The Dolphins NRLQ Under 20 team is set to compete in Round 3 against the Broncos this Sunday at 12:15 PM at BMD Kougari Oval.
After a strong start in the series, the Dolphins aim to maintain their unbeaten status, though the lineup has seen five changes.
Head Coach Scott Murray will be without Queensland Under 19 representative Zac Garton but will welcome back another state rep, Kilarney Lavender, who will team up with Jac Finigan in the second row.
Halfback Noah Fien is back in the lineup after missing Round 2, prompting Brooklyn Sabine to move to five-eighth, while Lachlan Buchbach shifts to the interchange bench.
Elijah Rasmussen will make his NRLQ debut as a front-row starter, bringing valuable experience from his time in the Dolphins' full-time NRL training group and the Capras HostPlus cup side.
Additionally, Mereki Warradoo will make his debut on the left wing, and Joshua Nilon will join the squad as a bench forward.
Overall, the Dolphins are looking to build on their recent success while integrating new players into the lineup for this pivotal matchup.
