion rate and an 87.1% tackle efficiency, their defence looks rock-solid.
With Penrith’s superior form, high-scoring attack, and a watertight defence, the Bulldogs will need something special to break through. The Panthers should maintain their winning streak and keep the Bulldogs at bay, given their proven ability to finish strong.
Panthers are favoured to get over the line convincingly 30-18.
Betting Tip: Penrith Panthers

Eels vs Broncos
Friday, May 10, 2024
8:00 PM @ Commbank Stadium, Sydney
This Friday night at CommBank Stadium, the Eels host the Broncos in a highly anticipated NRL clash. With both teams vying for crucial points, the tension will be as thick as the fog rolling over the Parramatta River.
Head-to-Head Stats:
- The Broncos have dominated the last two meetings, winning both with convincing scores of 54-10 and 26-16.
- The Broncos average 26 points per game while conceding just 21.3, compared to the Eels’ 19.6 points scored and 26.5 conceded.
- The Eels have a lower winning percentage (38%) this season than the Broncos (56%).
Given their dominant head-to-head form and solid defensive structure, the Broncos are primed to edge out the Eels again. Expect Brisbane to lead from the front, using their high completion rates and strong playmaking ability to outpace Parramatta, who’ll need to be at their best to stop the Broncos’ rampage.
The Broncos should comfortably keep in front the entire game 26-20.

Wests Tigers vs Knights
Saturday, May 11, 2024
3:00 PM @ Scully Park, Tamworth
This Saturday afternoon at Scully Park, the Wests Tigers face off against the Knights in a showdown that promises more grit than sandpaper. The Tigers are desperate to break their losing streak, while the Knights are on a two-game winning streak and ready to stand guard and keep rolling.
Head-to-Head Stats:
- The Knights have won the last five encounters, including a 34-18 rout and a 14-12 nail-biter.
- The Tigers are scoring an average of 14.9 points while conceding 22.8 per match, whereas the Knights average 16.9 scored and 19 conceded.
- Both teams have similar completion rates, but the Knights boast better defensive stats with an 89.4% tackle efficiency compared to the Tigers’ 87.4%.
The Knights are clear favourites to continue their dominance over the Tigers, using their higher scoring average and stronger defensive play to subdue the Tigers, who are struggling to hold halftime leads. With a choke rate of 50% when leading at the half, the Tigers need to bring their A-game. The Knights look set to run over the line and secure another win Knights 20-17.

Dragons vs Rabbitohs
Saturday, May 11, 2024
5:30 PM @ Netstrata Jubilee Stadium, Sydney
This Saturday night at Netstrata Jubilee Stadium, the Dragons are set to breathe fire against the Rabbitohs in what promises to be a heated battle, as both sides aim to escape the bottom rungs of the ladder.
Head-to-Head Stats:
- The Dragons and Rabbitohs have had mixed results in their recent encounters. Last year, the Dragons secured a 36-30 victory in June, showcasing their ability to put up big points.
- However, in their previous meeting, the Rabbitohs turned the tables, winning 26-14, proving they can counter the Dragons’ attack.
Given their current form and the historical competitiveness of their matchups, the Dragons, slightly favoured by bookmakers, appear to have the edge, particularly with their ability to score under pressure. The Rabbitohs, while capable of upsets, will need to tighten their defence to fend off the Dragons’ fiery offence.
With both teams desperate for a win to boost morale and climb the ladder, expect a clash filled with high intensity, strategic plays, and perhaps a bit of the unexpected. It’s a battle for redemption with the Dragons slightly tipped to come out on top, ready to turn their fortunes around in front of a home crowd.
Dragons should have the gumption to flap their wings and send the Roosters into a flurry winning 26 – 22.

Storm vs Sharks
Saturday, May 11, 2024
7:35 PM @ AAMI Park, Melbourne
This Saturday night at AAMI Park, the Storm are set to host the Sharks in a battle of the heavyweights. With both teams boasting a perfect 7-1 record this season, expect a nail-biter that will keep you on the edge of your seat.
Head-to-Head Stats:
- The Storm have dominated recent encounters, winning 4 of their last five games against the Sharks.
- Last season, the Sharks triumphed at PointsBet Stadium but were soundly defeated at AAMI Park.
- The Storm’s high-scoring offence averages 24.3 points per game, while the Sharks lead the league with 27.4.
While both teams have been in red-hot form with five-game winning streaks, the Storm have home advantage and a looser defence, conceding 17.3 points on average compared to the Sharks’ 13.8. This is shaping up to be a super tight game where every play will count.
The Storm, with their strong record at home, are looking to edge out the Sharks and keep their streak alive, locking in a 22-19 win.
Betting Tip: Melbourne Storm

Roosters vs Warriors
Sunday, May 12, 2024
2:00 PM @ Allianz Stadium, Sydney
This Sunday arvo at Allianz Stadium, the Roosters and Warriors square off in a Round 10 NRL game, with the Warriors fighting to get a much needed win.
Head-to-Head Stats:
- Last year, the Roosters won both encounters, a 20-12 victory at home and a 14-0 shutout away.
- The Roosters have averaged 28.7 points per game this season while conceding only 18.1, compared to the Warriors’ 19.6 points scored and 18.3 conceded.
With a more consistent attack and solid defence, the Roosters should edge out the Warriors, especially given their recent form with a two-match win streak and stellar offensive firepower. The Warriors, currently on a three-game skid, will need to tighten up and find scoring opportunities to pose any serious challenge to the Roosters at Allianz; we’re expecting a Roosters win 24-19.

Titans vs Cowboys
Sunday, May 12, 2024
4:05 PM @ Cbus Super Stadium, Gold Coast
This Sunday afternoon at Cbus Super Stadium, the Titans are set to take on the Cowboys in a match that promises to be as intense as a grand final. Both teams are eager to turn their seasons around, with the Titans sitting at the bottom of the ladder and the Cowboys looking to bolster their chances.
Head-to-Head Stats:
- The Cowboys have won 20 of their 32 encounters with the Titans, including a 35-22 victory in their most recent meeting.
- Historically, the Cowboys have a stronger scoring ability, averaging 25.4 points per game against the Titans’ 17.1.
Given the Cowboys’ higher average points scored and recent form against the Titans, they should edge out the home side despite conceding an average of 27.2 points per match. Their offensive firepower and dominant head-to-head record should ensure a comfortable win, though the Titans will aim to keep it competitive on their home turf. We’re expecting the Cowboys to take home the win 27-22.
