Why does their traditional name not allow them to be bigger than the Broncos one day? Are people not from Redcliffe not allowed to buy a membership or enter Suncorp Stadium?
Redcliffe have had their name since the 1940s and for quite a long time played in a first grade comp which is why they are such a famous, strong brand in Brisbane.... You know, the market they rely on for fans...
If they are Brisbane's team then they should call themselves Brisbane and it will mean they get bigger support and crowds.
with Arsenal, Chelsea, Tottenham they split London from the start. There was never 1 massive dominant London club called London FC. If there was and they had a 35 year head start then that club would probably be massive and A,C and T would not be anywhere near as big as they are now.
That’s your opinion.
My fellow Qlders desperately need to get over the fact that it was the Sydney competition that became the National competition.
Would be good to see if the broncos can basically sell out a whole season or even better have the stadium basically sold out with season ticket holders
Well we're a loooong way off topic, but it's the off-season so what the hell. The point you're replying to is that pre-1988, the BRL comp was the primary focus of Qld rugby league fans and media. Redcliffe, Wynnum, Valleys & all got way more local attention and devotion than any Sydney club. Hence the reality that the Redcliffe Dolphins are the established, ingrained, decades old brand. The anything-else Dolphins is a phony marketing ploy.
Hmm, was wondering that. Is the entire Eastern side of Level just members? Bays 518 - 525?
I understood it. It’s irrelevant.
Authenticity is always relevant.
The fact that the RFL hasn’t yet announced the sale of 50k being passed is a little concerning less than 2 weeks out from the game.
How many Aussies will be travelling you reckon? I remember back in the the day there was like tour groups, do they still exist?
I think those tours were more common in the far distant days when overseas travel was a rarity requiring the services of a “travel agent”
My comment has nothing to do with Authenticity.
As well as a celebrated history and continuity of the ashes series both home&away.
