Phil Gould's Round 20 tips:

Broncos v Sharks

"I just think their game is more suited to the tight Finals style football this game might produce."

Tip: Sharks by 4

Cowboys v Knights

"Mitchell Pearce and Kalyn Ponga back together. I’m liking the Knights energy at the moment. It’s a long time since the Cowboys showed anything resembling winning form."

Tip: Knights by 8

Bulldogs v Wests Tigers

"Tigers in a nice rhythm at the moment. Provided their HIA players are passed fit, they just have too much more to play for than the Bulldogs."

Tip: Tigers by 20

Sea Eagles v Panthers

"Both teams were very disappointing last weekend. Manly defeated Panthers at Penrith only a few weeks ago. There wasn’t much in that game so hoping Panthers can turn the tables."

Tip: Panthers by 2

Rabbioths v Eels

"Rabbitohs were stunned by the enthusiastic Tigers last weekend. If they learn the necessary lessons from that performance I’m expecting a big bounce back from the Bunnies."

Tip: Souths by 18

Storm v Raiders

"Storm on a nice winning run at the moment. Not winning by big margins, but their game control is second to none."

Tip: Storm by 7

Titans v Warriors

"Big game for the Warriors. They should win but you always worry about their travel bug. Tohu Harris makes a huge difference here."

Tip: Warriors by 6

Roosters v Dragons

"Both teams are going very different to when they last met in the big ANZAC Day clash. Roosters vastly improved and I think they have more points in them than the Dragons."

Tip: Roosters by 10
