None of the changes the fact redcliffe is not sunshine Coast and in general sunny coast has no love or affinity with redcliffe.
You're right, it doesn't change the fact, but you asked why people thought that they represent SC and I told you why, because the Dolphins, NRL and other partners of the team keep saying so. So it's obviously an ambition of theirs and of the NRL.

Other than that, there is a distinction between Redcliffe Dolphins and NRL Dolphins.

Having chosen redcliffe that was what it should have been all along with all games at Suncorp. Smacks of appeasing Broncos by not calling them that and having them play in Brisbane only part time.
If you look at it a different way, the NRL is just trying to spread it's teams around SEQ rather than just putting a copy paste of the Broncos smack bang in the middle of Brisbane, that approach doesn't offer anything new or a point of difference.

You see it as 'appeasing the Broncos', the NRL sees it as using a franchise to represent a slightly different corner of the same region the Broncos are in. It is smart not to have them sitting on top of each other. The NRL is lucky to have a behemoth of a club in the North that was NRL ready.

Next up, get the Western corridor a team and we've got an awesome spread of teams here alongside Broncos (city), Dolphins (North) and Gold Coast (south). That will set QLD up forever at NRL level without oversaturating. Eventually I'd imagine Dolphins and Western Firehawk-Jets will have their own 25-30k boutique stadium but play the big QLD derby matches at Suncorp which is the perfect balance.

Fremantle to Perth 31 mins by car - good because it's the AFL
Redcliffe to Brisbane 39 mins by car - bad because it's the NRL
Not sure your point? Freo play all games at Optus, they dont take some to a shtty little ground in Fremantle.

They should be called the WA or West Coast or Western. Not Perth. Just not 'the'.

having a global pay tv provider working side by side can be a huge benefit

Is it classed as 'contra' for giving them such a sweet extension? you remember, catching a cold and all that. Hasnt cost much at all then lol You say side by side, i say calling the tune.

Going to be funny when fox have to ditch afl because the nrl rights will be so expensive
In 2033? Yeh because weve done such a stellar job in being the number one contract cost for Fox lol

sniff sniff is that someone catching a cold? Sure you can have the rights massively undervalued so you can pay overs for AFL. Nice work Vlandys!

They did play in their own ground until recently didnt they

why do you post so much bs
no, they have played at waca, subi oval then optus. They arent stupid enough to play even one game in a little suburban stadium when they have a world class one on the doorstep, they arent an NRL team!
