We've now got two weeks of form to study since the Telstra Premiership has returned and round five features several great games, kicking off on Thursday night.

It's time to get your tips in - you don't want to miss the cut.

If you need help on how each team is travelling, Jamie Soward's Power Rankings is the best place to go for an accurate gauge on who's travelling well and who's doing not so well.

Here are the NRL.com expert panel's predictions for the round.

Fox Sports reporter Hannah Hollis has lost the outright lead and is now in a six-way tie with former NRL coach Matthew Elliott, NRL.com journalist Zac Bailey, Sharks premiership winner Michael Ennis, retired Jillaroos prop Ruan Sims and the mysterious NRL Fantasy guru Loan Scout in the race to be this year's top tipster.

According to our panel, half of the matches have a unanimous favourite with the Sea Eagles, Raiders, Roosters and Sharks tipped to win their respective clashes with Brisbane, Wests Tigers, Canterbury and St George Illawarra.
