NRL Tips - Dolphins v Storm - Round 7 2025

The Dolphins made it back-to-back wins with an upset victory over the Panthers last week but it doesn’t get any easier as they host a Storm side that thrashed the Warriors 42-14. The Storm may sit second behind the Bulldogs ion the ladder but are overwhelming favourites to win the premiership following a series of big wins.

It was a slow start to the season for the Dolphins attack with an average of only 11.2ppg through the opening four games. Things have taken a turn for the better in the last fortnight with 30+ points scored in each of the last two.

When we talk about attack this season, the Storm are leaps and bounds ahead of every other team in the competition. They have averaged 36.8ppg in 2025 with an average of 55.6 total match points to date.

The Over has hit in 67% of Storm away games in thee last year with their last two against the Dolphins both producing 54+ total match points.

Ryan Papenhuyzen is back to his best! He scored 5 tries in his first 4 games this season and last week decided to turn provider with three try assists. He’ll get back on the score sheet in this one and will be joined by several other members of the backline.

Coates scored his second double of the season last week and has scored a try in each of his last two NRL games at Suncorp Stadium. with the Storm set to score 5+ tries, it will be a shock if he doesn’t feature.

We were waiting patiently for ‘The hammer’ to explode and the The Dolphins have finally unlocked their biggest weapon. Tabuai-Fidow has a try in his last two games, scored a hat-trick against the Panthers last week, and has a handful of tries in his last 3 games at this ground. he is the top selection for the home side.

Harry Grant has been very eager to run the ball this season and has already crossed for two tries. He also gets a favourable matchup here as the Dolphins have conceded three tries to hookers this season (Koroisau, Da Silva and Paix). With a high scoring game predicted, this contest should open up late and that is great news for Grant who will attempt to find holes through the ruck late in the game.
