2025 NRL Round 23 Results – Monday’s Experts Key Learnings
It’s easy to throw around a few stats post matches in a Monday’s experts, and we certainly do that, but our Monday’s Experts Key Learning tries to guide you into considering some key stats from the weekend to remember for your next tipping adventure.
NO ONE BEATS MELBOURNE ON A THURSDAY…AT HOME…BUT NOT REALLTY AWAY EITHER
Melbourne’s win over Brisbane on Thursday was more routine than some rugby league fans would realise, as it was their 20th win from 20 games at home on a Thursday. That is some record. Overall the Storm are at 84% for winning on a Thursday overall, with the Dolphins the next best team. Penrith are third with 64%. The Dolphins (75% win rate) actually have the best away record on a Thursday, with Melbourne not far behind on 71%. The rest start at 58%.
One thing to come from our look into Thursdays is the Warriors have never won a Thursday game. They have only played three, so blame Channel Nein for that stat.
We even have some fancy visuals to go with this stat for Round 23 NRL Results.

STATS v FORM THIS TIME
South Sydney were as close to as busted arse of an NRL club we have seen in a while coming into Round 23. Last on the ladder, increasing injury list, and a grumpier Wayne Bennett in charge. Thankfully for them they faced the Gold Coast Titans a team they had beaten 9 times in a row before heading into Sunday’s game. It’s now ten. It’s now also ten wins in a row at home. So historical stats, plus Latrell Mitchell’s return and having to soon-to-be leading tryscorer ever helps a bit, but stats won out this time.
BUT NOT ALWAYS…..
Cronulla had won ten in a row v St George Illawarra and Cronulla had won five in a row v St George Illawarra at Kogarah. But lost.
Manly have won their last two visits to Canberra and five of the last six. But lost.
Warriors are W12 L3 v Bulldogs on a Saturday but lost.
So maybe stats only beats form when the teams are second last and last.
THE 2025 ZERO LINE BREAK CLUB DOUBLES
Both the Warriors and Broncos ended Round 23 with no line breaks according to NRL.com data, and needless to say they were both comfortably beaten. The other two were the Bulldogs in Round 12 v Dolphins and Souths in Round 7 which was coincidentally against the Bulldogs.
HOME SH!T HOME
Newcastle’s loss v Penrith was expected, for many reasons, one of them is they are terrible at home in 2025. It five losses in a row at home now, and their only win in their last ten home games was the infamous booing game. So in effect the crowd won that game, and the coach bugger all either side of it.
But is Newcastle’s 2025 home form historically bad? Well, no. And let’s not forget the Gold Coast Titans are on the same number of wins, they just have played one game fewer at home. So Newcastle’s home record in 2025 isn’t the worst, but is in the bottom ten, and there’s still home games left to driver that win % lower.
But here are some quick home games stats to enjoy.
