Perhaps the\u00a0occasion got the better of Easts last week; they tried too hard to find Daniel Tupou early on to offer Parramatta a sniff. We keep waiting for the best version of a Roosters side that already sits third<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/b>on the NRL\u00a0ladder\u00a0but a shaky performance against the 15th placed Eels last week\u00a0didn\u2019t\u00a0fill anyone with confidence.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Parramatta\u2019s inexperienced spine\u00a0couldn\u2019t\u00a0punish\u00a0all of\u00a0those Roosters errors last\u00a0week\u00a0and a Melbourne spine missing Jahrome Hughes and Cameron Munster are at risk of doing the same. Harry Grant can and will do it all on his own at times, but it makes for a simple task for the Roosters here;\u00a0contain\u00a0Grant and win the game.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Easts record against Melbourne will get plenty of mention in the lead up, but I like the Roosters attack<\/a> to play itself into form.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Prediction:<\/strong> Roosters to Cover the Line (-11.5 Points) @ $1.90<\/p>\n

Anytime Tryscorer:<\/strong> Daniel Tupou @ $1.65<\/p>\n
