Brisbane Broncos vs Dolphins Preview

The sixth edition of the Brisbane derby shapes as a pivotal clash, with both sides battling to keep their seasons on track. The Broncos, now sixth, have seen top-four hopes dented by injuries to Adam Reynolds, Ezra Mam and Selwyn Cobbo, leaving Ben Hunt and Billy Walters to form a new halves pairing. They were outclassed 22-2 by the Storm last week, compounding a patchy run of form.

The Dolphins, sitting eighth, are also reeling after a record 64-12 thrashing from the Roosters, their heaviest defeat in three NRL seasons. Kenny Bromwich returns to bolster the pack, but Herbie Farnworth’s absence continues to blunt their attack.

Brisbane hold a 4-1 head-to-head edge, including a 20-12 win in Round 4, while the Dolphins’ lone derby triumph came via a 40-6 demolition late last year. With both spines under scrutiny, expect a tight, low-scoring contest with finals ramifications.
