Dolphins NRL: The best game photos of 2025
The 2025 NRL season was the Dolphins’ best ever in the competition, despite disruption caused by Tropical Cyclone Alfred and an injury toll that would have decimated less resilient sides.
They showed the character and resilience that is part of their DNA.
The Dolphins, who entered the NRL in 2023, won nine games in their first season, 11 in 2024 and 12 in 2025.
With Head Coach Kristian Woolf at the helm for the first time this year, the team scored more points than any other team by the end of the regular season (721) after a slow start that gave some fans cause for concern.
The Dolphins broke their record for the most points in a game (44) several times in 2025 and finished the year as the NRL’s best attacking side, narrowly missing a maiden finals berth.
It will stoke the fire to play finals footy in 2026.
