Dolphins Debut Marks New Chapter for Flegler
Thomas Flegler is set to embark on a new chapter in his NRL career when he makes his debut for the Redcliffe Dolphins. After four seasons with the Brisbane Broncos, Flegler has inked a four-year deal with the expansion club.
Brisbane Coach Concedes More Shakeups
Brisbane coach Kevin Walters has acknowledged that additional high-profile players could be forced out of the club as it navigates salary cap pressures. The Dolphins' recruitment drive has put pressure on the Broncos' roster, with Flegler among several players to depart.

Flegler's move to the Dolphins also coincides with a change in Queensland's Origin team. With Josh Papalii unavailable due to injury, Flegler could be in the frame to make his Origin debut in 2023. Queensland will face a significant challenge in replacing Papalii's experience and ability.
