Sea Eagles vs. Storm Predictions

The NRL continues with Round 17 action between the Sea Eagles vs. Storm on Saturday, June 27 at 7:35pm at 4 Pines Park.

It doesn’t get much better than the Sea Eagles vs. Storm, and most of the money has come for the Sea Eagles to win at home.

Best Bet

Storm +6.5 @ $1.90

Bet Now

The Storm are without Jahrome Hughes, but we’re surprised by the lack of betting support for them. He’s a big player, but they still have Cameron Munster and Harry Grant, and they’re good enough to lead Melbourne to victory.

After a slow start to the year, the Storm have posted four wins from their last five games. They scored wins over the Roosters and Knights before beating Canberra last week, and those wins can’t be overlooked.

A win on Saturday gives them a good chance of making the finals, which looked like a like shot chance a few weeks ago. The Sea Eagles lost to Canterbury last week, which was their second loss in the last three weeks.

We don’t think there is 6.5 points between these teams, so the Storm +6.5 is one of our best Round 17 bets.

Same Game Multi

Storm +6.5, Will Warbrick Anytime Try Scorer, Moses Leo Anytime Try Scorer, Over 47.5 @ $9.00

Bet Now

The Storm have a lot of quality try scorers, including Will Warbrick and Moses Leo. Warbrick scored three tries against Canberra last week, and with his confidence levels sky high, he should add another try to his record at $1.84.

Leo has six tries from his last five games, and he has been a great signing for the Storm. He is tough to stop close to the line, and because the Storm aren’t being respected in markets, punters get a healthy $2.20.

Our final score prediction has the Storm winning 28-24, so we’re including over 47.5 points in our NRL SGM picks.

Best Value Bet

Storm 1-12 @ $3.80

Bet Now

It can be risky to bet against the market, but we believe the Storm are well-placed to win on the road, and it should be a close game.

Manly hasn’t looked as good recently as they did earlier this year, and although the Origin players return, the same applies for the Storm.

Melbourne knows how to win at this time of the year, so the $3.80 odds for a 1-12 margin is a good price for punters.
