Round 15 of the NRL season continues on Friday night with the Dolphins hosting the Sydney Roosters at Lang Park. Both teams are under strength given their heavy State of Origin representation, but the Tricolours will hand an NRL debut to young gun Rex Bassingthwaighte. Bassingthwaite, a former schoolboy rugby star, was man of the match in this year's SG Ball grand final and has been earmarked as the long-term replacement for Roosters skipper James Tedesco.
