The Dolphins ..2nd year blues or finals

[azif]

What was their overall average home attendance?
Take away pokies and, like a few other NRL clubs, they would be stuffed.
However they did have a very good first year.

26K or something , but they were forced off Suncorp for a while due to the womens soccer so its irrelevant, the 12th placed Dolphins would have surpassed the GF appearing Lions
why would we take away pokies ?.. are they illegal or something ?
AFL clubs have them afterall

so have the lions in the past too

stones in glass houses ?




sounds like excuses to me

It is Rugby League heartland let's not forget - I would suspect a new NRL club would do extremely well - particularly the Dolphins who bring a considerable history to their club. I think the Lion's average is extremely good considering Brisbane is RL through and through - you can't deny they have a considerable and strong base of supporters who actively follow them, I would say more so, than say the Storm havbe in Melbourne. But Storm are doing okay too. Are Lions as big as the Dolphins - maybe not - but it is hard to say given the Dolphins have just entered - but possibly they are - they should be. Are the Lions embedded in Brisbane - definitely - and in a big way. So a win win I think. Maybe the Lions and Dolphins should work together - imagine having a joint membership between the two? I'd like to see the suns and titans do this - think it would be a win win - schedule games so you can go to both. I think the days of the code wars has long since faded and this site - forum remains a lasting relic to days gone by.

the AFL are always making provocative ridiculous statements that inflame the situation , they just aren't as direct as PVL is but
they're the first along with their pissy pants fans to complain when ol PVL has a dig tho , can dish it out

can't take it
thats the AFL

I think V’landys has ramped it up a bit.

you wanna state you're gunna steal our house when we're in Vegas ... of course hes going to

then not actually be able to do it , steal anything
well thats gunna get mentioned

By your rationale, that was not a statement by the AFL, but an official of a club of the AFL, which is not the AFL.

a club owned & run by the AFL you ignorant imbecile

[GlobalRugbyLeague]

Lions second most supported team in Brisbane, great achievement in RL heartland.

Dolphins will struggle on and off the field.
They are not a shiny new thing anymore , so passe

Struggle? They got a great home crowds considering it's at a suburban ground on the weekend knocking St George out of the water. They are still the newest expansion club in both codes playing.

The NRL now have twice the teams as AFL in QLd with a 5th team possible.

well i guess the Phins are answering this question for us

currently leading the NRL with another strong come from behind win over the Titans last night , might not be 1st after the round is complete but will be in the top 4 at worst heading into round 5 , with the Tigers at Suncorp next Sat night & the battle of Brisbane the following week. The town is buzzing NRL atm

[azif]

I guess the prediction by that moron who used to run the AFL that the takeover of QLD was .... imminent

might be a bit premature

ah no knob
the QLD derby was on Friday night , 46K fans in dire weather & probs another 500K watching on TV in the sunshine state
& that many or more will be watching in a few weeks too for the battle of brisbane ...
only game in town in ol brisvegas

[leeroy*NRL*]

cowboys v Broncos was always massive in QLD
but the dolphins v Broncos is shaping in years to come to be even BIGGER

Titans however... they just need to WIN

[Beaussie]

the QLD derby was on Friday night ,

Yeah ok… nevermind the Titans promos for the “derby day”

Crowd - 13,898

[leeroy*NRL*]

[Fred]

again for our slow witted fumbler
the NRL QLD derby was on Friday night & it rendered the fumbles & bumbles GF rematch irrelevant for any Qlder who wasn't a blow in from the south , hardly anyone knew or cared that was on ...
the battle of Brisbane will be bigger again in a few weeks & the only game anyone will be talking about

QLD a fumbler state ?

sure
