A new season, but the same old stat-filled preview of the upcoming weekend of rugby league is here with our 2023 NRL Round 4 Tips Stats Preview + Alternative Tips.
Each week we offer up a quick preview glance for each match, a bunch of barely interesting stats, probably more than one could ever need or want.
We also offer up some alternative tips. These alternative tips are often based on a rugby league stat, and sometimes something completely absurd, and are aimed at those NRL tipsters who just can’t be bothered.
For the first big Battle of Brisbane clash, our alternative tips are in honour of the Dolphins.
