THE PREDICTION
Wests Tigers will feel that they have had a successful start to the new season if they can get the better of St. George Illawarra Dragons. Both teams have won two of their games so far but will be eager to get the better of one another here as they aim to put some consistent performances together. There is little to split the pair and it could be a tight affair but Wests have shown more in their games to date and are the slight preference in this one.
TIP: WESTS TIGERS TO WIN
