Manly is looking to bounce back after a horror collapse last weekend, which saw them give up a 20-0 lead against an inexperienced Raiders outfit.
The loss saw the Sea Eagles drop to fifth on the ladder and they will now take on a gallant Dolphins outfit who leap-frogged them with a win in round nine.
Speaking on Wide World Of Sports’ Six Tackles With Gus, rugby league expert Phil Gould admitted some concerns were coming out of Manly’s most recent effort.
“I can’t get over what happened to them last week,” he said.
“I didn’t see that second half coming, they got themselves in a bit of a rut and couldn’t get themselves out of it.
“I’d imagine that will be a wake-up call to them, but the Dolphins at Suncorp Stadium … that’s a real danger game. Dolphins are in good form.
“They have their moments and they take their moments … they’ve got great athleticism out wide and great creativity with the young half [Isaiya Katoa] and Jeremy Marshall-King directing traffic through the middle.”
The hosts will welcome back star centre Herbie Farnworth for the clash, while Manly will be without hooker Lachlan Croker due to concussion.
