THE TEAM NEWS
DOLPHINS
- Dolphins produced a superb performance on the back of their loss to Brisbane Broncos as they swept aside Parramatta Eels thanks to a stunning second half effort.
- The expansion side scored 40 points after the break to demonstrate their attacking qualities and they have Kurt Donoghoe back in the side for this one after he served a ban.

NEWCASTLE KNIGHTS
- Newcastle Knights were dreadful as they were comfortably defeated by Canterbury Bulldogs last week, leaving them with just one success in their last four matches.
- The Knights struggled on both sides of the ball and to make matters worse, they have lost skipper Kalyn Ponga for a significant period after he suffered a foot injury in that contest.
Starting 13: 1. David Armstrong 2. Greg Marzhew 3. Dane Gagai 4. Bradman Best 5. Enari Tuala 6. Tyson Gamble 7. Jackson Hastings 8. Jacob Saifiti 9. Jayden Brailey 10. Leo Thompson 11. Dylan Lucas 12. Kai Pearce-Paul 13. Adam Elliott Bench: 14. Phoenix Crossland 15. Daniel Saifiti 16. Jed Cartwright 17. Brodie Jones Reserves: 18. Mathew Croker 19. Thomas Cant 20. Jack Cogger 21. Will Pryce 22. Krystian Mapapalangi
THE PREDICTION
Dolphins have lost just one of their last five matches and their ability on the ball is likely to cause many teams problems this season. Newcastle Knights have lost their last two and will need to stop the rot quickly if they are to cause an upset here. They will be without Kalyn Ponga in what is a huge blow to their chances and with the way the Dolphins have performed so far this season, there appears to be only one side that should come out on top at Suncorp.
