16’ Cowboys strike

By Nick Campton

Drinkwater gets into first receiver, he dishes it out to Sutton and the rookie throws a lovely backhanded pass to Taulagi to score in the corner!

Great reply from them Cows, Clifford can’t convert but this game is alive.

7’ Cobbo goes all the way

By Nick Campton

The Cowboys are on the attack, Clifford goes to the line and throws it out the back, it’s on the ground and Cobbo picks it up, he’s off, Chester chases him all the way but Cobbo has the pace!

What a try! Isaako converts and it’s 6-0 Dolphins.

4’ Cowboys hold on

By Nick Campton

A six again following a big run from Flegler gives the Dolphins a set restart but they can’t crack the home side. In the ensuing set a big run from Taumalolo earns the Cowboys a penalty and they’re on the attack.

Tips

By Nick Campton

I really like the Phins for this one. They’re high on confidence and the Cowboys are looking a little sluggish as they wait for their first bye.

Let’s go Phins 34-18 with Jeremy Marshall-King to score first.
