    Round 2: Dolphins vs Gold Coast

    Yep. Play like that first half against one of the better teams and we'll be at least 18 down.

    Round 2: Dolphins vs Gold Coast

    Kurt Ds passes? That was the case under Wayne but when he filled in the last year, he did really well. But JMK is certainly our best #9 which is a bit of a concern because I don't think he is physically built to play a lot of minutes over a lot of games in the middle.

    Round 3: Dolphins vs Sharks

    Team tips: Tom Flegler left Sunday’s game with a rib injury but coach Kristian Woolf said he was available to return and that the team opted not to pick him back in, so theoretically it sounds like he will be good to go. Woolf did add, however, that the Dolphins will need to see how he fares...

    Round 2: Dolphins vs Gold Coast

    Katoa will be much better when he's getting good passes out of dummy half rather than looping passes up shoulders or down around his ankles.

    Round 2: Dolphins vs Gold Coast

    Maybe. One if my pet peeves is the arbitrary nature of those 6-again rulings. In big games you can be sure Melbourne, Sydney and Broncos get the rub of the green. But that doesn't negate Plath and Schniders very poor dummy half service.

    Round 2: Dolphins vs Gold Coast

    Defence today was good. But really, the service from dummy half or lack of really screwed us up in my opinion.

    Round 2: Dolphins vs Gold Coast

    Plaths defence is first rate. His passing from dummy half isn't good enough. In my view anyway.

    Round 2: Dolphins vs Gold Coast

    Next round vs the Sharks if Kurt D isn't back, and I think JMK is still 3 or 4 weeks away, I think Woolf has to go with Kodi at #9. Plath is a good player but only suitable to play dummy as an emergency for 10~15 min to give Kodi a rest. Schnider can be one of the 6 on the bench but not come...

    Round 2: Dolphins vs Gold Coast

    Titans weren't bad. Not in the first half anyway. A lot of offloads and hard running, making metres. In the second half Herbie and Hammer cut them to pieces.

    Round 2: Dolphins vs Gold Coast

    Herbie and Hammer have been really good.

    Round 2: Dolphins vs Gold Coast

    With the attacking players we have, really should've scored a try or two in that passage of play.

    Round 2: Dolphins vs Gold Coast

    It's true but I just think it's a good indication of how important a good dummy half is. Right from the second tackle, Plath's pass to Finefui of about 2 metres was up behind his shoulder. I don't mean to criticise Plath. I'm a big fan. But he's definitely not a dummy half. Schniders first pass...

    Round 2: Dolphins vs Gold Coast

    I can't pick out any first half standouts but I'll just say our 3rd and 4th choice hookers are not up to standard. If Kurt D isn't back next week, I hope coach goes with Kodi at hooker, Averillo 5/8, Cobbo centre and Naufahu wing.

    Round 2: Dolphins vs Gold Coast

    I'm not overly concerned personally. This is what happens when you have your 2 first choice hookers out.

    Round 2: Dolphins vs Gold Coast

    Honestly I'm a big Plath fan but he isn't a hooker.

    What is Steve Roach talking about. It was a terrible pass up behind his shoulder.
