Preview:
Michael Chee-Kam single-handedly won the game for the Tigers last week after what can only be described as a lacklustre first half effort.
Wests now find themselves one win away from a spot back inside the eight, but they’ll need to sharpen up this week against the reigning premiers.
The Roosters slipped up against the Storm in Adelaide last week losing 14-12. The game was there to be won in the second half, but a complete lack of possession left the Roosters on the back foot as they failed to put any points on the board.
Sydney are 1-2 on the back of a loss this season, but they’ll feel pretty confident heading into Friday night’s game knowing they pummeled the Tigers by 30-points back in Round 8.
The Roosters have won four of their last five games against Wests, but with short odds on offer head-to-head, the line is where you’ll want to place your money.
Trent Robinson’s side is 4-1 as the line favourite away from home against the Tigers. Wests have won back-to-back games twice this year, but their average losing margin is 19.4 points.
Tip: Sydney Roosters at $1.45
