\n

Our best bet for Sunday’s NRL Round 20 clash between the Dolphins and North Queensland Cowboys is the Dolphins -3.5 \/ Over 44.5 \/ Cobbo 1st, 2nd, or 3rd Same Game Multi at $8.00, with the Dolphins expected to bounce back strongly at Suncorp after last week’s historic 66-0 defeat.<\/p>\n

The Dolphins look to bounce back from a historic loss when they host the Cowboys at Suncorp on Sunday evening in the final match of NRL Round 20.<\/p>\n

Dolphins vs North Queensland Cowboys<\/h2>\n

These two sides sit dead level on the NRL ladder, seventh and eighth, each with 10 wins and 24 points for the season.<\/p>\n

The elephant in the room is that the Dolphins come into this clash off the back of a 66-0 drubbing at the hands of the Sharks last weekend, the heaviest defeat in their club’s history.<\/p>\n

North Queensland, meanwhile, have bagged two good wins, tipping over the competition’s top side Penrith before edging out the Sea Eagles last Sunday.<\/p>\n

Leg 1 – Dolphins -3.5<\/h3>\n

Expect the home side to put last weekend’s horrors behind them and present a far better brand of football here.<\/p>\n

While all of their struggles can’t be put down to Origin absences, they do receive Hamiso Tabuai-Fidow, Jack Bostock and Selwyn Cobbo back, which will do wonders for their attack.<\/p>\n

They’ve owned this head-to-head in recent years, winning four straight against the Cowboys including six weeks ago when they won 40-14 on the road.<\/p>\n

Leg 2 – Over 44.5 Points Total<\/h3>\n

Both teams have lethal attacks, and as the Dolphins showed last week, are susceptible to leaking points.<\/p>\n

Seven of the Dolphins’ last nine matches have seen 44 or more points scored, while the Cowboys have had 10 such games so far this season.<\/p>\n

Leg 3 – Selwyn Cobbo 1st, 2nd, or 3rd Tryscorer<\/h3>\n

Cobbo is a key finisher for the Dolphins, with 10 tries from 12 matches in 2026, including eight in his last five.<\/p>\n

Last time these sides met, the big winger crossed over inside the first five minutes. Expect the hosts to get him involved early once more.<\/p>\n

Same Game Multi<\/h2>\n

Dolphins -3.5 \/ Over 44.5 \/ Cobbo 1st, 2nd, or 3rd = $8.00 <\/a> <\/strong><\/p>\n

Value Bet<\/h2>\n

Burns is also scoring at a healthy clip this season, picking up 12 tries from 13 matches so far.<\/p>\n

Playing out on the wing he’s been a focal point of the Cowboys’ attack, and has been rewarded with four doubles already in 2026, three of which have come in his last four matches.<\/p>\n

Given how vulnerable the Dolphins looked on defence last week, Burns should see opportunities down the edge on Sunday.<\/p>\n
