Sharks vs. Raiders Predictions

Ended

The NRL continues with Round 24 action between the Sharks vs. Raiders on Saturday, August 15 at 3:00pm at Ocean Protect Stadium.

Super Saturday kicks off with the Sharks vs. Raiders, where the Sharks look to keep their top four hopes alive.

Best Bet

Sharks -10.5 @ $1.90

Bet Now

Big bets have come for the Sharks to win the game, which has seen the line move to -10.5.

They look to bounce back following a shock defeat to the Dragons last week, and if they want to win the premiership, they can’t lose to teams like the Dragons.

Returning to Ocean Protect Stadium, where they have a great record, will help. They have a 14-1 record from their last 15 games at this venue, and that’s why they have been confidently backed to beat the struggling Raiders.

Canberra comes off losses to Penrith and Newcastle, and their top eight chances are all but gone. They needed to beat the Knights last week, and last year’s minor premiers haven’t been able to live up to expectations this time around.

Include Sharks -10.5 in NRL picks this week before more money comes for the home side.

Same Game Multi

Sharks -10.5, Ronaldo Mulitalo Anytime Try Scorer, Nicho Hynes Anytime Try Scorer, Over 52.5 @ $8.00

Bet Now

Ronaldo Mulitalo didn’t score last week against the Dragons, but he loves playing at home, and he should get over the line for a try. He has five tries from his last five games, so include the $1.64 odds in multi bets.

Nicho Hynes is primarily a playmaker, but he can score tries. He has three from his last five games, and bookmakers have him at $2.55, which gives our NRL SGM odds a big boost.

We expect plenty of tries in what could be the highest-scoring game of the week. Over 52.5 is a solid multi bet pick.

Best Value Bet

Siosifa Talakai Anytime Try Scorer @ $4.80

Bet Now

Looking to score a try in three consecutive games is Siosifa Talakai, who scored a try against Souths and the Dragons.

The forward is tough to stop close to the line, and we predict the Sharks scoring plenty of tries, so his chances of crossing the line increase.

The $4.80 odds qualify as a value bet, and Talakai is a man on a mission at the moment.
