Bennett is given the title of expansion coach expert, yet the Dolphins are out of finals 2 years straight.

Not out of the finals yet technically. In fact they are still inside the 8.

Reaching if you are knocking Bennett here. It's pretty amazing that the Dolphins have been around the 8 for their first two seasons with the squad they have. They have bottom 4 written all over them.

Gilbert and Flegler exposed there depth, but Hammer and Farnsworth are guns.

All rep players. A lot of clubs would be happy for that quartet.

Dolphins are easily bottom 4 both years if anyone but Bennett coaches them.

Wouldn't have attracted any talent without him either.

Can we expect a big drop next year then?

Need to see their top 30 for 2025. Still some movement in the market to come. They need more youth in the pack. Couple retirements will help but you've got to replace them with quality.

Woolf is also a bit of an unknown at NRL level but has served a very long apprenticeship.

I'm guessing a marginal drop. Unless they land some big signings I can't see where the improvement comes from.
