    Round 15 vs Sydney Roosters

    Both teams heavily affected by Origin, but the Dolphins look much stronger on paper. That is quite incredible for a 4th year side when comparing it to a powerhouse organisation. Bennett/Woolf have helped build a very formidable club of the future. The Roosters are missing three quarters of their...

    Round 15 vs Sydney Roosters

    Depending on how the rest of the season goes, Knowles might head home after a year. He wouldn't be the first Brit to cut short his contract. He has been solid the past 2-3 games, but the Dolphins are much more lethal with Donga or Plath assuming the lock position.

    Round 15 vs Sydney Roosters

    Keeley joins Melbourne in '27. S'ua can't stay healthy long enough to make a determination on him. I'd say he gets lost in the shuffle somewhere.

    Round 14: Dolphins vs NQ Cowboys

    Yep. Bostock, Lemuelu, Isaako, Plath, Kotoa, Gilbert also had strong games.

    Round 14: Dolphins vs NQ Cowboys

    A big win on the road v a quality team in '26. The Dolphins on the charge to something special. 3 Donoghoe 2 Cobbo 1 Nikorima.

    Round 14: Dolphins vs NQ Cowboys

    57% possession and 400 more running metres (Cobbo 208). If this keeps up, the Dolphins will run away with it. They look dangerous with ball in hand.

    Round 14: Dolphins vs NQ Cowboys

    Most likely the strongest lineup the Dolphins have fielded in their short history. Jake Averillo may have slotted in there somewhere, if not for injury. The Cowboys have surprisingly started well (8-5) and guys like Drinkwater, Chester and Purdue can hurt you. But, they looked pretty ordinary...

    Round 12: Dolphins vs Canberra Raiders

    A win tonight followed by the bye and with a healthy +/- would be the ideal scenario heading into the second half of the season. Unfortunately, the odds are very long on that happening on a cold night in Canberra with half our squad missing due to Origin and injury. The '25 minor premiers have...

    Round 12: Dolphins vs Canberra Raiders

    Massive loss along with all the others. The task tomorrow tonight has become almost impossible.

    Round 12: Dolphins vs Canberra Raiders

    Yep, and Young and Strange picked for NSW. That certainly evens it up a bit.

    state of origin

    Plath, Finefeuiaki, Flegler, Hammer and Cobbo all selected for Origin. That is quite the club representation. The depth will certainly be tested.

    Round 11: Dolphins vs South Sydney

    He's not past it, but he's close to it. A better game from him last night, even though he still gave away a couple of P/RI and made a handling error. The bench prop role consisting of about 35 mins per game suits him best.

    Round 11: Dolphins vs South Sydney

    Knowles is gradually improving, but he has a long way to go. The Dolphins look a lot more dangerous when Plath is manning the lock position.

    Round 11: Dolphins vs South Sydney

    3 Plath 2 Katoa 1 Knowles A really good victory in tough conditions v a quality side. Knik is a big loss though, and one that will sting.

    Round 11: Dolphins vs South Sydney

    A pretty big test tonight against a Souths outfit who have the second best offense in the comp. But, on the flipside, the Dolphins have only surrendered 16 ppg since that horror show v Manly. Souths do have their weaknesses in their defensive line and the Dolphins do have the capabilities to...

    Round 10: Dolphins vs Canterbury

    Two wins in a row (and a decent +/-) and all of a sudden, the Dolphins find themselves in 9th. A couple more wins and they'll be firmly in the top 8. Things can change in a hurry.

    Round 10: Dolphins vs Canterbury

    3 Knik 2 Isaako 1 Plath.

    Round 10: Dolphins vs Canterbury

    The Dolphins are pretty heavy favourites in this one due to the opposition displaying some really poor form atm. I'm not totally convinced though and I think the home side will have to work really hard to come out on top. It's a big game and vital for the Dolphins if they are going to be any...

    Round 10: Dolphins vs Canterbury

    He hasn't been dropped. He is still struggling with his hammy. This may affect him the entire season.

    Another 42-38 scoreline. Is anyone concerned with the modern state of the game? I remember a time when we used to poke fun at the Super League and Super 12 Rugby for their high scorelines. The NRL has well and truly surpassed them. I realise the sport is evolving to suit the modern day RL...
