look at the roster

Do you mean the roster of the schedule?

I mean the pineapple you should stick up your ass.

If anything, it connects them back to their roots.

I`m not 100% convinced with this argument, maybe for the 10 000 or so that can fit into the ground to see them play.
Sure the promo`s and whatever that they are playing locally that week is great, but still only 10k or so are going to see them play. I`d find that frustrating as much as anything.
It`s a similar argument I make against any of the small ground teams, how many fans are you shutting out is what counts.

 

[T-Boon]

But why? I don't think anyone is confused with who they are when they take the field.

There is a Dolphins on their jersey, they wear different colours than 15 of the 16 teams in the competition, there are Dolphin mentions everywhere whenever on TV or in a stadium, why would you risk a $1.25m sponsorship to spell out to people that you're the Dolphins?

There are so many more constructive ways they can build their brand than just slapping a word on their chest.

Well I am sure that is true of Brisbane RL fans. But for example it is going to be confusing in the US if the Dolphins go over there. The fans will think the team name is Kings. Or Melbourne, or NZ, also parts of Sydney
There are a couple of problems with KINGS. One is it sounds a lot like a team name. Two it doesn’t sound like a brand.
I have no idea what the brand is about. Is it King Gee or King chrome tools. Is it a line of clothes.
I find NRL jerseys to be unwearable due to the sponsorships as it is but KINGS crosses the line.

I knew they played a game there a week or two ago but understood that was because of a clash with something else wanting the stadium.
They play at Suncorp. How can you not know that?

People in SEQ know exactly where they're from and what they represent. One of the strongest brands in QLD sport.

And they play most games at Suncorp and a small number at KAYO. Our friend seems not to know this nor can he bothered finding out.

You didn’t know they play at Suncorp. Weirdo.

It bet if you showed a 6 year old in Brisbane the Dolphins jersey and asked them who they are they would say the Kings 9 times out of 10.

Or if they are scheduled to play on a Thursday night or Friday 6pm, Kayo might be a better option. But long term, if the Dolphins grow and become a big club, then they should play all games at Suncorp.

Can you read? Ffs no wonder people here think you’re thick.

It is not a better option though as last year they got 22k against souths on a thursday and this year at least 12k people miss out.
They are already a 'big' club, certainly much bigger than 10k crowds.

I can’t work out why they play any games at Kayo but there must be a method to their madness. It can only be the prohibitive costs for lower attendance games at Suncorp

They are only in their second season. Titans did start off well too. So Dolphins are still a fledgling club at NRL level. But they do have the potential of becoming a "big club".

Not sure whether you're just trolling or if you actually believe what you're writing. Either way, you're incredibly wrong.

Bro why the kings? I dont get it. They've been the Dolphins from day one

Until 10 minutes ago you thought they played all their games at Redcliffe Thick Shake.

I never said that you peanut. Read the thread. Either you are trolling or just stupid. Possibly both

How are the travel times between the Redcliffe region and Suncorp mate.
