The Sharks burnt me hard last week against the Warriors so I am giving them a chance to make up for it as they aim for the tenth consecutive win against the Dragons.
The Cronulla defence has been poor over the last 3 weeks but not as bad the Dragons were last weekend, leaking tries from all over the field to the Dolphins. The Dragons attack isn’t at the standard of Melbourne, Sydney or the Dolphins who put up 108 points combined against the Sharks over the last 3 weeks. That being said, with the Cronulla defence a work in progress and also that of the Dragons, I like the Over 46.5 points, which is also trending between these two clubs.
KL Iro has been ruled out and is replaced in the centres by Mawene Hiroti, who covered for him earlier in the season and impressed. Expect the Kiwi to keep his try scoring form up with his fifth in 7 appearances this season.
- The Sharks have beaten the Dragons by double-digits in the last 4 meetings between the two clubs
- The Sharks have scored over 30+ points in 4 of the last 6 matches against the Dragons.
- The Over has hit in 8 of the last 11 matches between the Sharks and Dragons.
- Mawene Hiroti has scored in 4 of 6 matches for the Sharks this season.
Head to Head
The Sharks have won the last 9 matches against the Dragons, including two 10+ margin wins in 2024.
The Sharks have won 5 of the last 6 matches against the Dragons by a margin of 10+ points.
Cronulla Sharks Form Analysis & Betting Trends
Recent Form
There is something in the water in the Shire at the moment with the Cronulla Sharks suffering more swings of form than bats at the World Series.
After three consecutive wins, the Sharks have now been clobbered twice. First by the Roosters 42-16 followed by another dismal performance last week in their 40-10 loss to the Warriors. Cronulla’s defence imploded in the second half, giving up 5 linebreaks and 5 tries, despite the Warriors only being tackled 4 times inside the Sharks 20m.
Cronulla have now allowed 108 points in 3 games and will be getting grilled this week by Craig Fitzgibbon with their defensive issues coming from in their attacking half not on their try line, allowing the least amount of tackles inside their 20m, however having a having the worst figure of tries allowed to opposition tackles in the red zone.

St George Illawarra Dragons Form Analysis & Betting Trends
Recent Form
A couple of decent performances that resulted in wins for the Dragons gave their fans hope, however, that was crushed quickly with a 56-6 defeat to the Dolphins last weekend.
34 missed tackles and giving up 9 linebreaks to your opponent is going open you up to a big score and the Dolphins didn’t make any mistakes while completing 32 of 36 sets. The Dragons were awful and that is putting it politely.
Inconsistency has been the problem for the Saints for a few seasons now and Shane Flanagan needs to start to get up week in and week out if they are going to stay in with a chance of making the Finals in 2025.
