Dolphins Seek Turnaround in Darwin Showdown
17 Apr
Summary
- Dolphins coach focuses on reducing errors and penalties.
- The team seeks improvement after a significant loss.
- Dolphins will play annual home game in Darwin for three seasons.

The Dolphins are gearing up for a challenging Round 7 clash against the Penrith Panthers in Darwin, seeking to recover from a disappointing performance. Coach Kristian Woolf has identified ill-discipline, characterized by numerous errors and penalties, as the primary reason for the team's struggles. He emphasized the need for a significant change in this area to improve their chances of success.
This upcoming game is the first of a three-season agreement for the Dolphins to play an annual home game at TIO Stadium in Darwin. Woolf believes the hot and humid conditions, similar to those experienced in pre-season training in southeast Queensland, will be advantageous for his team against visiting NRL opponents. The Dolphins have a positive past record in Darwin, having defeated the Eels there in 2024.
