The 2024 Newcastle Knights season was the 37th in the club's history. Coached by Adam O'Brien and captained by Kalyn Ponga, they competed in the NRL's 2024 Telstra Premiership, finishing the regular season in 8th place, thus reaching the finals but were knocked out after losing to the North Queensland Cowboys in week 1.

The 2025 Dolphins season will be the Dolphins club's third season. The previous year's assistant coach Kristian Woolf succeeds Wayne Bennett as head coach.
