Reinforcements for Sea Eagles

The Sea Eagles may have lost 13-12 to the South Sydney Rabbitohs last week, but they have been one of the more impressive NRL teams..

They defeated the Bulldogs and Eels in the opening rounds, and they get some key players back to face the Knights.

They welcome back Cooper Johns, Lachlan Croker, and Morgan Harper, which gives them plenty of bolster in the midfield. We believe that’s a primary reason why sport betting markets have them at -600 to win the game outright.

Losing by one point to the Rabbitohs is an exceptional form against a team like the Knights. They arguably should have won that game and remained unbeaten, and getting Aaron Woods in a surprise swap helps the team, according to NRL news.

“As of today I think both clubs are talking to each other. There are a couple of young players at the Sea Eagles who want to go to the Dragons, Manly have asked to take me in return,” Woods said.

Apparently, it happened on Friday. It was more the fact Manly showed interest in me. It just made sense, it’s a good swap. It works well for both parties. I’m just thankful for the opportunity and I can’t wait to start.”

Knights’ Confidence Rising

The Knights have won two of their four games in 2023, which is better than what most had predicted.

Las Vegas NRL odds might still have them at +13½ for this game, but after beating the Canberra Raiders 24-12 last week, they have confidence.

Their recent form against the Sea Eagles is a big worry, but the Knights should fancy their chances of keeping this game close on the road.

They were able to soak up the early pressure against the Raiders, who led at halftime. It was a good comeback win from a team not expected to be beating teams like the Raiders.

Both teams are unbeaten at Glen Willow Oval from three attempts, which makes for interesting reading. However, if the Knights want to be competitive, they need to slow down the Sea Eagles’ pairing of Josh Schuster and Daly Cherry-Evans, who could run riot.

Knights vs Sea Eagles Head-to-Head

The Sea Eagles have a 20-17 advantage over the Knights, but it has been one-sided action recently.

They won the most recent meeting at home 42-12, which followed a 30-6 victory on the road earlier in the year.
