THE PREDICTION
North Queensland Cowboys come into this clash under some pressure having performed so poorly against Cronulla Sharks last week. There have been accusations levelled at the Cowboys that they don’t want to do the tough stuff in the middle of the pitch and that will become clear against a Penrith Panthers side that will challenge them more than anyone else in the NRL in that department. The Panthers are on a good run of form and with Nathan Cleary back in the side, it is tough to envisage the away side failing to prevail.
TIP: PENRITH PANTHERS -7.5
