Rugby league legend Brad Fittler is predicting a major NRL upset at Suncorp Stadium in round 12.
He says master coach Wayne Bennett will ambush his former apprentice Craig Bellamy when the Dolphins and Storm meet for the first time.
The Dolphins have shocked the competition by winning six of their first 10 games in the top league, the same number of wins Melbourne has.

The expansion team has done so thanks to the help of some former Storm players – Jesse and Kenny Bromwich, as well as Felise Kaufusi – and despite the face the Dolphins missed the signature of superstar five-eighth Cameron Munster.
Munster and Bennett have reportedly not spoken since the snub, and Andrew Johns is predicting a blockbuster reunion on Saturday.
“This could be a good rivalry because of all the Storm players (defecting to Dolphins),” Johns told Wide World of Sports.
“What happened with Munster and Wayne Bennett (as well). I think the Storm will make a statement.”

Fittler disagreed, believing Bennett will mastermind an upset over Bellamy’s Storm.
“Why don’t we pick the Dolphins? How many times do you reckon you’ve picked the Dolphins this year?” Fittler asked.
“I’m going to go the Dolphins.”
