It's back. Footy returns on Thursday night so it's time to get your tips in.

With three matches featuring unbeaten teams facing each other, it's going to be a tough round to predict, especially considering there is no trial form, no recent on-field action of any kind to gt a gauge on who's hot and who's not.

If you need a refresher on how each team is travelling heading into the Telstra Premiership restart, Jamie Soward's Power Rankings can help.

And here's what our panel of experts predict for round three.

Former NRL coach Matthew Elliott, Fox Sports reporter Hannah Hollis, NRL.com journalist Zac Bailey and the mysterious NRL Fantasy guru Loan Scout have the early runs on the board but thankfully, there are another 18 rounds remaining for the other experts to take this year's title of top tipster.

According to our panel, North Queensland to beat Gold Coast and Manly over the Bulldogs are the only unanimous selections for the round.
