DOLPHINS VS SYDNEY ROOSTERS –Â SUNDAY 5THÂ MARCH, 4:05PM, SUNCORP STADIUM
Following a woeful trial loss to the Titans, Bennett has made his first big selection call by axing flighty veteran Anthony Milford in favour of five-eighth debutant Isaiya Katoa.
The Dolphins’ backline has a distinct journeyman look with Hamiso Tabuai-Fidow an unproven fullback and Tesi Niu a curious wing pick.
Their strength is in a pack led by ex-Storm trio Jesse and Kenny Bromwich, and Felise Kaufusi.
On paper, the Roosters have one of the best sides in the competition and their loyal fans will be eager to see what new combinations Trent Robinson has come up with during the pre-season.
