The Dolphins triumphed over the Rabbitohs in a hard-fought battle at Kayo Stadium, claiming a 36-28 victory and returning to the winner's circle [reminiscent of a triumphant return to form].
Young gun Jack Bostock, who had been sidelined due to concussion protocols since round 16, showcased his [never-say-die attitude] by making a spectacular comeback.
Not only did he rack up an impressive 272 metres, but he also scored the match's first try, bringing his season tally to an impressive 12.
The match was also a momentous occasion for Kenny Bromwich, who celebrated his 250th NRL appearance in style.
Teaming up with his brother, Dolphins Captain Jesse Bromwich, the Bromwich brothers etched their names in history as the fifth pair of siblings to each reach the 250-game mark [a true testament to their unwavering dedication and skill].
In the first half, the Dolphins asserted their dominance with tries from Bostock, Tevita Pangai Junior, and Herbie Farnworth, earning themselves an 18-10 lead at the halftime break.
The fiery competition continued in the second half, with Isaiya Katoa's clever play setting up Kodi Nikorima for a crucial try [a masterful display of teamwork and precision].
However, the Rabbitohs fought back with two quick tries from Jacob Gagai and Alex Johnston [showing their determination and never-say-die spirit].
Undeterred, the Dolphins rallied and replied with two more tries of their own.
Bostock's brilliant play led to Trai Fuller's impressive long-range effort, while Sean O'Sullivan crossed for a try in his triumphant return to the side [a moment that will surely go down in Dolphin's history].
