NRL Super Saturday football wraps up in Sydney with the Wests Tigers hosting the Cronulla Sharks at Leichhardt Oval. The Tigers will be looking to bounce back from their first loss of the season to the Raiders in Canberra last weekend, while the Sharks are looking for their third win in a row.
Tigers coach Benji Marshall welcomes back Justin Olam from injury in place of Starford To’a (ankle). Meanwhile, he has shuffled his starting lineup, with Aidan Sezer named at halfback and Jayden Sullivan on the interchange bench.
Sharks coach Craig Fitzgibbon has also been forced to make a change after Briton Nikora was charged for a careless high tackle on Viliame Kikau, with Jack Williams named in his place. Billy Burns has been added to the interchange bench in Williams’ place.
The Tigers have won just one of their last 13 NRL games, dating back to their 66-18 win over the Cowboys at Leichhardt Oval. The Sharks have won each of their last six away matches against the Tigers, with the last four all coming by 13 or more points. The Sharks are more than capable of piling on the points and should hit the big margin again at -111.11 with Bovada.
Cronulla’s right-side attack has been incredible of late when they have been betting favourites. Centre Jesse Ramien has scored a try in six of the Sharks’ last seven matches, while winger Sione Katoa has scored at least one try in four of the last five games. With the Sharks tipped for a comfortable win, both Ramien (+150) and Katoa (-109.89) offer good value to cross the stripe at any time.
