Brisbane have been poor away pretty well all season. They come into this without Boucher and Mckinnon, Bruton carrying an injury and playing against medical advice supposedly, plus EE arrived back in the country from the US yesterday and supposedly flew straight to Melbourne.
Brisbane have won the last few encounters, but i think tigers will get payback here.
Wollongong +15 1.5u
Wollongong got down big early last time they played then made a late run as they often do. If they get off to a decent start i think it will be a competitive game. Even if they don't they are always a decent cance for a backdoor cover because they don't usually give up.
Souths +4.5 0.4u
Found an off line and got a few dollars down. Thinking about taking more at the lower number but i am finding it hard to pull the trigger on souths.
Heal is not coaching due to having ankle surgery. Can't help but think certain players will try and stick it to him by getting the win here. However, there form is pretty terrible. They came close to getting a win in Wollongong but this was due to shooting the ball better than wollongong and were beaten in other areas such as rebounding.

Major disaster last night, not even close on any picks.
West Sydney v Townsville under 209.5 1u
My forecast for this one is under 200 despite recent scores between the two.
Townsville have been struggling to put up 80 on the road lately. West Sydney have been giving up big scores but not scoring them.
NZ v Perth under 200.5 1u
Betting this will be a hard fought war. Perth are short on numbers with Loughton out, plus they have a game on Saturday with the Kings so my guess is they will be keen to slow the game down whereever possible.

Cairns offence should be more potent with Darnell Mee back and running the show, plus Cattalini with a few runs under his belt. GC offence also on the improve with Whitehead getting with the program.

nbl lacks in resources the pic they chose to pay respect to ronaldsons 600th looks like his been in a swimming pool full of blood more like a scene from psycho than one that should be used to headline his 600th game

Another minor disaster but I don't have a problem with my picks. The shooting in the Cairns GC game was horrendous:
Cairns 33/102 = 32%
GC 29/99=29%
free throw %s were poo also.
With that many shots you would expect it to go over 190 easily.
In the Wollongong game despite their being 40 points in the first 5 minutes the under was looking ok in the fourth until Wollongong decided to drag it out fouling when they had little chance of winning.
Adelaide +4 1u
Adelaide v Brisbane over 219.5 1u
Adelaide have put in some strong performances amongst some ordinairy ones in recent times and I am betting it is time for another strong one. Maher is expected to play which should improve their morale as well as giving them another scoring option. Ballinger, Hodge, Ng and Davidson have been playing well.
Chance of a let down for Brisbane after Wednesday, plus they have generally been ordinairy on the road Wednesday excepted.
Sydney -2 1.5u
Perth have wilted in the second half of their last two games and now have to go again after playing Thurs in NZ.
Sydney have had a fairly soft schedule of late, their last five opponents have all been teams outside the 8. However, i think they will be up to revenge their only home loss of the season.
NZ -3.5 1u
Willing to bet against the coaching change scenario. NZ are getting it together and have alot of players playing well. Mika Vukona puts in more effort than the Dragons combined. They have had some poor road performances and some impressive wins. I think they will get the job done here.
May add another total.
Looks like my prediction earlier in the season about singapore folding were well off the mark. Hopefully they can get a few better players and be a force with their home court advantage next season:
