Interesting, they were advertising a 2 game membership at Sunny Coast until recently, maybe the deal with the local council has fallen through? That membership is no longer available. They've also dropped the stand alone Redcliffe 3 games membership and now you can only buy a 10 game membership if you want to see the games at Dolphin stadium.
I guess supply and demand, they must think the Dolphin stadium games will be in high demand and I suppose its one way of pushing northern folk to buy suncorp games if that's the only way of seeing them at Dolphin stadium?
Rockhampton would make sense given the Capras link up, but end of day it will be wherever pays otherwise they may as well play them at Redcliffe or Suncorp.

Marquee, on a hell of a different levelIt's not the link, but it is most likely the same story.
Folau's new home sparks NRL return speculation as club speaks out
The NRL have previously stated they will consider a registration application for Folau.
Controversial code-hopping star Israel Folau is reportedly set to build a new house just two kilometres from the Dolphins new training base in Redcliffe, but the club insist he will not be finishing his career with the expansion franchise.
The Dolphins have been steadily building out their squad for their first NRL season in existence, with players beginning pre-season under super coach Wayne Bennett in recent times.
Star outside back Hamiso Tabuai-Fidow and ex-Wests Tiger Oliver Gildart have been the club's latest signing to bump up a backline which also features Jamayne Isaako, Euan Aitken, Edrick Lee, Brenko Lee, Robert Jennings and young gun Valynce Te Whare, who set the QLD Cup alight during the 2022 campaign.
While there is little doubt a player like Folau could slot straight into the side, there is still the question of the NRL registering any such contract given his controversial actions off-field previously.
ARLC chairman Peter V'Landys has previously stated that any registration attempt would be considered though, and with Newscorp reporting that Folau is building a house just two kilometres from the club's training base, speculation has been fueled.
However, club chairman Terry Reader said the club have not spoken to Folau or his management.
“I'm not surprised Israel might be building a house in Redcliffe,” Dolphins boss Reader said.
“As some of our new signings have already found out, it is a great place to live, only 20 minutes from the airport and 30 minutes from Brisbane's CBD.
“However, the Dolphins have not spoken to Israel or his management and he is not in our plans.”
Folau, who played in the English Super League with the Catalan Dragons in 2020, has since played for Southport in the Gold Coast rugby league competition, and, since 2021, with Urayasu D-Rocks in Japanese rugby union.
He is set to turn 34 in April though and could have been eyeing off a final swansong in the NRL after he started his career in the sport back in 2007 with the Melbourne Storm.
He made his Australian debut at the end of his rookie season, and played for Queensland in State of Origin the following year, representing the Maroons five times and Australia eight times before exiting to play AFL in 2011 following two years with the Storm, and two with the Broncos, where he scored 73 tries in just 91 games.
different story, there’s no mention of why they aren’t playing two games on Sunshine Coast in that?It's not the link, but it is most likely the same story.
