The result? A resounding 40-10 victory to the Roosters.</p> <p>That coupled with the fact that they enter this one fully rested and are yet to taste defeat this season and it’s almost impossible to side with the Sharks on Saturday.</p> <p><strong>Head-to-head prediction:&nbsp;</strong><a href="https://www.sportsbet.com.au/betting/rugby-league/nrlw/sydney-roosters-women-v-cronulla-sharks-women-9646179">Sydney Roosters Women.</a></p> <p><strong>Betting tip: </strong>SGM – Jayme Fressard first try scorer and Roosters 13+.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <h2>Brisbane Broncos Women vs Newcastle Knights Women Prediction</h2> <p><em><strong>Sunday, September 28, 1:15pm AEST – Suncorp Stadium</strong></em></p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>This weekend’s second NRLW Preliminary Final will be the first of two for the Broncos on Sunday.</p> <p>How does that work?
