Newcastle Knights vs Brisbane Broncos Preview
If the three aforementioned matches are standouts, this will probably prove to be the complete opposite.
The Knights have been extremely difficult to trust from a betting perspective all year, and while I gave them little hope against the Raiders last week, they ended up recording a big win.
The Broncos are just awful, there isn’t a whole lot more to be said about them, though they did record a comfortable win over the Cowboys in Round 20.
I understand why the Knights have been priced as favourites and they will probably win, but I don’t have as much separating these two sides as the bookies clearly do.
