A huge game in the context of our season. Saifiti and JMK will be back. I'd say we are a very good chance. It probably won't be after this round but wouldn't it be something to go equal with the Broncos and then overtake? Given all the hype about them in the pre-season and the way our chances were dismissed.

NZ sitting in 2nd spot with a 7-2 record but with a f/a of a measly +1. The Dolphins sit ten spots lower on the ladder and are +10. That is mind boggling. The Dolphins are the only team in the bottom nine with a positive f/a. They also have the seventh best offense in the comp. If they ever sort out their defensive issues, they would be a very imposing team. Despite their good start to the season, NZ are vulnerable and I'm confident the Dolphins can grab a win here.

I look at that stuff all the time. I believe that due to draws and fairness of draw (because we don't all play each other twice), there is almost a false economy when it comes to the ladder.

I look at for and against to see how a team is going rather than ladder position early in the season. I find those lower down with a good for and against tend to rise later. I mean wins are the ultimate guide obviously, but you see anomalies when he comes to a team traveling well, but getting pipped every now and again.

Dolphins will get JMK and Saifiti back but Warriors will also get Fischer-Harris and RTS back.

Is it possible at least Saifiti will be a late inclusion? He was supposed to on the verge of coming back last week.

No chance, he hasn't been named in the 22 so can't be a late inclusion
