Dolphins coach Kristian Woolf is disappointed after his team was overlooked for the NRL's Vegas season kick-off next year.
Dolphins coach Kristian Woolf has expressed his disappointment at the NRL after Redcliffe were snubbed for the premiership kick-off in Las Vegas next season.
The Dolphins will be the only existing club yet to have a taste of Vegas after losing out to the Eels, Storm, Tigers and Queensland rivals the Gold Coast Titans to launch the 2027 season in Sin City.
The Dolphins were keen to become the third Queensland club to travel to America after the Broncos were pioneers in 2024 before the Cowboys played at Allegiant Stadium this year.
But despite being one of the code's most attractive attacking teams, the Dolphins have been overlooked by the NRL in favour of the lowly Titans, who have been a bottom-four club for four consecutive seasons.
The decision went down like a lead balloon with Dolphins coach Woolf, who questioned the NRL's "process" over their Sin City snubbing ahead of his side's away clash with Canberra on Thursday night.
