TAB are sticking by the lead in formlines for Round 14 of the NRL despite guessing games continuing over the make up of some sides following Wednesday’s State of Origin.

The outlay for Penrith ($1.58) have seen them become five times as popular as Cronulla ($2.35) for tonight’s clash despite the Panthers resting Nathan Cleary, Jarome Luai, Isaah Yeo, Brian To’o and Kurt Capewell.

The Cowboys ($2.55) have shortened to beat Manly ($1.50) with confirmation of Tom Trbojevic’s withdrawal but the Sea Eagles remain firm favourites with Jake Trbojevic and Daly Cherry-Evans to play. While Souths are minus Dane Gagai and Jai Arrow but are the shortest team of the weekend at $1.19 to beat the Knights who are $5.75.

There has also been strong money for Melbourne ($1.19) against the Warriors ($4.50) and Parramatta ($1.24) to beat the Tigers ($3.90).
