Best Bet

Sharks @ $2.10

Bet Now

We are surprised to see the Sharks listed as underdogs at home. The Roosters are always well-backed, and they have a good team, but the Sharks have been building towards a finals win, and they could be too strong.

They come off three consecutive wins over the Titans, Knights, and Bulldogs, and although the Roosters come off big wins over the Storm and Rabbitohs, they don’t often play their best rugby league on the big stage.

The Sharks won the most recent meeting 31-18 at home in July, and if Nicho Hynes plays with confidence, they could repeat that dose. He needs to play well, but we’re putting our trust in him to deliver for his team.

Same Game Multi

Sharks H2H, Ronaldo Mulitalo Anytime Try Scorer, Mark Nawaqanitawase Anytime Try Scorer, Over 46.5 @ $8.00

Bet Now

Mark Nawaqanitawase won the top try scorers title with three tries last week, and with seven tries from his last two games, he’s a man on a mission. The Roosters’ winger is having a massive season, and that’s why he’s paying only $1.53 to score.

We also like Ronaldo Mulitalo to score for the Sharks. He has seven tries from his last five games, and he’s another important player for the Sharks. If he plays well, they should go close to winning, so take the $1.80 odds.

It should be a high-scoring game, so over 46.5 points is included in our Sharks vs. Roosters SGM picks. The final score could be around 28-24.

Best Value Bet

Sharks Halftime/Fulltime @ $2.80

Bet Now

The Sharks could make a statement against the Roosters by leading throughout the game. They are good enough to get it done, and we believe they should be favourites to win at home.

Getting $2.80 to lead at halftime and fulltime is a good price from bookmakers, so include them in your NRL value bets.
