Dolphins Team List: Pre-Season Challenge v Warriors
The Dolphins head south to Leichhardt Oval for their second Pre-Season Challenge, taking on the Warriors as preparations for 2026 continue to build.
Fresh from All-Stars duties, Trai Fuller returns in the No.1 jersey. Jake Averillo shifts back into the centres, lining up alongside Herbie Farnworth in a dangerous pairing.
For the first time, fans will see Farnworth and Selwyn Cobbo combine on the left edge in Dolphins colours.
In the halves, Kodi Nikorima slots back in alongside captain Isaiya Katoa.
New recruit Brad Schneider starts at hooker, with John Fineanganofo providing impact from the bench when called upon.
Up front, leadership is locked in with Tom Gilbert captaining the side alongside Katoa.
And ready to make a statement off the bench, Tevita Naufahu, Thomas Flegler and Kulikefu Finefeuiaki.
