Sydney Roosters Equal Favourites Despite Losses

NRL 2027 premiership betting odds revealed: Roosters back-to-back chance, Perth red-hot wooden spoon favourites

Sportsbet has priced Perth Bears at $2 to finish last in their first season, making them the clear wooden-spoon favourites for 2027.

Wests Tigers and Gold Coast Titans are next at $10, followed by Canberra Raiders and North Queensland Cowboys at $13.

At the other end of the market, Penrith Panthers and Sydney Roosters share premiership favouritism at $6.

Penrith's odds come with uncertainty over Nathan Cleary's fitness, while the Roosters have lost Mark Nawaqanitawase to rugby union and Daniel Tupou to retirement.

The Dolphins are $8.50 for the title, with Melbourne Storm and South Sydney Rabbitohs at $9. New Zealand Warriors are $12, Newcastle Knights $14 and Brisbane Broncos $15.

Canterbury Bulldogs and Cronulla Sharks are each $26, while St George Illawarra Dragons are $34 after comfortably claiming the 2026 wooden spoon.

Bookmakers expect North Queensland Cowboys, priced at $41 for the premiership, to fall away after reaching this year's finals.

Perth are the shortest spoon option, while Sydney Roosters are the longest at $101. Penrith are $81 and the Dolphins $71.

Eight teams are below $20 for the spoon, including Manly Sea Eagles and Dragons at $17, and Parramatta Eels at $15.
