Round 22’s Friday Night Football kicks off in Auckland when the Canterbury-Bankstown Bulldogs travel to Mt Smart Stadium to take on the New Zealand Warriors.
The Warriors need some home cooking after a dreadful loss to South Sydney, while the Bulldogs managed to impress again in Bundaberg at their last start, even if they didn’t go on to win.
What the Warriors threw up last Saturday in the first half against the Rabbitohs should have had them thrown in jail. You could put that half up against the effort they put in against the Storm on ANZAC Day where they let in 50 points. The less said, the better.
When it comes to finding some winners for the home team in this game, their last effort should be completely erased from the memories of punters.
This game against Canterbury is the Warriors’ last for the season at Mt Smart and they’ll be running off the back fence. The pressure on them to perform well for their fans will bring them into the contest as a $2.45 outsider.
The online bookies are giving the home side a +5.5 head start at the line and fans should jump on it. Canterbury will be made to work hard.

There is a lot to like about the Bulldogs’ form in recent weeks. If they can continue to throw the ball around with as much success as they have done since Mick Potter took over, it will take some of the attention and pressure off their defence.
The combination of Josh Addo-Carr and Matt Burton has given the Dogs an avenue for picking up cheap tries which can break the soul of an opposition who have otherwise defended well. Backing both men each week to score a try is a wise investment at this point and they both stand a great chance against the Warriors. Big outside backs in the opposition means Addo-Carr is a massive chance on kicks.
The Bulldogs started superbly against the Cowboys but just couldn’t quite hang with them over 80 minutes. There’s no shame in losing that way and their fans should be expecting them to win this match as a $1.54 favourite with NRL betting sites.
How they handle that expectation will tell a lot about the different mindset Potter has brought to the club. The home crowd will lift the Warriors, but the 1-12 margin at $3.20 for the visitors is hard to argue against.
Key matchup: Wayde Egan vs Jeremy Marshall-King
They don’t get a lot of recognition, but both hookers are having a good year. Jeremy Marshall-King should be an inclusion into the Kiwi Rugby League World Cup squad, and Wayde Egan has improved tremendously as a running threat from acting half. Both teams generate a lot of their best play off their hooker.
Warriors vs Bulldogs Rd 22 betting predictions
The Bulldogs at the 1-12 margin feels like the safe tip. The Warriors will be spirited and keep it close, but the Doggies have the classiest player on the field in Matt Burton.
Canterbury Bulldogs by 12 points

The Bulldogs at the small margin with both Josh Addo-Carr and Matt Burton to score a try pays $12.66 with Marantelli Bet.
