2026 NRL Round 18 Betting Market Review


Round 17 produced another shake-up in the premiership market, with several contenders enhancing their credentials through statement victories. The Dolphins were the biggest beneficiaries after edging the Warriors in a top-four clash, shortening into clear second favouritism behind Penrith.

Manly also firmed after dismantling Melbourne, while South Sydney continued to attract support following a comfortable win over Parramatta. The Roosters strengthened their position near the top after defeating Brisbane away from home, while North Queensland gained confidence with an upset victory over the Panthers.

On the other side, Melbourne drifted again after being comprehensively beaten by the Sea Eagles, while Brisbane's hopes took another hit following their home defeat to the Roosters. The Warriors eased slightly after falling just short against the Dolphins, and Penrith's loss in Townsville saw their price drift marginally, although they remain deserved favourites to lift the premiership.
