Last week, the Dolphins proved they can still get it down without star fullback Hamiso Tabuai-Fidow, smashing the Eels in Darwin.

Can they repeat a similar performance when they host the Knights on Sunday?

Dolphins vs. Newcastle Knights tips and prediction

'The Hammer' remains out for the Dolphins, but the Knights will also be without their No. 1 in Kalyn Ponga.

Newcastle were terribly flat last week against the Bulldogs and will need to mentally refresh if they are to win away at Suncorp. 

Concerningly for the Knights, they are letting in more points as the season progresses, and appear to lack some on-field chemistry.

If the Dolphins get close to the level they reached last round, they should be able to comfortably outscore their opposition.

Our prediction: Dolphins by 10 points
