NRL Round 7 Tips from The Postman | 2020 Season

The Postman's Tips for Round 7, 2020.
Published June 25, 2020


6/8 and the tipping percentage climbs ever so slightly - that's 23/32 since the NRL resumed and you'll take that won't you?

Swung and missed on Penrith (was a week early tipping them to peak) and Canberra were woeful (Manly were superb).

Round 7 Tips:
Thursday
Panthers over Rabbitohs
Souths have beaten up two poor teams back to back, whereas Penrith should have beaten Parra and then were excellent to beat Melbourne. Penrith it is.

Friday

Storm over Warriors
The Warriors sacked Stephen Kearney but the Storm have played ordinary footy for the most part since the resumption - expecting Craig Bellamy to demand a bounce back here. Storm.
Roosters over Dragons
The Saints shouldn't get within 10 let alone 30 of the Chooks at the moment but if James Tedesco doesn't play... Easts by 28.

Saturday

Knights over Cowboys
Jason Taumalolo can't do it all... and he'll have to for North Queensland to put up a fight against a well drilled and skilled in key areas Newcastle Knights team. Knights.
Broncos over Titans
Actually really want to tip the Titans as they may play the freer of the football with no pressure on them and a mountain of it on Supercoach Seibold. Brisbane get the tip but this is not a slam dunk.
Eels over Raiders
You just can't pick Canberra after last week's debacle v Manly. Parra fell short v Easts but played the far better footy. Tip Canberra if you want but it's hopeful. Eels.

Sunday
Sea Eagles over Sharks
Manly are being hammered by injuries (Tommy Trbojevic and Dylan Walker join the list) but keep fronting up... the same can't be said about Cronulla so far this year. So go with Manly, but if you want an outsider this weekend take the Sharks.
Tigers over Bulldogs
Was the 1st Half last week a mirage from the Wests Tigers? You know what you'll get from Canterbury - effort without much result on the scoreboard. Kieran Foran is playing great footy but you should pick the Tigers.

Join Robb Cox and Warrick Nicolson for our weekly NRL Podcast featuring Wayne Bennett's press conference for the ages, Brisbane's promised 2nd team and our Round 7 Tips.

We aren't pleased with how the Rugby League media is linking every good old coach to every NRL head coaching job (open or not) so we get stuck in and we also talk a realistic time frame for Brisbane's 2nd Team that Peter V'landys has declared will happen... eventually.

Plus Coxsmith makes us talk Origin at the end of the show and we clean out the NTFS mailbag.

All this and a little bit more on Episode 217 of NOT The Footy Show.

Enjoy

NRL Round 6 Tips from The Postman | 2020 Season

The Postman's Tips for Round 6, 2020.
Published June 17, 2020


Well 5/8 again... but not 5/5 then 0/3 at least. You would take 5/8 every week but you don't have to like it.

Round 5 Results:
Sea Eagles 20 Broncos 18 Correct
Warriors 37 Cowboys 26
Incorrect
Eels 16 Panthers 10 - 
Incorrect
Rabbitohs 32 Titans 12 Correct
Storm 26 Knights 12
 Correct
Raiders 14 Tigers 6
 Correct
Dragons 30 Sharks 16
Incorrect
Roosters 42 Bulldogs 6
 Correct

That keeps the tipping percentage at 62.5% for the season (25/40) with time running out to stay within striking distance of the tipping holy grail of 70% for the season.

Round 6 Tips:
Thursday
Knights over Broncos
Form says Newcastle... so stick with the Knights.

Friday

Rabbitohs over Warriors
The Bunnies beat up ordinary teams then struggle against the better ones - the Warriors are not one of the better ones.
Storm over Panthers
Should've stuck with the favoured Eels last week... went Penrith and got burnt. Just like they did blowing a 10-0 lead. As a result the tip is Melbourne... but feel free to back the Mountain Men if you dare.

Saturday

Dragons over Titans
St George Illawarra certainly aren't 'back' but the Titans are below average and Saints can be average to half decent on their day.
Tigers over Cowboys
The Tigers played boring footy and lost... the Cowboys played bad footy and let in almost 40 to lost to the offensively-challenged Warriors. Go Tigers.
Roosters over Eels
If you've watched Easts since the resumption there's no doubt which team is playing the better footy over this time. And Parra are playing very well but the Chooks are better than everyone by a mile.

Sunday
Raiders over Sea Eagles
Manly are down on a few key troops and Canberra are only missing one player from their best team (John Bateman). Go the Raiders here but overly respect Manly if you must.
Sharks over Bulldogs
Simply have no preference... they were both bad last week - Cronulla more so than Canterbury but you will go with the Sharks eventually so stop pretending you'll pick the Bulldogs already.
