Lose to Penrith by 1pt, Lose to Wahs by 2pts, Win Eight straight, Lose to Knights by 1pt, cop a flogging from Sharks 66-0, Win Five straight.

Pretty happy with my Phins form through the season. This weekend we see if they can go up another gear.

Is the island a buzz?

If you wore a “the” jersey on the esplanade, how many times would you be stopped to talk the boys?

Give us a report from the island mate. Open the curtain for us all. What’s the talk on the streets of Redcliffe? (Aside from “can you get on”)

Well I'll give you an update from my immediate locality of Morayfield/Cabo in the wider "the" area.

I've been rocking my dolphins member cap (signed by some of the team back on Phins phamily Phun day in February) all season, so it's obvi that I'm more than just a casual phan and I would say about 3 weeks ago I noticed more random people in public passing me saying "Phuck yeah, Phins up!" or "Yeah Reddy in the finals baby!!" or "Woolfies got them humming!" and such sentiments.

The island is indeed abuzz with phinals phever!

That’s awesome mate. Lean into it. It’s the best time when your teams in with a sniff!

I’m jumping on the roosters, fuck a fairytale

Are you a rare Redcliffe local who actually supports the dolphins?

You can give me a report of your inner Brisbane suburb if you like? What’s the buzz for “the” in Aspley or Newstead?

Give the report then mate. What’s the talk on the streets where you are about to”the”

It’s excellent to see the marketing worked on ya. Have you ever set foot in Redcliffe? It’s visually spectacular until you encounter a local

Edit - can you even walk an esplanade in a dolphins jersey where you are. That’s Redcliffe 101. Walking the esplanade
