Parramatta will welcome the Dolphins to Sydney with the Eels rooted to the bottom of the ladder and looking to climb out of trouble under Jason Ryles' watch.
Newcastle and the Gold Coast are in similar predicaments with the Knights snapping their losing run at Magic Round and the Titans still in the midst of theirs.
South Sydney are also experiencing a tough trot and will hope that the return of Latrell Mitchell from suspension will lift them, despite the mounting injury toll at the club, when they take on a bruised Brisbane.
The Broncos have opted to delay Ezra Mam’s return despite the playmaker serving his ban. There are several key players who are set to return in Round 10 though.
Brian To'o, Dallin Watene-Zelezniak, Jayden Campbell and Jamie Humphreys will provide boosts to their teams, while the likes of Reuben Cotter and David Fifita are sidelined.

The No.7 is partnered in the halves by Jayden Sullivan, while Jye Gray has been shifted to the bench.

Selwyn Cobbo will continue at fullback with Reece Walsh sidelined, while Xavier Willison remains in the backrow with Jack Gosiewski still out with a broken arm.

Tyrell Sloan was poor defensively but has kept hold of his spot on the wing with Christian Tuipulotu and Mat Feagai sidelined.
The likes of Moses Suli and Jayden Su’A will also be hoping to put disappointing performances behind them.
Meanwhile, Lyhkan King-Togia showed promising signs during his NRL debut and has been able to keep Lachlan Ilias out of the side.
Ilias did enjoy a successful time in the NSW Cup though as he bagged a double and provided an assist during his side's 60-26 demolition of the Magpies last week.
One player who has dropped out is Emre Guler after the prop suffered a shoulder injury last week. Flanagan opted to go with youth and picked Loko Pasifiki Tonga as his replacement.

DWZ will play his first game of the season after recovering from a wrist injury he suffered in the trials with his inclusion seeing Edward Kosi drop out.
Rocco Berry suffered a hamstring injury during his side's victory over North Queensland, so in his and Ali Leiataua’s absence Kurt Capewell has been moved into the centres.
As a result of the veteran’s move, Marata Niukore has shifted to the backrow and Jackson Ford has been promoted to start up front.
Samuel Healey was a late addition to the bench last week ahead of Te Maire Martin and was named again after an eye-catching cameo. However, he has since dropped off the pine with TMM replacing him.

This means that Harry Grant remains sidelined after missing the past few weeks with a hamstring strain.
