Jack de Belin has been named in the reserves and is a chance to return from a calf injury, otherwise coach Anthony Griffin has stuck with the same 17 that got smashed by the Sharks last week.

Young gun five-eighth Isaiya Katoa is back on deck after missing last week through injury. He’s joined by Anthony Milford, who retains his spot in the halves, but shifts to the No.7 jersey with Sean O’Sullivan sidelined with a pectoral injury. Sean will be out for around 12 weeks. Jeremy Marshall-King returns from suspension, with Kodi Nikorima dropping to the reserves. Kodi received a nasty head gash last week and needed stiches. Herman Ese’ese also returns. Tesi Niu is out after battling a knee injury last week with Jack Bostock replacing him on the wing. Highly touted youngster Jack Bostock will make his NRL debut on the wing on Saturday, after showing impressive form in this year’s preseason challenge. Bostock has also impressed at representative level, scoring a try in last season’s under-19 state of origin match for NSW. What’s more, he’ll be making his debut at the very ground he played his junior footy at with the Illawarra Steelers. The Dolphins have captured the attention of the rugby league community stunning several sides. As a new start up club this season and coached by Wayne Bennett they are bringing new fans to the game.
PREDICTION.
The Dragons need to respond here at home as the coach Anthony Griffin is in serious danger of losing his job. He has already been told to reapply for next year, if interested, which does not sound very positive to me.
This game will be close, so again look for points here, The Dragons minus 0.5 points @ $1.80 if they scrape in ,but, I am a huge Dolphins fan so for me I am going Dolphins, plus 5.5 points,@ $1.56
