Cronulla Sharks vs North Queensland Cowboys Preview
Round 9 kicks off when two 2022 NRL Preliminary Finalists lock horns in the Shire.
The Sharks have returned to action in a similar vein of form to the one which saw them make that Preliminary Final, and a similar result is on the cards in 2023.
They proved too strong for a credible Bulldogs outfit in Round 8 and climbed back into fifth on the ladder.
The Cowboys, meanwhile, have been the biggest disappointment of the league so far.
They did win in Round 8, but it was only their third of the season, and they were probably lucky to get there against the Knights.
I’m happy to kick off the weekend with a simple line bet.
