2026 NRL Round 19 Bets & Best Bets
Here is our one betting special for every game this weekend.
Odds courtesy of Sportsbet and correct at time of use.
FRI 8PM – WESTS TIGERS v WAHS @ Campbelltown
BEST BET – Warriors to win @ $1.42
Wests Tigers have a terrible record against the Warriors, and at Campbelltown, and they were terrible last week v Dragons, and the shopping Jarome Luai out of the place can’t make anything better. For the record – The Wests Tigers win over the Warriors ended a run of nine straight losses to the Wahs. Wests Tigers have won just three of their last 21 matches at Campbelltown v all sides since 2021. Warriors have won the last five matches v Wests Tigers as the away side.
SAT 3PM – DOLPHINS v CRONULLA @ Redcliffe
BEST BET – Total Match Points – Over 49.5 Points @ $1.90
Maybe wishful thinking in a post Origin loss (for Queenslanders) week that a high scoring points fest from the Dolphins is just what Queensland folk need. And there’s form for points – the Dolphins last five games at Redcliffe averaged 63.8 points. Before their last match in Newcastle where they lost 13-12, the Dolphins’ five games before that had seen more than 50 points.
SAT 5:30PM – BULLDOGS v RAIDERS @ Olympic Stadium
BEST BET – Total Match Points – Under 45.5 Points @ $1.89
Bulldogs have the fourth lowest scoring average at home this season at 18.9 and Canberra are 6th worst on the road at 19.6 points. Combined that makes 38.5 and well under the 45.5 Points. The seven Bulldogs home games this season have seen an average of 36.9 points combined.
SAT 7:30PM – ROOSTERS v PARRAMATTA
BEST BET – Line – Roosters – 10.5 Start @ $1.93
Roosters have won seven straight at the Sydney Football Stadium v Parramatta, outscoring them by 272 to 72 for an average margin of over 28 points. The have won seven of their last eight at the Sydney Football Stadium, with all but one of those wins being 14 points or more.
SUN 2PM – SOUTH SYDNEY v NEWCASTLE @ Olympic Stadium
BEST BET – Newcastle to win @ $1.85
Aside from Newcastle’s great recent record v Souths – Newcastle have won four in a row v South Sydney, and great record on a Sunday in 2026 – Newcastle have won four in a row on a Sunday v all teams, they also might have an Origin high via Bradman Best, who was great again. South Sydney’s home record isn’t great either, which helps press Newcastle claims – Souths have lost their last four Sunday home game v all teams. Only issue is Souths have won their last four games at home on a Sunday v Newcastle, so maybe Cody Walker can give his own players a kick up the arse.
SUN 4PM – MANLY v NORTH QUEENSLAND
BEST BET – Pick Your Own Line – North Queensland +6.5 Start @ $1.72
North Queensland have a decent recent record v Manly at Brookvale, North Queensland have won five of their last seven at Brookvale v Manly and North Queensland have won their last three away games in. Starting to get worried about Manly to tip now with the loss to Parramatta last weekend, signing the interim coach to permanent doesn’t always work out. But Manly do have a great record against Qld sides, so time to chicken out and just take the points start rather than a full Cowboys win.
SUN 6:15PM – MELBOURNE v GOLD COAST
BEST BET: Melbourne Total Score Over 29.5 Points @ $1.87
Melbourne avg 30 pts at AAMI Sunday since 2021. Despite ordinary form in 2026 in general, the Storm’s two games at AAMI Park on a Sunday have seen them score 42 and 44 points. Melbourn average 30.7 pts at AAMI Park v Gold Coast. Melbourne are W18 L6 anywhere on a Sunday since 2021, they have scored over 30 points for every single win.
