Preview:
The NRL has saved the best ‘till last this week as the Dragons and Sharks do battle.
St. George has slipped all the way down to 12th on the ladder following last week’s blowout loss to the Knights, while the Sharks also find themselves outside the eight after their own 10-point loss to Manly.
No matter where these two sides sit on the ladder though, you can always expect plenty of fireworks in this epic rivalry. The pair combined for 60-points when they met in Round 6 last year, a game the Dragons must hold particularly fond memories of after clean sweeping the Sharks in the two-game series.
Cronulla last won on the road against the Dragons back in 2017, but you’d be best off sticking with the Total in this one. Neither side has looked particularly convincing over the last two weeks, while both also rank in the bottom half of the league in tries and points.
Despite last year’s points-fest in Round 6, the previous three meetings all totalled well Under 40 points. Play it safe and back this one to be low scoring.
Tip: Cronulla Sharks at $1.95
Value Tip: First Try Scorer: Aaron Gray at $10.00
