Despite all the State of Origin hype and all the players broken from the short turnarounds, the 2023 NRL Season still exists, and so does our stat-filled preview of the upcoming weekend of rugby league with our 2023 NRL Round 15 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.
This week with June upon us, we have tips based on winning % of teams in June.
2023 NRL Round 15 Tips – Alternative Tips – June Winning %
Short on inspiration? Or looking for that edge to your tipping that no one else in your competition has? Well here are the Alternative NRL Tips for this round.
With June here, and as long as you ignore that last weekend’s round started in June, we decided to see which team has the best record in June since 1998.
So higher the winning %, the more likely that team will win this weekend, because it’s in June.
