DOLPHINS

  • Dolphins made it back-to-back successes as they produced a strong display to see off Manly Sea Eagles last week to solidify their spot in the top four.
  • They are performing well despite rumours circulating about the future of head coach Wayne Bennett and they come into this encounter with Queensland representative Hamiso Tabuai-Fidow returning at fullback.

Starting 13: 1. Hamiso Tabuai-Fidow 2. Jamayne Isaako 3. Jake Averillo 4. Herbie Farnworth 5. Jack Bostock 6. Kodi Nikorima 7. Isaiya Katoa 8. Jesse Bromwich 9. Jeremy Marshall-King 10. Mark Nicholls 11. Felise Kaufusi 12. Euan Aitken 13. Kenny Bromwich Bench: 14. Josh Kerr 15. Kurt Donoghoe 16. Ray Stone 17. Connelly Lemuelu Reserves: 18. Trai Fuller 19. Sean O'Sullivan 20. Jarrod Wallace 21. Edrick Lee 22. Oryn Keeley

THE PREDICTION

Wests Tigers are starting to get desperate in their hunt for a victory but their lack of quality in attack could well see them fall short once again. They have lost their last six and now come up against an in-form Dolphins outfit that have won three of their last four. They have had no issues with ball in hand this season and their attacking prowess should ensure that they prevail in this one to make it three consecutive victories.

TIP: DOLPHINS TO WIN
