    Round 9: Dolphins vs Sydney Roosters

    Plenty of soul when they were the hottest team in the comp for 3.5 games. The Dolphins are the NRL'S newest club and building a consistent team takes time. They are a team who desperately need their full squad available as depth takes years to build. They'll be just fine. They will make some...

    Round 9: Dolphins vs Sydney Roosters

    The Roosters are hard to read this year. They have a significant injury toll, but have surprised many with a couple of their performances. But, with a very inexperienced lineup, they really have no business competing in most games. The Dolphins have their own injury concerns (as per usual) and...

    Round 9: Dolphins vs Sydney Roosters

    SOS has never been a regular on any team. Injuries have played a part in that, but so has the fact that he just isn't good enough to be a #1 HB on any team. A good club man and a depth option (when options are slim) and nothing more.

    Round 9: Dolphins vs Sydney Roosters

    The Roosters have their injury concerns as well with Nat Butcher being added to the list. I like the Dolphin's chances in this one. Back at home with a few of their troops returning and stinging from last week. It all points to a strong performance from the Peninsula boys.

    Round 8: Dolphins vs Canberra

    All fun and games till the opposition outscores you 30-0 in the second half. It's part of the learning process. Their injury toll really stung today.

    Yep, he has been enormous. 25 tackles chalked up already.

    Round 8: Dolphins vs Canberra

    Hopefully Saifiti's shoulder isn't too bad. He did say that "his shoulder is fucked" after scoring that try. He ran for 118 mtrs. A monstrous performance. Finefeuiaki (109) has also been tormenting them on that R edge. The Dolphins are lethal today. It could be a big scoreline if the trend...

    2025 Squad

    Dave Brown and Reg Gasnier deserve mentions as well. They could be possibly be the two best. Their strike rates were incredible. Brown had a troubled life as he struggled with alcoholism and Gasnier was part of that iconic side of the 50's and 60's.

    Round 8: Dolphins vs Canberra

    The Dolphins have shocked the RL world with three improbable lop sided victories after starting a paltry 0-4. Another big test today. Canberra have a terrific group of forwards who are physical and tend to bash the opposition into submission. They can also implode as well. If the Dolphin backs...

    Round 8: Dolphins vs Canberra

    It's going to be a big ask. Playing in Canberra is a tough gig for full strength sides.

    Round 8: Dolphins vs Canberra

    Rumour has it is that Plath will unlikely suit up on Sunday. Donoghoe will probably slot in. Graham not named for the Capras this weekend. Might be injured or been dropped to the competition below them. His career is in serious limbo.

    Round 8: Dolphins vs Canberra

    How did Plathy go from wearing a moon boot on Friday night and looking at possibly a couple months out to being named in the lineup for Sunday? How did that happen? He heals faster than the Terminator. I'm not complaining though. His presence is required if they are any chance at a playoff berth.

    Injury and suspension updates

    He got it from one of the many pages that he scrolls through. Plathy can't even see a specialist till Tuesday. The extent of the injury will be known then. 2-6 weeks is best case scenario.
