Sharks vs. Bulldogs Predictions

The NRL continues with Round 11 action between the Sharks vs. Bulldogs on Friday, May 15 at 6:00pm at Suncorp Stadium.

Kicking of Magic Round is the Sharks vs. Bulldogs, where both teams are desperate for a win.

Best Bet

Sharks –5.5 @ $1.90

Punters never know what to expect from the Sharks, and it has frustrated their coach. However, against a Bulldogs team falling apart at the seams, a win shouldn’t be hard.

The Sharks looked much better when beating the Wests Tigers 52-10 in Round 9, and although they were hammered by the Souths last week, they should be far better this week as the –5.5 favourites against the Bulldogs.

There are serious concerns about the welfare of the Bulldogs organisation, which has underperformed with coach Cameron Ciraldo, and the changes he made haven’t worked. We don’t see them finding a way out this week, so our NRL picks have the Sharks covering the spread.

Take the –5.5 line before it moves to –6.5 on game day. We expect most of the betting support to come for the favourites.

Sharks –5.5, Ronaldo Mulitalo Anytime Try Scorer, KL Iro Anytime Try Scorer, Under 50.5 @ $8.00

Ronaldo Mulitalo didn’t score last week, but he was playing well prior to that with three tries from his previous two games. We have him scoring a try against the Bulldogs, and punters get healthy $1.85 odds.

KL Iro is having a breakout season, and the $1.93 odds to score are worth taking. He has seven tries in his last three games, which has seen him shoot up the NRL try scorer rankings. He should score another try, so include him in NRL SGM picks.

We don’t have the Bulldogs scoring a big total, which should be enough to cash under 50.5.

Best Value Bet

Addin Fonua-Blake Anytime Try Scorer @ $5.80

Bet Now

Addin Fonua-Blake is a noted try scorer for the Sharks, but the bruising forward could crash over the line for a try.

Given the way the Bulldogs are defending their line, the Sharks could be lining up to score, including their forwards. Fonua-Blake is always tough to stop close to the line, and the Sharks could do with their forwards making an impact.

Take the $5.80 odds from bookmakers.
