Dolphins vs Roosters | NRL Live Stream | Preliminary Final - 2026

Just one win away from a maiden NRL Grand Final in only their fourth season, the Dolphins host the Sydney Roosters at Suncorp Stadium on Friday night in a blockbuster preliminary final. The Dolphins enter the clash riding an eight-game winning streak, most recently producing a comeback 26–16 qualifying final victory over the Warriors in Auckland to earn a week off and their first home preliminary final. The Roosters took the longer road after falling to the Panthers in their qualifying final, but responded emphatically with a 46–10 demolition of the Sharks on Saturday — the most points scored by the Roosters in a finals match in club history. Sydney receives a huge boost with Sam Walker returning at halfback. His inclusion sees Daly Cherry-Evans shift back to five-eighth, Hugo Savala move to the bench and Toby Rodwell drop out of the side. The Dolphins make just one change to their squad, with veteran Felise Kaufusi included on the extended interchange in place of Tevita Naufahu, who was unused against the Warriors a fortnight ago. The matchup has belonged to the Dolphins in 2026, with Kristian Woolf’s side thrashing the Roosters 48–10 in Round 15 before completing the regular-season sweep with a 26–12 victory in Round 26. Now, the stakes couldn't be higher — the winner advances to the 2026 NRL Grand Final.
