It is hard to look past the performance that the Dolphins had before their bye, blowing the Bulldogs out of the water with a 44-6 victory. Kristian Woolf’s side do need to discover their consistency from week-to-week and they will build on that against the Dragons. 

St George sit in the top 8, albeit with a negative 5-6 record which is not so flattering. They have put together two consecutive wins, however that has been against two opponents that are well out of form. 

We have seen a few times now what the Dolphins attack can do when it is on song and I expect another fiery performance this week in Brisbane. The edges on both sides have been striking but getting over double your money for Herbie Farnworth to score, considering he hasn’t been stopped in 7 matches feels like a steal.

  • The home team has won 13+ in all 4 matches between the Dolphins and Dragons
  • 4 of 5 Dolphins victories have been by a 13+ margin in 2025.
  • The Dolphins have averaged 29.75 points in their last 8 matches
  • Herbie Farnworth has scored in 6 straight games.

Head to Head

The Dolphins put on a show, racking up 44 points on the league-leading Bulldogs before their bye, getting a 36-point win against Canterbury, even without their biggest attacking weapon Hamiso Tabuai-Fidow in the line up.

It was a dominant first half performance of the Dolphins, who won 61% of the territory which led to a 14-6 halftime lead. However all the hard work that Canterbury had to do in the match before the break opened up their defence in the second half with the Dolphins breaking the Bulldogs line 5 times and scoring 5 tries.

All of the Dolphins wins have been on the back of quality territory (4th in NRL) which has played to their strengths in defence.

The Dragons find themselves in the top 8 after a commanding win against Newcastle 20-6 in Round 13. Three tries in the first half was enough to get on top of the comps worst attacking team, with the Knights only breaking the Saints line in the 70th minute.

Despite the flattery of being in finals contention at the moment, the Dragons have a lot to work on and are not likely to be sitting in the eight come September. 

St George ranks 10th or worse in all key statistical aspects in attack, besides linebreaks and those stats mirror exactly on the defensive side of the ball.
