JMK out Donga at 9
Kuafusi returns Keeley back to extended bench
Graham named 18th

Still no Saifiti, still no word on Flegler, no Plath. And middle forwards were already our weakness. JMK injured again. He's a really good hooker but just not built to be able to play a long time in the middle. His injuries won't stop for as long as he is in the NRL. We are up against it but hopefully:
  • Dolphins by 4
  • MoM: Katoa
  • First try: Isaako
Both Isaako and Bostock have been down on form.

True for JMK. I haven't been following QLD Cup but don't really know why Woolf doesn't rate Harrison Graham, judging by what I've seen.

I have Harrison Graham in the team before Sean O'Sullivan.

Donga is so valuable as a utility and his absence in the last 2 games been exposed to how important he is to the Dolphins team.

Graham is a much better 9 than O'Sullivan and he played well for Capras last week.

Parramatta with Moses are a borderline top 8 side and were robbed last week vs Sharks who are viewed as a contender.

Moses is the best origin halfback in the current game.

He's improved when coming on as a hooker but starting there will be a huge test for him. I guess SOS will get at least 20min.

He's been improving but is still due for a big one.

I'm not overly confident (unlike last week) in this one. Despite playing a club who has been on a downward spiral for 3 years, this will be a tough match on Commbank stadium soil. They were extremely disappointing last week and another loss tonight will basically seal their fate.

Dolphins by 4
FTS- Hammer
MOTM- Donoghoe.

It was about this time last year when we put that massive score on Parra no one saw coming. Unfortunately it was all downhill after that. With the exception of putting a big score on the Broncos late in the season.

  • Dolphins by 20
  • MoM: Finefuiaki
  • First try: Donoghue

Eels were robbed last week by Sharks who are a pet club of the NRL with referees & bunkers.

Eels always get the rub of the green & some more at Parramatta Stadium.

Moses is a class above.

Dolphins have a poor record in NSW.

Sharks are a pet club of the NRL. Even if they 'were salary cap compliant on GF day', which I don't believe, if they cheatedin order to get to the GF, why wasn't the premiership taken off them?
