FRIDAY NRL BOOMS

Boom Best
Under 33.5 Canterbury-Newcastle ($1.88)
These two have a very long history of low-scoring games with the under hitting in 18 of 22 meetings since 2008. Four of the last five have not tallied more than 38. These are the two worst attacking teams in the NRL this season and the Bulldogs were the worst attacking team in 2021. The Bulldogs go under at 60% away from ANZ and are 13-5 under off conceding 14 or fewer points. 
Boom-o-meter: 90%

Boom Value
Brisbane ($2.30) v Manly
The Broncos are a much-improved team this year and that is particularly true at Suncorp. They have covered nine of 11 at the ground and beat Cronulla off the stick the last time they played in Brisbane. The Broncos have played Manly well recently too, covering five of seven and scoring at least 18 in six of the last seven matches. Manly are typically overplayed away from Brookvale. The Broncos are value here. 
Boom-o-meter: 75%

Boom Boom
Herbie Farnworth Try ($3.40)
Brisbane centre Herbie Farnworth has been in excellent tryscoring form this season with six tries in eight appearances. He has crossed in his last two games and gets a favourable matchup against rookie Ben Trbojevic. 
Boom-o-meter: 50%
