Sharks vs. Storm Predictions - NRL Round 27 2026

Ended

The NRL continues with Round 27 action between the Sharks vs. Storm on Saturday, September 5 at 7:35pm at Ocean Protect Stadium.

The betting line has moved significantly during the week with the Sharks resting players, so the Storm are now firm favourites.

Best Bet

Storm -8.5 @ $1.90

Bet Now

We fancied the Storm to beat the Sharks before the changes to the Sharks team, and we like them even more now.

We now must take a -8.5 line, but the Storm should want to finish their season with a win. It has been a rare poor season for the Storm, who will miss the finals. However, they should want to play well for their coach on Saturday.

The Sharks haven’t played well over the last month, including a loss to the Eels last week. That was a terrible effort, and it saw them slip to 5th on the NRL ladder. They can rest their players ahead of the finals, which is the smart thing to do.

However, it will likely result in a loss, so we’re backing the Storm to win and cover the -8.5 spread. They come off a huge win over the Broncos, so their confidence levels are high.

Same Game Multi

Storm -8.5, Sualauvi Fa'alogo Anytime Try Scorer, Tyran Wishart Anytime Try Scorer, Under 50.5 @ $14.50

Bet Now

Sualauvi Fa’alogo has been scoring tries recently, and he has consistently been one of the Storm’s best players. He has a try in four of his last five games, and we’re taking the $1.69 for him to score again on Saturday.

Tyran Wishart paid good odds to score last week, and we’re hoping punters jumped on. He has five tries from his last five games, and he continues to pay generous odds to score. The $2.50 price is a big boost to NRL SGM picks.

The Sharks could struggle to put points on the board without Nicho Hynes, so take under 50.5 points.

Best Value Bet

Tyran Wishart 2+ Tries @ $7.75

Bet Now

Wishart has a knack of finding the try line, and he scored a double against the Broncos last week.

He is a good support player close to the line, and he has been finishing off tries in fine style for the Storm, and he could score another double.

The $7.75 odds are generous for a player in grand form.
