Raiders vs Sea Eagles betting tips

Canberra Raiders – $1.54 at Bet365
Manly Sea Eagles – $2.55 at Sportsbet

The Canberra Raiders will complete a hat-trick of top-four tussles when they take on the Manly Sea Eagles in the final game of NRL Round 23.

After a tight loss to the Sydney Roosters, the Raiders came from 18-0 down at AAMI Park last week to stun the Melbourne Storm and move a game clear in third place.

Now Ricky Stuart’s men take on a Manly Warringah side with similarly impressive form lines over the past two months.

The Sea Eagles bounced back from a flat performance against the NZ Warriors to jump into the top four with a 32-12 hammering of the Wests Tigers.

Only goal differential separates Manly from South Sydney and Parramatta, but that could change if results fall their way this week.

Raiders vs Sea Eagles tryscorer odds

Jordan Rapana – It has taken Rapana a while to find his scoring touch this season, but Bet365’s $9.50 first tryscorer quote is good money for a bloke who has found the line in four of his last five starts.

Reuben Garrick – Manly’s in-form winger has registered multiple tries in three of his last five games, so there is something to be said for backing him to score two or more at $7 with Sportsbet.

Canberra Raiders to win by 1-12 points – $3.10 at Bet365

Both these teams are playing good footy at the right time of year. The Raiders dug deep after a poor first half against the Storm, while the Sea Eagles responded well to their blip across the ditch. Both are excellent in defence, so don’t expect a shootout. Home advantage tilts this one to Canberra.
