Storm vs. Bulldogs Predictions

Best Bet

Storm -5.5 @ $1.90

Bet Now

It could pay to jump on the Storm –5.5 line before it moves to –6.5. The Storm come off a great come-from-behind win over the Panthers, and that should give them enough confidence to handle the Bulldogs.

They used Xavier Coates through the air brilliantly against the shorter Panthers players, and they could adopt similar tactics against the Bulldogs, who lost 32-12 to the Roosters last week. That wasn’t a good performance, and it’s a worrying sign heading into the finals.

The Storm is a top team, and we’re happy to take the line before late money comes for him.

Same Game Multi

Storm –5.5, Xavier Coates Anytime Try Scorer, Jacob Kiraz Anytime Try Scorer, Over 40.5 @ $9.25

Bet Now

Bookmakers have set a low line for the totals points, so we’re locking in over 40.5 points. The final score could be around 26-16, which is enough for the Storm to cover the spread and over 40.5 points.

Points should come from Coates, who is in excellent try-scoring form. He has five tries from his last three games, including a double against the Panthers last week, and although $1.55 is getting short, it’s worth including in Storm vs. Bulldogs SGM picks.

We also like Jacob Kiraz to score at $2.35. He didn’t score in his last two games, but the Bulldogs player has enough ability to post a try against the Storm. Punters should include him in picks as a value bet.

Best Value Bet

Xavier Coates 2+ Tries @ $3.10

Bet Now

There is good value with Coates 2+ tries, which would be three consecutive games with 2+ tries for the Storm winger.

He is in career-best form, and he should fancy his chances of leaping above the Bulldogs defence on Friday night, so the $3.10 odds are generous.

He also had a three-try effort earlier this year, so it wouldn’t shock anyone to see him score a double.
