It’s hard to pinpoint a team in the past decade that has had a hotter three-game stretch than the Dolphins, who look to continue the run when they play the Knights in Perth.

MATCH CENTRE: Dolphins v Knights score, stats, live blog

The Dolphins have outscored their opponents 158-18 in that span, putting over 50 on the Cowboys and Dragons in their last two.

Gun half Isaiya Katoa has been sensational all season and leads the league in try involvements. The young star is in the frame to be picked for the Blues in Game II given the injury cloud around Nathan Cleary.

Remarkably, the Dolphins started the season 0-4 and were long odds to even make the eight. They’ve since won seven of ten to be a major player in the premiership race.

Their next foe is the hot-and-cold Knights, who are parked near the bottom of the ladder and need a win to keep their season from slipping away.

In good news for Newcastle, fullback Kalyn Ponga is expected to back up from Origin II.
