Sydney Roosters vs Cronulla Sharks prediction
Cronulla Sharks have been scorching of late whether it high or low scoring. They are consistently finding ways to win and multiple players are stepping up for them when required. Their most recent victory was an 8-10 triumph over second-placed New Zealand Warriors, which was again an example of how they can get the job done in different game situations.
Sydney Roosters meanwhile, were thrashed 48-10 by the Dophins last time out, undoing their good work the previous week when they had successfully nilled Canberra Raiders. The Roosters have lost three from their last four in the NRL and when you factor in the quality of their opponents here, it would be a surprise if that didn’t become four from five.
