Preview:
The Dragons have gotten home by the barest of margins in the past two weeks, with Corey Norman field goals accounting for all four of their competition points this season. They head into this round five clash agains the Dogs at the shortest price they have been all season, as they look to make it three wins in a row. Korbin Sims’ broken arm means Luciano Leilua gets a spot on the bench, with Tyson Frizell starting this weekend. Dylan Napa’s ankle injury sees the Dogs also make a change in the forwards, as Ofahiki Ogden starts. Canterbury played a brilliant first half in Melbourne a week ago, before a chance to take the game into golden point fell by the wayside as the usually reliable Rhyse Martin missed a last minute conversion. The Dogs have owned this fixture in recent times, winning 7 of 8, including a resounding 38-0 win in round 24 a season ago. The Wolf sees the resurgent Canterbury brigade as in with a big chance of an upset on Sunday, especially at the line.
