Dragons vs. Warriors Predictions – NRL Round 12 2026

The NRL continues with Round 12 action between the Dragons vs. Warriors on Saturday, May 23 at 5:30pm at Jubilee Stadium.

The Dragons are riding a 14-game losing streak, and it’s unlikely to end against the in-form Warriors to kick off Saturday action.

Best Bet

Warriors –13.5 @ $1.90

The Warriors are playing better than ever, and although losing Tanah Boyd to a season-ending injury hurts, Luke Metcalf gets a chance to slot back into the team.

It’s a wild turn of fortunes for Metcalf, who was injured last year before being rushed back into the team. The only losses the Warriors have suffered in 2026 came with Metcalf on the field, but he should be ready to change on Saturday.

Given how poorly the Dragons have played, we can’t see a world where they test the Warriors. The line is at –13.5 for a reason, and the Warriors should run up another big score on the Dragons, having scored 42 and 36 points in their last two games.

We recommend taking the –13.5 line before it moves higher during the week.

Same Game Multi

Warriors -13.5, Dallin Watene-Zelezniak Anytime Try Scorer, Leka Halasima Anytime Try Scorer, Over 51.5 @ $8.30

Everyone loves Dallin Watene-Zelezniak, including punters. He has been money for punters this year, and with seven tries from his last five games, there is no reason to jump off his back. The odds aren’t huge, but they provide a good boost to NRL SGM odds.

There are better odds available for Leka Halasima, who scored against the Eels two weeks ago. He doesn’t score as often as he should, but he is a tough player to stop close to the line. The $2.18 odds are generous enough to include in picks.

The Warriors have put up big totals this year, and with the way the Dragons are defending, it could be another big scoreline for the visitors, so include over 51.5 points in NRL multi bets.

Best Value Bet

Alofiana Khan-Pereira 2+ Tries @ $2.75

Alofiana Khan-Pereira bombed a chance to score last week, but it was a rare game where he didn’t score.

The Warriors winger, who moved from the Titans mid-season, had scored doubles in his previous three games, and he could add another double to his season tally.

His odds to score are short, so take the $2.75 to score 2+ tries.
