<p>This will be the Broncos second straight all-Queensland affair under the Friday night lights of Suncorp Stadium.</p> <p>Last week they saw off a spirited Cowboy’s side 26-16 and now turn their attention to another QLD club yet to register a win in 2025.</p> <p>The Dolphins are zip from three to start the new season, with pressure already mounting on rookie coach Kristian Woolf.</p> <p>It goes without saying that they need a result here, but do they have what it takes to upset the bucking Broncos?</p> <p>Let’s find out. Here’s how these two teams will line up this weekend along with some betting tips for the H2H, first try scorer and over/under markets. This is our Dolphins vs Broncos prediction.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <h2>Dolphins vs Broncos Teams</h2> <p>&nbsp;</p> <h3>The Dolphins</h3> <p>1. Hamiso Tabuai-Fidow<br /> 2. Jamayne Isaako<br /> 3. Jake Averillo<br /> 4. Herbie Farnworth<br /> 5. Jack Bostock<br /> 6. Kodi Nikorima<br /> 7. Isaiya Katoa<br /> 8. Daniel Saifiti<br /> 9. Jeremy Marshall-King<br /> 10. Felise Kaufusi<br /> 11. Kulikefu Finefeuiaki<br /> 12. Max Plath<br /> 13. Tom Gilbert<br /> 14. Kurt Donoghoe<br /> 15. Oryn Keeley<br /> 16. Mark Nicholls<br /> 17. Ray Stone</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <h3>Brisbane Broncos</h3> <p>1. Reece Walsh<br /> 2. Selwyn Cobbo<br /> 3. Kotoni Staggs<br /> 4. Gehamat Shibasaki<br /> 5. Jesse Arthars<br /> 6. Ben Hunt<br /> 7. Adam Reynolds<br /> 8. Patrick Carrigan<br /> 9. Cory Paix<br /> 10. Payne Haas<br /> 11. Jack Gosiewski<br /> 12. Jordan Riki<br /> 13. Kobe Hetherington<br /> 14. Billy Walters<br /> 15.

<h2>Dolphins vs Broncos Prediction and Betting Tips</h2> <p>&nbsp;</p> <h3>Head-to-Head Prediction</h3> <p>How good is Payne Haas? Well, good enough to become the first ever front rower to win the Dally M, should he keep this up.</p> <p>His form and figures over the opening three rounds of footy have been otherworldly and last week against the Cowboys he somehow went to another level.</p> <p>The Dolphins will be the latest team tasked to stop him and the Broncos, but after an 0-3 start, all resistance appears futile here.</p> <p>To further Brisbane’s favouritism, they really are the Kings of Queensland when it comes to playing under Friday night lights.</p> <p>They’ve won each of their last eight Friday matches against teams from the Sunshine State.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <p><strong>Betting tip: </strong>Brisbane Broncos.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <h3>First Try Scorer Prediction</h3> <p>Strike centre Kotoni Staggs is set to make his first appearance of the season for Brisbane in this game and we’d be lying if we said he hadn’t piqued our interest.</p> <p>Perhaps that image of him streaking away to score the match sealer in the first meeting between these two is still burnt into our brain, or maybe it’s the “this is our house” celebration that followed. Regardless, we’re backing him to mark his return to first grade with the opening try here.</p> <p><strong>Betting tip: </strong>Kotoni Staggs.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <h3>Over/Under Prediction</h3> <p>Like all proper derbies, this one is usually a bit of a slog. Each of the four previous matches between the Dolphins and Brisbane have gone under the total match points line, which is set at 53.5 points here.</p> <p>On Friday night, as long as the Phins don’t drop their heads, we’re backing this trend to continue.</p> <p><strong>Betting tip: </strong>Under total match points.</p>
<h2>Dolphins vs Broncos Match Details</h2> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><strong>Date: </strong>Friday, March 28, 2025.</p> <p><strong>Kick-off:</strong> 7:00pm AEST.</p> <p><strong>Location:</strong> Suncorp Stadium, Brisbane.&nbsp;</p>
