Gilbert, who was set to be named for Queensland on Monday for his first Origin match in two years, left the field in the 29th minute after he tried to tackle Warriors forward Marata Niukore before he scored a try. The Dolphins skipper, who missed most of the 2023 season with a shoulder dislocation and all of 2024 with an ACL rupture, was seen in the dressing room with ice on his pec and left arm in a sling. The clash at Suncorp Stadium in front of 32,185 fans on Saturday reached flashpoint in the lead-up to Warriors centre Kurt Capewell’s try in the 36th minute. Warriors winger Roger Tuivasa-Sheck, on his own 20m line, clearly knocked on from a bomb but play was allowed to continue with Capewell scoring at the end of the set. Dolphins fullback Tabuai-Fidow was denied a try by the Bunker in the second half. A bomb by half Isaiya Katoa was ruled to have been knocked-on by prop Mark Nicholls before the dashing Dolphin had his effort disallowed, despite an on-field ruling of a try. The Warriors scored in the second half through bench forward Jacob Laban after a a Chanel Harris-Tavita bomb. Tabuai-Fidow and centre Herbie Farnworth crossed late as the Dolphins came roaring home but the Warriors held on after a typically gritty defensive display. Warriors half Luke Metcalf was once again on fire and stood up in the big moments. Kiwi prop James Fisher-Harris was put on report and sin-binned in the 76th minute for a high shot on Dolphins hooker Harrison Graham.
