Our best bet for Saturday’s NRL Elimination Final between the Cronulla Sharks and North Queensland Cowboys is the Sharks to Win \/ Under 47.5 \/ Mulitalo to Score Same Game Multi at $5.10, with Cronulla’s first-choice halves pairing back and Ronaldo Mulitalo scoring in each of the Sharks’ last five wins.<\/em><\/p>\n One team’s season will end on Saturday night, as the Sharks host the Cowboys in the second NRL Elimination Final at Allianz Stadium in Sydney.<\/p>\n This is the toughest of the finals to call this weekend, with both teams bringing highly mercurial track records into this clash.<\/p>\n Cronulla were on track for a top-four finish before losing four of their last five, including their most recent two.<\/p>\n The Cowboys have been similarly patchy, losing three of their last five, bookended by an 82-12 loss to the Roosters in July and a 50-30 defeat to the Raiders most recently.<\/p>\n There isn’t much in this one, but two factors point towards the Sharks getting over the line here.<\/p>\n First, they’ve got their first-choice halves pairing back in Braydon Trindall and Nicho Hynes. These two are integral to Cronulla’s attack, and when firing, are far superior to the Cowboys’ pivots.<\/p>\n Second, there’s some positive recent history for the Sharks when it comes to these two sides playing in NRL finals. They met in the semis two years ago, with Cronulla prevailing 26-18.<\/p>\n Both teams have had their fair share of high-scoring matches in recent weeks, but this one should buck that trend.<\/p>\n Each will know they have a genuine shot at scratching their way to week two of the finals, despite being in poor form.<\/p>\n Expect this to create a scrappy, tight match where both sides struggle to handle the pressure at times.<\/p>\n Mulitalo has been an excellent tryscorer bet in this column over the 2026 season.<\/p>\n The Sharks’ winger has 12 tries in just 15 matches so far this year, including in each of Cronulla’s last five wins.<\/p>\nCronulla Sharks vs North Queensland Cowboys<\/h2>\n
