Fulltime at Sunshine Coast Stadium, the Eels lose the second half but win the game comfortably.
Jamayne has his second goal of the afternoon.
HAMMER LONG RANGER! He has a DOUBLE!
Moses converts and he's 8/8.
Gutho down the left, he's relentless and finally the Eels have a second half try.
Te Whare to Isaako... try time.... nope. Forward pass.
Makahesi Makatoa has scored - try awarded live by Gough but on review, Moses is ruled to have taken out a Dolphins defender in the lead-up. Phins penalty.
Isaako's conversion attempt hits the post and bounces away.
Right side move and the Eels defence is scrambled, Te Whare steps inside to score the home team's third.
Isaako converts.
THE HAMMER IS UNLEASHED! Comeback on? Long-ranger from the Hammer and the Maroons hero gets the Dolphins' sputtering performance kickstarted.
Entire opening part of this second half has been in the Dolphins' half - Parramatta yet to score as yet though, Dolphins' defence a bit better; just not ideal their handling so far. Completions troubling for them.
Second half begins and the Dolphins have an error in their own half two tackles in. Yikes.
Moses makes it 7/7 and its halftime.
Easy as you like and they hit 40 inside 39 minutes. Russell scores in the corner after just one tackle.
Challenge successful. Hopgood gets a play the ball. Eels attack with 1:16 remaining in the half, 15m from the Phins line.
Captains Challenge. Hopgood ruled to have knocked on with the line open - he's claiming he didn't. Referee Gough not happy with the way he was addressed either.
Sean Russell is nearly trapped in goal but manages to get himself out despite plenty of opposition attention.
Sivo's try won't be granted, his foot has gone out - just.
Sivo crashes over in the corner... checking with the Bunker. On-field call is NO TRY.
Dolphins touch an Eels' pass mid-flight triggering a new set on halfway. Parramatta could make it 40 by halftime.
Moses converts and the clock trails the Eels once more.
Disgraceful defence from the Phins really. Simonsson finds space on the left and evades Hammer to get the Eels' 6th.
Another drop-out forced, Asi kicks for the opposite side, Te Whare ends up with it and is trapped in goal.
Half an hour in and the Eels have as many points. Parramatta force a drop-out and could pick up more points here...
Moses converts and now sits on 999 points for the Eels.
Penisini again! Doesn't need support this time and scores himself, much closer to the posts too.
Mitch Moses makes it 4/4.
Gutherson came away from the try with a right arm complaint. Trainer is with him.
Entertainment plus from the blue and gold - Gutherson finishes off a move down the right edge with Penisini delivering it for him.
Moses nails it from the sideline!
Where there's a Will, there's a try. Big metres and it finishes with Penisini scoring in the corner.
The Dolphins have technically won the challenge, but it's gotten worse for them? The initial ruling of knock on was incorrect, but it turns out SOS was offside so it's actually an Eels penalty.
Time off for a Dolphins Captains Challenge. Claim is Sean O'Sullivan knock on. He's saying he didn't. Could result in a Dolphins scrum 20m out.
Parramatta with a solid attacking set but it comes to nothing, Moses' kick goes dead and its a Dolphins 20m restart.
Moses bangs another over for an eight-point lead.
Hopgood goes through some poor attempts at defending and has the Eels' second.
Maika Sivo is on report for a forearm while in possession.
McGrady very nearly has a debut double but he's tried a flick pass to Kodi Nikorima - who spills it!
Moses bangs it over from in front.
Andrew Davey bursts through, swerve and step and goes under the posts untouched!
Isaako's first attempt of the day is not successful.
ON DEBUT! Brayden McGrady goes over and the Phins draw first blood.
Hammer with a HUGE line break, is ankle tapped by a desperate Maika Sivo around halfway, but he finds Valynce Te Whare before the Phins get close.
Replays show Reagan Campbell-Gillard comes in around the lower leg but there's no punishment. Herman Ese'ese gets up and plays the ball.
Time off. Herman Ese'ese is down with a leg complaint on tackle five of the 'Phins opening set.
Solid metres off the opening set and the kick puts plenty of pressure on fullback Hamiso Tabuai-Fidow, but he takes it.
Peter Gough gets us underway. A bouncing kickoff is trapped between Asi's legs and he picks it up, Eels with it.
CHANGES: Jeremy Marshall-King is OUT for the home team. Sean O'Sullivan makes his long-awaited return at hooker. Plath drops off the bench replaces by Harrison Graham. Parramatta are 1-17 with one exception, Paulo benched and Ogden starts at prop. Dolphins are out onto the field. Hill is packed. Let's get cracking.
Saturday arvo footy on the Sunny Coast. Dolphins in red, Eels in white. Big turning point potentially for both teams. Dolphins on the slide, Eels on the up - will that continue or will fortunes switch?
