My Prediction
Cronulla Sharks by 8You know, if we're talking rugby, we can't ignore this thrilling matchup between the Wests Tigers and the Cronulla Sharks. It's like watching an action movie, only it's real, and there's more sweat...and less Bruce Willis.
The Sharks are enjoying a stronger season, swimming comfortably at spot #6 on the current NRL Premiership 2025 ranking. The Tigers, on the other hand, have been licking their wounds at a more modest #12. Nothing that a good tuna sandwich can't solve, right?
And let's peek at their diaries, shall we? When these two teams went head to head more often than not, the Sharks were the ones flashing their teeth. Except for that shocking day in March '24 when tigers decided to go shark hunting, of course. But that's ancient history, we're in 2025, after all.
Look at the Sharks recent performances - they've been making waves! Left their signature tooth marks on Knights, and an agonizingly tight win against the Sea Eagles. The Tigers' dance card isn't quite as glowing. A defeat dealt by the Eels, another by the Broncos and a too-close call against the Warriors. It's like watching a soap opera with no handsome actors or plot twists.
But folks, this is rugby. And like my ex-wife’s cooking, anything could happen. Today's soufflé could be tomorrow's burnt toast! Just remember, we're only at Round 8, and this grand old opera ain't over till the final whistle, regardless of the cries from the stands.
Ladies and gents, based on the proceedings, I present to you...
