Best Bet

Cowboys +7.5 @ $1.90

Bet Now

We’re putting out faith in the Cowboys to turn up given what’s on the line. They need a win to have any chance of making the finals, and the Sharks haven’t been invincible at times this year.

The Cowboys come off a win over the Dragons, and although it got close in the end, they were always in control of the game. That’s what the Cowboys can produce, and they need to measure up against a physical Sharks team on Sunday.

With the Sharks winning three on the bounce, they could get too comfortable, and that’s when the Cowboys can strike as +7.5 underdogs. It’s a fair line from bookmakers, and it’s good enough to include in picks.

Same Game Multi

Cowboys +7.5, Scott Drinkwater Anytime Try Scorer, Ronaldo Mulitalo Anytime Try Scorer, Over 48.5 @ $11.25

Bet Now

Punters get good odds for Scott Drinkwater to score a try at $2.70. The Cowboys fullback has been in try-scoring form with five tries from his last five games, so we’re not sure why he’s paying big odds to score.

Bookmakers believe the Sharks defence will be too tough, but it should be a high-scoring game, which is why we included over 48.5 points in our NRL same game multi picks.

Ronaldo Mulitalo is a $1.72 favourite to score, so he’s worth including. He scored a try last week, which broke a scoring drought, and he could kick on with it now.

Best Value Bet

Cowboys H2H @ $3.01

Bet Now

It’s season over if the Cowboys lose this game, so we’re happy to include them as a value bet at $3.01 with head-to-head markets.

They played well enough on offence last week to give the Sharks something to worry about, and they just need to eliminate silly errors coming out of their own half. If they do that, an upset could be on the horizon on Sunday.
