NRL S2016 R02 Predictions

After a pretty good first round of 6 out of 8 correct picks (75% accuracy) I present the round 2 predictions.

All of the picks this round are in line with the bookies so not a whole lot to say. I have included a new column indicating if the tip is in line with the bookmaker.

I have been updating the model continuously and the ‘old’ model (the one used for round 1) actually predicts St George to win against the Sharks, which would be the only game betting against the bookies.

Quick tips:

Penrith Panthers to win against Canterbury Bulldogs while Home
Brisbane Broncos to win against New Zealand Warriors while Home
Canberra Raiders to win against Sydney Roosters while Home
South Sydney Rabbitohs to win against Newcastle Knights while Home
North Queensland Cowboys to win against Parramatta Eels while Away
Cronulla Sharks to win against St George Illawarra Dragons while Home
Melbourne Storm to win against Gold Coast Titans while Home
Manly Sea Eagles to win against Wests Tigers while Away
