Storm vs. Bulldogs Predictions - NRL Round 22 2026Ended

The NRL continues with Round 22 action between the Storm vs. Bulldogs on Friday, July 31 at 8:00 pm at AAMI Park.

One of the most important games of the week is Storm vs. Bulldogs, where the Storm’s season could end with a loss.

Best Bet

Bulldogs -5.5 @ $1.90

Bet Now

We didn’t see it coming, but the Bulldogs have turned their season around, and now they’re playing like a premiership-level team.

With four wins from their last five games, including a dominant 18-6 win over the Warriors last week, they are trucking towards the finals, and a win over the Storm could be enough to secure a top eight spot.

For the Storm, it’s all about winning every game from here on out. They gave up a crucial late loss to the Rabbitohs last week, and when they look back, that loss could be the turning point. We don’t think they’re playing well enough, and their edge defence is awful.

Punters should expect the Bulldogs to roll through the Storm, so take the -5.5 line before money comes for the visitors.

Same Game Multi

Bulldogs -5.5, Jacob Kiraz Anytime Try Scorer, Jacob Preston Anytime Try Scorer, Over 42.5 @ $10.75

Bet Now

We’re backing the Jacob’s to score tries for the Bulldogs. Jacob Kiraz scored a long overdue try last week against the Warriors, and with his confidence returning, he could go on a tear. The $1.89 odds are a fair price from bookmakers.

Jacob Preston has a knack of finding the try line, as he did last week. He’s one of the best supporting players in the NRL, especially close to the line. The $2.80 odds are well worth taking to boost NRL SGM odds.

Bookmakers have the total points line at 42.5, which is lower than expected. They combined for 50 points when meeting in May, which is a good form guide for all bets, with the Bulldogs winning 30-20.

Best Value Bet

Jacob Preston 2+ Tries @ $9.75

Bet Now

Preston is a quality player for the Bulldogs, and although scoring multiple tries is difficult, he could have another big game on Friday night.

His ability to follow kicks and run good lines close to the line is exceptional, and he often goes under the radar as a try scoring threat.

$9.75 to score 2+ tries is worth the risk.
