The Dragons and Bulldogs are both stunningly inside the Top 8 and it has led to a sold out Kogarah and the most excitement for a Dragons-Bulldogs clash in 15 years.
Best Bet
Few could have anticipated what a monster clash this would be with the Dragons favoured to win the wooden spoon and the Bulldogs not expected to challenge the Top 8.
Yet the Bulldogs are a huge show to finish inside the Top 4 while the Dragons currently sit eighth.
The Dragons will be confident after ending their quarter-century drought in Melbourne. They have a very good record at Kogarah, covering 13 of 19, but the Dragons have struggled off a win, covering just nine of 24.
Canterbury have been wildly underrated with 12 covers in their last 17. They have covered eight of nine off a win.
The Bulldogs are the better team and their defence should prove the difference.
