Parramatta Eels vs Dolphins Preview
Parramatta aims to continue their momentum after a crucial win over the Cowboys, led by makeshift halves Dylan Brown and Daejarn Asi. Rookie back Blaize Talagi joins the bench for the Eels. Meanwhile, the injury-hit Dolphins face a tough challenge after losing Hamiso Tabuai-Fidow in their last match. Isaiya Katoa’s progress in the No.7 is a positive for the Dolphins, who bring in Trai Fuller at fullback and Max Plath at lock. Despite being underdogs, the Dolphins have shown resilience. However, with the Eels’ historical success in Darwin and their recent form, they’re favored to win. Expect a low-scoring affair, considering past matchups in Darwin and the Dolphins’ recent trend of night games going under.
