Perhaps the most compelling matchup of the week comes from Perth when the Sharks and Roosters square off. Both teams made the Top 8 last year. Both teams are looking to elevate in 2026. Both teams have notable wins on their resume this year. Both teams also have disappointing losses.

This game strikes as a crossroads game for both teams.

That should see defence reign supreme with the under a lovely bet with the total north of 50.

This is a nice under spot for both teams.

The under is 20-11 when the Sharks are off a win of 13-plus and 18-14 when they are $1.80 or bigger in head-to-head betting. The under is 33-18 when the Sharks play on the road.

The under is 26-18 when the Sydney Roosters are off a win.

The 50.5-point total number is far too big.
