“CEO’s Message: Expressing Gratitude to Brisbane”
To Our Beloved Dolphins Supporters and Members,
As we gear up for the third installment of the Rugby League’s ultimate showdown, we’re thrilled to announce the Battle for Brisbane is upon us once again.
The unwavering dedication from our Phin Fans during the first two Battle for Brisbane matches has been truly remarkable. In just four rounds into our NRL journey, we made history by selling out Suncorp Stadium for the inaugural Battle for Brisbane—an unprecedented feat for any club. This overwhelming response speaks volumes about our city; Brisbane not only desired but needed a second team. Our Foundation year witnessed a sea of red engulfing Suncorp Stadium, epitomizing the Phins Up movement—an unforgettable sight.
While 2024 began with a challenging loss against the Cowboys, your steadfast support propelled us to bounce back with three consecutive victories, a feat achieved only once before in our club’s history. Who can forget the electrifying start to last year’s season? Regardless of tonight’s outcome, we know we can rely on your unwavering support to ride the highs and lows alongside us.
Throughout our journey into the NRL, we’ve often been dubbed as underdogs, and tonight is no exception. Yet, it’s a label we embrace wholeheartedly. Our team will take the field with determination, unity, and an unwavering commitment to make you proud. While we may not control how others perceive us, if we stay true to the ethos forged over the past year, we’ll continue to defy the odds.
We’re eagerly anticipating the fourth Battle for Brisbane on August 31—a rivalry matched only by the intensity of a State of Origin clash. If you haven’t secured your ticket yet, ensure you do so promptly to avoid missing out on this electrifying event.
Another fixture to mark on your calendar is our Anzac Round clash with the Knights on April 28. Join us as we pay tribute to Anzac Day with a solemn pre-match ceremony, followed by our team donning our special Anzac Round jersey.
Wherever you choose to cheer on the team tonight, please know that your unwavering support means the world to us. We boast the greatest and proudest fan base, and if you haven’t already, there’s still time to join the Phin Fam—a community already 28,000 strong and growing. Above all, savor the game and ensure your Phins are well and truly up.
