ATS - STORM -4 (x2) (Buying 1/2 point @ alternate lines)
Adding 2ND H - STORM -6.5 (x1)(Storm down by 4 @ half)
Melbourne have started 2011 with a bang! while they were a little rusty in their first game against Manly, they still managed to win by 12. Then last week they smashed the Titans by plenty! this game was over after 20. This task is a little tricky travelling up north and playing their first away game of the year against a Cowboys outfit that will be keen to bounce back after losing last week to the Knights. The bad news for Nth Queensland is this Storm outfit love playing up there! their record is 9-3 @ Dairy Farmers and have beaten the Cowboys in their last 8 matches by an average of 24pts! Melbourne own the Cowboys! the last time they have enjoyed success over the Storm was in 2006. That record is to hard to ignore.
Melbourne will be unchanged and don't have any real injury concerns while the Cowboys are without Winterstien, Tate and Bolton. Melbourne to have to much class all over the park and with the guidance and kicking game of Cooper Cronk and Cam Smith to give plenty of opportunities to Slater and the outside backs, the Storm will prove too good leading from start to finish! Storm by 22.

LOSS....... -4.6 units
ReplyDeleteBig loss! This was my bet of the round and the storm just didn't produce! Was sure they would come out better in second half but that only added to the pain.
