Redcliffe Dolphins reach first NRL grand final in 25 years

Fourteen other clubs have played in an NRL decider since 2001, underscoring the long stretch of time that has passed since the men wearing red and blue last featured in the competition's championship match. In the years following 2001, more than a dozen different teams have managed to earn places in rugby league's premier event.[1][2]

The prospective appearance represents a grand final return that has been 9,135 days in the making for the men wearing red and blue. That lengthy wait follows an era during which fourteen other clubs contested an NRL decider while the red and blue side remained absent from the grand final stage.[1][2]
