2026 NRL Grand Final Odds Analysis
The Roosters will head into the 2026 NRL Grand Final as $1.44 favourites after continuing their impressive September run with a 36-20 win over the Dolphins. Sydney have now bounced back from their opening finals loss to Penrith by eliminating Cronulla and the Dolphins, with Sam Walker's return adding another dimension to an attack that has hit top gear.
Newcastle are the $2.85 outsiders, but their route to the decider has been remarkable. The Knights stunned Penrith 22-14 despite playing with 12 men for the entire second half, turning a 14-6 half-time deficit into a famous preliminary-final victory and their first Grand Final appearance in 25 years.
It sets up a Roosters-Knights Grand Final that looked highly unlikely at the start of September. Sydney were $9.00 entering the finals and Newcastle were out at $67.00, but both have survived the elimination route to reach the decider at Accor Stadium.
