    Round 12: Dolphins v Canterbury Bankstown Bulldogs

    Definitely one of their greatest victories in their short history. That is without doubt. Nothing beats the win over the Roosters, but this is a close second or third. My favourite is still the 8 tries in 25 minutes demolition in Darwin. But, last night was huge. It kept them relevant as far as...

    Round 12: Dolphins v Canterbury Bankstown Bulldogs

    Both teams have key players missing and the Dolphins backline looks a hell of a lot less potent without the presence of the Hammer. It could be a wet game which might even things up a bit. I'm anticipating another close one and the Dolphins desperately need to spring an upset here in order to...

    Round 12: Dolphins v Canterbury Bankstown Bulldogs

    I would think both are very unlikely to be named in the lineup today.

    Round 11 vs New Zealand Warriors

    I can't argue with that. A game high 50 tackles plus 97 running metres. He is a really good player in the making.

    Round 11 vs New Zealand Warriors

    Full credit to NZ. The Dolphins basically spent the entire second half in the opposition red zone, but couldn't break the line till the 71st minute. But, I thought the Dolphins were impatient at times which led to their many errors (16). They needed to complete their sets and wait for the...

    Round 11 vs New Zealand Warriors

    A lopsided penalty count and an obvious knock on has thwarted any momentum that the Dolphins may have hoped to have. Maybe that will even up in the second half. The Dolphins have played well, but are up against a very committed side and will struggle to get back into this game. The skipper being...

    Round 11 vs New Zealand Warriors

    Another big game as far as the context of the season goes. In fact, it may possibly determine where this team is headed this year. NZ have won the battle up front in the majority of their games but it hasn't really converted to scoring points. But, unlike traditional Warrior sides, they have...

    Round 11 vs New Zealand Warriors

    NZ sitting in 2nd spot with a 7-2 record but with a f/a of a measly +1. The Dolphins sit ten spots lower on the ladder and are +10. That is mind boggling. The Dolphins are the only team in the bottom nine with a positive f/a. They also have the seventh best offense in the comp. If they ever sort...

    Round 10: Dolphins vs Parramatta Eels

    I'm not overly confident (unlike last week) in this one. Despite playing a club who has been on a downward spiral for 3 years, this will be a tough match on Commbank stadium soil. They were extremely disappointing last week and another loss tonight will basically seal their fate. Dolphins by 4...

    Round 10: Dolphins vs Parramatta Eels

    The season has yet to hit the halfway point, but I consider this game as a "must win". Dropping to 3-7 will leave too big of a hole to climb out of. They almost climbed out of 0-4, but will need to finish at least 9-5 to contend for a playoff spot (if they lose on Thursday). They need to get...

    Injury and suspension updates

    He has already had the surgery performed. Out another 4-6 weeks. Donoghoe and Kafusi will likely be back on Thursday.

    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 Dolphins are the slimmest of favourites, according to Sportsbet.

    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

    KBrom and SOS are now in the 17.

    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.

    Round 8: Dolphins vs Canberra

    Dolphins in huge trouble.
