NRL Finals Preview – Betting Insights, Stats, Tips & Previews

The finals are here and you could make a case for all eight teams to win the title. We’re going to give you all the betting insights, stats, tips and previews for each game.

Game 1

Storm V Rabbitohs – Aami Park – 7:40 pm 7/9/18

The Storm have six of their big guns back in action after being rested last week and we expect them to be firing on all cylinders. It was a big punt from the Storm as they missed a chance to record their third consecutive minor premiership. The Rabbitohs are coming off a strong 51-10 victory over the Tigers last week and would be buoyed by Inglis being in top form again.

Insights

• The Storm has won 11 of their last 13 encounters with the Rabbitohs.
• South Sydney has lost each of their last 14 matches in Melbourne.
• Josh Addo-Carr has scored at least one try in each of his last three appearances against the Rabbitohs.
• Cody Walker has scored a try in each of his last two outings.

TIP: Storm @ $1.80     MULTI: Storm + Josh Addo-Carr Anytime Try-scorer @ $2.75

Game 2

Panthers V Warriors – ANZ Stadium – 5:30 pm 8/9/18

It will be the first time since 2011 that the Warriors will make an appearance in the finals so expect them to be hungry and to come out firing. The Panthers were less than convincing heading into the finals with one win from their last three outings.

Insights

• The Panthers have won six consecutive home matches against the Warriors.
• The Warriors have lost 16 of their last 19 night matches in Australia.
• Josh Mansour has scored a try in each of his last five appearances at ANZ Stadium.

TIP: Panthers 1-12 @ $2.80     MULTI: Panthers 1-12 + Josh Mansour Anytime Try-scorer @ $6.25

Game 3 

Roosters V Sharks – Allianz Stadium – 7:40 pm 8/9/18

The Roosters ticked the minor premiers box last week with a dominant 10-44 victory over the Eels and now will be looking to make it the double but a confident Sharks outfit will be standing in their way here. The Sharks put a week of controversy behind them last week and demolished the Bulldogs 18-30. Wade Graham has made no secrets about his intentions to shut down Cooper Cronk here and if he can do so it will go a long way to wrapping up a victory.

Insights

• The Sharks have won each of their last 4 away matches against the Roosters.
• Each of the last three finals at Allianz Stadium have been won by the underdogs.
• Josh Dugan has scored a try in each of his last four outings.
• Latrell Mitchell has been the first try-scorer in four of Sydney’s last six night matches at Allianz.

TIP: Sharks @ $2.45     MULTI: Sharks + Josh Dugan Anytime Try-scorer @ $7

Game 4

Broncos V Dragons – Suncorp – 4 pm 9/9/18

The Broncos secured a home final after demolishing Manly last week and also marked their 25th finals campaign in the last 27 seasons. The Dragons ended their regular season on a positive note with a 14-24 victory over the Knights.

Insights

• The Broncos have won 10 consecutive home games against the Dragons.
• Corey Oates has scored at least one try in eight of Brisbane’s last nine home matches.
• Matt Dufty has scored at least one try in each of the Dragons last two matches in QLD.

TIP: Broncos 1-12 @ $3.10     MULTI: Broncos 1-12 + Corey Oates Anytime Try-scorer @ $5
