Team List Redcliffe Dolphins v NZ Warriors - [Round 8, 2026]

[sydneywarrior92]

Hope there isn't a late change to bring Pompey in- NSW cup team lists can change on a dime. He was given an absolute bath by Herbie last time at MSS. Lucky for him, he broke down after 10 minutes with a season ending injury. A rejuvenation of that match up gives me chills so I hope Webby isn't going down that route.

It's quite fascinating that most of the Phins tries go down Averillo's edge. Seems like Herbie is more of a solo act rather than being part of the phins main attacking shape. So RTS/AKP have a big job on their hands.

Interesting bit of gossip from Billy Slater's podcast: Trey Fuller has been training in the centers. So they might have a late switch with Averllo into 6 and Fuller into the centers.

Herbie is a crazy ‘individual’ talent. Dosent really make the players around him better but can win you the game

That Phins team on paper looks really good

They should be toasted with all the travelling and playing OT in Darwin last week so expect us to get the W but these are the that ends up with pie on our faces

There's also the Penrith factor: teams playing Penrith, win or lose, have lost the next week. Dogs had a shocker last weekend and Melbourne arguably still haven't recovered. The only outlier is the chooks who had the DCE return to Manly the week after to pump them up.

Yeah that’s a good point

We’re also at home, there are worse places than Wellington ie Napier(!).

Absolutely no reason why we shouldn’t walk away with the W. and bank those 2 points
