I said that and that the third year will tell.
I also said this is the year the Dolphins support will reduce.
The end of the year cometh.

i dont get what is so funny ??
they play it at Suncorp they most likely get beyween 25k and 30k for the 1st home game.
they play it at the there Very own HOME Stadium which they own with leagues club
and they make a fair chunk of money..
it proves the NRL is not Crowd Focused.
So it is money focussed, not fan focussed?
All those extra fans that could have gone to Suncorp miss out because of money?

The Phins are engaging their traditonal area ( redcliffe , moreton bay ) which is 40kms & an hour from Suncorp stadium
& building a fan base on the Sunshine coast which is further north again
& it seems to be working just fine
Fumblers should stick to worrying about their failing franchises in QLD , maybe get a few tips from the Dolphins on how to successfully run a professional sports club

Aren’t the dolphins meant to have an endless supply of money ? Why can’t they build or expand their stands - at double the size ? Are there plans for them to do so - may Eve. And up paying for itself with the extra revenue it would bring in ?

the extra 10K seats at HBF are going to cost 280 million fwed ,
why would the Phins go into that amount of debt , for 10K extra seats , for the 2 games a year they play at Kayo which would get them about an extra 500K a year .... see the ROI there fwed ?
I'd suggest you to not tell the Dolphins how to suck eggs , they're doin juuuussttt fine
We will leave unserviceable debts & financial mismanagement to you fumblers eh ?

Its amazing that **** premiers from QLD , after 6 GF's & 4 premierships this century ... still struggle to keep the electricity on
while the NRL's newest club from QLD is a financial powerhouse & its wealth is growing

The end of the year cometh.
3rd year will prove nothing..
3 losses from 3 games
1st home game moved interstate.
1st home game played at 10k capacity..
your measuring there success on crowds when everything is not about crowds.
Dolphins play a few games at there traditional Home per year.
and play rest at Suncorp,
alot of NRL clubs play at smaller stadiums. even knowing they can produce bigger crowds at other venues.
its called HOME GROUND ADVANTAGE (something you Melbournians do not understand
and the only folk in the world that do it how Melbourne does it..

According to your previous diatribes AFL memberships mean nothing….but NRL memberships suddenly do? Interesting!….not really, expect nothing else from you.

AFL - Essendon vs Port Adelaide
Crowd: 25,114 at Marvel Stadium
NRL - South Sydney vs Penrith
Crowd: 10,029 at Accor Stadium
Gees what’s the go with that very poor crowd for the Rabbitohs vs the premiership Panthers in Western Sydney? NRL heartland with the GWS Giants getting bigger crowds than these long established RL clubs. lol

So what I said 3 years ago, now that it may partly be accurate, means nothing…that is not what you said at the time.
I do admit, and have previously, that the Dolphins did do better than I expected…that may have been due to the coach factor.
