My Prediction
Dolphins by 5You all have your thinking caps on, right? Great, let's do this. Next up on deck are the Dolphins and South Sydney Rabbitohs in what promises to be a colossal clash. We're in round 17 now, with only ten more before we move into finals territory.
Not that either of these teams have shown particularly compelling finesse in their season so far. Currently, the Rabbitohs are sitting disappointingly at number 16, like an uninvited guest at a posh dinner party, while Dolphins are nostalgically looking in from outside at place 9.
While their regular-season records don't inspire a lot of confidence either (Rabbitohs at 6-9 and Dolphins at 7-8), it's a bit like choosing between moldy cheese and stale bread, isn't it?
Let's glance back at their past matchups. Their last was a tight affair with the Rabbitohs just clinching a victory. But folks, if we were in the business of sentimentality, we'd be poets and not sports analysts.
The Dolphins have recently shown their mean streak, especially that brilliant belting they gave the North Queensland Cowboys. The Rabbitohs? Well, their recent form is more like a roller coaster ride that's fun for nobody.
In the end, although it feels a bit like betting on rain in a desert, I'd have to lean towards the Dolphins who look slightly more likely to turn a stumble into a strut. But remember, in the immortal words of some wise guy, "A prediction is just a fancy guess." So, don't bet your house unless you're pretty fond of the streets.
