Dolphins Team List: Round 9 v Roosters

The festival of Rugby League that is Magic Round is back once again, with the Dolphins set to take on the Roosters in the opening night's primetime slot this Friday, 8:05 PM at Suncorp Stadium.

The Dolphins will be missing hard-running prop forward Daniel Saifiti, who has been ruled out due to a dislocated shoulder he sustained in last week's loss in Canberra.

In Saifiti's absence, Felise Kaufusi will make his return from injury. The veteran forward and Dolphins Vice Captain had been sidelined with a knee injury since Round 7. 

Kaufusi will partner Frank Molo in the front row, having retained his spot after making his club debut last week. 

Jeremy Marshall-King has been named at hooker, having recovered from an infection to a large gash on his thigh that previously ruled him out for two weeks. 

Additionally, Kurt Donoghoe has been selected on the interchange bench, providing extra depth and utility for Kristian Woolf's side.

The Fijian international is expected to share dummy half duties with Marshall-King during the match.

Kenny Bromwich has been named as 18th man.
