Dolphins' Head of Performance Jeremy Hickmans said he expected Farnworth to miss at least four games, and potentially six.
"It is always difficult to pinpoint timings on hamstring injuries because it does depend a lot on how that injury responds to treatment," said Hickmans.
"But we are hopeful he could be a minimum of four weeks if all goes well, longer if not."
That timeline could allow Farnworth to play in the Dolphins' final home games of the season.
The Dolphins won the match in Auckland 20-18 despite the early loss of Farnworth, which keeps them in eighth spot on the NRL ladder with five games remaining. They play the Roosters this Saturday in a blockbuster at Suncorp Stadium, with the match to kick off at 5:30 pm.
