Dolphins Forced to Relocate as Floods Disrupt NRL Season

The Dolphins have been forced to abandon their base and relocate to Newcastle after their training facilities were left without power in the aftermath of ex-Tropical Cyclone Alfred, throwing their preparations for their clash against the Knights in disarray. More than 112,000 homes and businesses are still without power and key sporting venues are still unusable.

The Dolphins had planned to travel to Newcastle later in the week but were compelled to leave two days early on Monday evening, 10 March. Their home ground, Kayo Stadium, and their Redcliffe training base were both rendered unplayable after days of relentless rain left the facilities waterlogged. Head coach Kristian Woolf was forced to cancel Monday’s training session, further impacting their build-up to Round 2.

Squad Faces Challenges After Key Injuries and Disruptions

Adding to their troubles, the Dolphins will be without back-rower Kulikefu Finefeuiaki, who failed his Head Injury Assessment (HIA) following a controversial incident against the Rabbitohs. The club also confirmed that Samoan international Connelly Lemuelu has suffered a fractured eye socket, ruling him out for up to four weeks. These setbacks test the depth of the squad, with key players already absent due to the relocation.

The crisis has also had an emotional toll, with three Dolphins players—Kodi Nikorima, Mark Nicholls, and Kenny Bromwich—opting to withdraw from the Rabbitohs game to remain with their families amid the natural disaster. Team officials have been working closely with the NRL to manage the disruptions and locate alternative training grounds.

Titans Also Affected as Gold Coast Training Base Submerged

The Dolphins are not the only Queensland club affected by the extreme weather. The Gold Coast Titans were also forced to flee, relocating to Sydney after their training grounds were left two metres underwater. The Titans will now prepare for their Sunday night clash against the Canterbury Bulldogs at Belmore Oval away from home, adding another layer of difficulty to their season opener.

Despite the upheaval, Titans CEO Steve Mitchell said the players remain focused on delivering a strong performance for their flood-affected community. He acknowledged that while the conditions were far from ideal, the team was determined to push through and represent the region with pride.

Broncos Escape Major Damage but Adjust Training Schedule

Meanwhile, the Brisbane Broncos avoided significant damage to their training facilities at Red Hill but were forced to adjust their training schedule. Players used the gym on Monday morning to allow the playing surface more time to dry. The club confirmed that they will fly to Canberra on Friday for their Saturday match as planned.

NRL Teams Rally as Queensland Battles Flooding

The widespread flooding has created major obstacles for Queensland’s NRL clubs, but the Dolphins and Titans are working around the clock to minimise disruptions and remain competitive.

Club officials have prioritised player welfare and safety, ensuring that families and staff are supported through the crisis.

With the Dolphins now settled in Newcastle and the Titans setting up in Sydney, both teams are adapting to their new surroundings and focusing on their upcoming matches despite the adversity. While logistical challenges and injuries have complicated preparations, players and coaches are committed to making the best of a difficult situation.

Redcliffe Koala Numbers Dwindle, Urgent Action Demanded

The survival of Redcliffe’s fragile koala population hangs in the balance. Rescuers reveal that multiple koalas are dying each week due to habitat loss and animal attacks, highlighting the urgent need for community and government intervention.

Rescue and Release

Local volunteers, like Tash Barker and Therese Hollan, dedicate their time to rescuing and rehabilitating injured koalas. One recent success story involved a seven-year-old koala, known to locals as Blinky and to rescuers as Coolio. After three months of treatment at Moggill Koala Rehabilitation Centre, the koala returned to his Kippa-Ring habitat. The koala had suffered severe injuries from a dog attack.

According to the volunteers, moments of successful releases provide motivation, despite the frequent and disheartening losses. Barker, a member of Pine Rivers Koala Care, expressed the emotional strain of witnessing multiple koala deaths in a short period. Hollan, a volunteer with Redcliffe Environmental Forum (REF), stated that the return of Coolio was a moment of joy that balanced the frequent losses the volunteers experience.

Habitat and Population Concerns

The koala population in Redcliffe faces significant challenges due to fragmented habitats, primarily caused by the railway corridor. Hollan explained that the corridor has divided the koala population, resulting in approximately 50 koalas south of the railway and only 12 in the northern areas, including Silcock Reserve and the Redcliffe Golf Course at Clontarf. The low numbers in the northern population are particularly concerning, as roads surround them and face threats from dogs.

Hollan, who attended a meeting with Moreton Bay City Council and the Department of Environment Tourism and Science (DETSI) in August, raised concerns about the genetic diversity of the remaining koala populations. She emphasised that while the southern population number seems reasonable, its long-term survival is not guaranteed without understanding its genetic health. Hollan explained that they are seeking a grant to fund university research into the genetic diversity of the koalas to determine the necessary steps for population preservation.

Call for Community and Government Action

Both Barker and Hollan advocate for a more coordinated approach to koala preservation, involving volunteer organisations, the State Government, and the local council. They urge residents to take responsibility for protecting the marsupials by driving slowly in koala habitats, keeping dogs contained at night, and participating in bush care groups. Hollan stated that many Australians have never seen a koala in the wild, emphasising their unique value.

She stressed that every koala is essential due to the numerous threats to their survival. Barker explained that her journey into koala care started because she frequently found injured wildlife and wanted to ensure they received proper care. She grew up with koalas and wants to protect them. The volunteers would like to see more warning signs placed in areas with koala populations.

Cyclone Alfred Tears Roof Off Redcliffe Home While Resident Sleeps

A Redcliffe resident slept through the moment when ex-tropical cyclone Alfred tore the roof off his home on Saturday night, sending it onto nearby power lines.

Daniel Goullet, who has lived in his Redcliffe house for five years, was asleep when the severe weather event struck the Moreton Bay region with wind gusts exceeding 100 km/h. The area, located approximately 30 km north of Brisbane’s CBD, was hit around 9pm when Alfred made landfall.

“We were asleep when the roof came off. I had no idea, the wind was so loud so we didn’t notice the roof came up,” Goullet said.

The Redcliffe property, which Goullet described as “the oldest house on the [Moreton Bay] Peninsula,” suffered significant damage during the storm. A severe weather alert had been issued for the area at 8:45pm Saturday.

“I had my doubts because it’s the oldest house on the Peninsula, I thought if anything’s going to happen it’s going to happen to this house,” Goullet said.

The Redcliffe area was particularly hard hit as Alfred, which had been downgraded from a potential category 2 cyclone to a tropical low before making landfall, moved through southeast Queensland.

Despite the downgrade, the storm has caused considerable disruption across the region, with power outages, flooding, and debris reported in numerous locations. Meteorologists warn that residents, including those in the Redcliffe peninsula, should prepare for more rainfall and continued wild weather in the coming days.

Filling a Gap in Redcliffe Plant Market

With the closure of Redcliffe Garden Centre on Snook Street, the area has lacked a dedicated independent plant shop. The Urban Jungle Society’s owner, Kendrik Uhle, recognised this gap and decided to bring a specialty store to the community. He aims to offer a more personalised and knowledgeable service than large retail chains, creating a hub where plant enthusiasts can access expert advice and various plants.

As a landscaper, Mr Uhle aims to use his experience to help customers make informed choices about their indoor and outdoor greenery. He also hopes the store’s presence will contribute to the ongoing revitalisation of Cominos Arcade, encouraging more small businesses to establish themselves in Redcliffe.

What The Urban Jungle Society Offers

The store will feature an extensive collection of indoor plants, stylish pots, and premium horticultural supplies. Outdoor plant orders can be placed in-store, ensuring customers can access a broad selection beyond immediately available.

In addition to catering to individual plant lovers, the business will also supply bulk orders for private customers and trade professionals. Plant care kits and expert advice will be available to help customers maintain their greenery with confidence.

Rare Plants, Accessories, and Essentials

The Urban Jungle Society will stock a variety of rare and exotic plants, including Philodendron Gloriosum ($19.99), Monstera Laniata Variegata ($44.99), and Monstera Thai Constellation ($159.99). More common indoor favourites like Philodendron Moonlight ($19.99) and Asplenium Nidus – Birds Nest Fern ($25.00) will also be available.

In addition to plants, customers can find premium plant care accessories, such as The Urban Jungle’s Reusable Repotting Mat ($40.00) and The Plant Runner Neem Oil Refill ($38.00). Stylish watering cans, like the 1.9L Chalk Indoor Watering Can ($69.99), will also be on offer, along with plant care kits designed to help plants thrive.

BROWSE SHOP

Customers interested in outdoor plants can place special orders in-store, ensuring access to a wider selection beyond the shop’s indoor offerings. Bulk orders for both domestic and trade customers will also be available.

Grand Opening and Special Discounts

The Urban Jungle Society’s grand opening at 10A/132 Sutton Street occurred last Saturday, 1 March, from 7 a.m. to 3 p.m. The store will operate on Wednesdays to Fridays from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. and from 7 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Saturdays and Sundays.

To celebrate its launch, all items will be available at a 30 per cent discount for the first week, from 1 March to 8 March.

Mr Uhle believes Cominos Arcade is the ideal location, not only because of its central position but also due to its potential for business growth. By setting up shop in the area, he hopes to play a role in attracting more independent businesses to Redcliffe.

A Fresh Addition to Redcliffe Business Scene

The Urban Jungle Society’s arrival adds to the growing community of small businesses. With a strong focus on high-quality products, expert guidance, and a personalised shopping experience, the store is expected to appeal to both local residents and visitors.

By encouraging more people to embrace indoor and outdoor greenery, the store aims to support a greener, healthier lifestyle for the community. Its presence in Cominos Arcade signals a step towards a more vibrant and diverse retail environment in Redcliffe.

No Shelter, No Safety: Homeless at Risk as Cyclone Alfred Looms and Camping Ban Begins

Charities in the potential path of Cyclone Alfred are asking to open evacuation centres for rough sleepers, warning that thousands of lives could be at risk as extreme weather intensifies.

Read: Woody Point Rough Sleepers Face Strict Bans on Pets and Camping

Northwest Community Group founder Paul Slater said he made several attempts on Monday, 3 March, to contact Brisbane for advice on evacuation centres but was yet to receive clear information.

Moreton Bay advised residents to check the council’s Disaster Dashboard for up-to-date information on evacuation centres but said crisis accommodation for homeless individuals was a matter for the Department of Housing. However, as of noon on Tuesday, the dashboard still showed no evacuation centres or refuge sites open as Cyclone Alfred nears.

Queensland’s social services body, QCOSS, warned that “a tent or car will not protect [homeless individuals] from the predicted brutality of strong winds and heavy rainfall.”

MPs wrote the Queensland Minister for Housing on Monday, expressing concern for people sleeping rough in the inner city. On Tuesday, Mr Max Chandler-Mather confirmed the Department of Housing had activated Critical Response Teams to visit known areas where homeless people reside and was connecting them with emergency accommodation.

Meanwhile, Nourish Street founder Beau Haywood, who provides outreach services throughout the Moreton Bay region, spent Monday night informing rough sleepers about the risks of Cyclone Alfred.

Moreton Bay Bans Homeless Camping Amid Worsening Crisi

The City of Moreton Bay has officially banned homeless people from camping in public spaces, making it illegal to sleep in parks, streets, or in vehicles across the region.

The move follows the repeal of the council’s Persons Experiencing Homelessness Camping Framework, which previously allowed some leniency for rough sleepers on council land.

The crackdown means that as of 12 March 2025, those found camping in public spaces may face removal, with enforcement carried out by eight new council officers alongside Queensland Police Service. Council will operate under a complaint-based system, responding to reports from the community.

The timing of this decision has drawn criticism, with many arguing that banning public camping just as a cyclone threatens the region puts vulnerable people at even greater risk.

“City of Moreton Bay is aware of how complex an issue homelessness is, and we acknowledge that this change will not be welcomed by everyone,” Scott Waters, City of Moreton Bay CEO announced.

“The health and safety of people experiencing homelessness is core to this change and repealing the Framework will enable these individuals to get the critical support they need.”
City of Moreton Bay CEO, Scott Waters

Woody Point’s Gayundah Arboretum Park Shut Down

The policy shift has had immediate effects, particularly in Woody Point, where the Gayundah Arboretum Park was closed on February 17 due to worsening public health and safety concerns.

Acting Mayor Jodie Shipway said a review of the site found human waste, drug paraphernalia, and active vermin breeding, making the area unsafe for both campers and the general public.

“It’s just not safe for people to be residing in these conditions, nor for the community to continue to use this public space,” Shipway said. The park has been fenced off, and remediation works—expected to take six months—will involve sanitation, ground maintenance, and restoration of vegetation.

Showgrounds as a Possible Alternative?

In response to the looming displacement of homeless people, Mayor Peter Flannery has proposed allowing rough sleepers to stay in state-owned showgrounds. He called on the Queensland Government to lift restrictions preventing their use as emergency housing and to fund necessary amenities such as security, water, and power.

The council’s tough stance has drawn mixed reactions. While some residents support the measures due to safety concerns, others argue that criminalising homelessness does not address the root causes.

Q Shelter, the peak body for frontline housing and homelessness services in Queensland, called the repeal “disappointing” and expressed concern that it will further disadvantage vulnerable individuals impacted by the worsening housing and homelessness crisis.

“We appreciate that homelessness and rough sleeping are highly complex issues, particularly when also managing public safety considerations. But the challenge remains that these highly vulnerable people are living in public spaces because they have nowhere else to go.”
Q Shelter Acting CEO Jackson Hills

Meanwhile, the City of Moreton Bay reassured the public that it will keep working with the State Government’s Department of Housing to help individuals find alternative accommodation and access necessary support.

With homeless individuals now facing tighter restrictions, the focus will be on whether alternative solutions, like the use of showgrounds, gain government support—or if more people are left struggling to find shelter.

Alfred is forecast to strengthen to Category 2 by 3 March. The Bureau of Meteorology has informed the City of Moreton Bay that Tropical Cyclone Alfred is expected to shift towards the Queensland coast on Tuesday, 4 March. The system may make landfall along the southeast coast on Thursday or Friday.

Moreton Bay’s Call to Prepare

Mayor Peter Flannery stated, “While it is uncommon for cyclones to head this far south, we do need to take the very real danger of a significant cyclone event in the area seriously.” He advised locals to use this time to secure their homes, check on their neighbours, and plan ahead, particularly if they live in flood-prone or exposed areas.

Preparation Steps for Cyclone Alfred

Assemble an Emergency Kit: Ensure you have essential supplies to last three to five days, including food, water, medications, important documents, cash, pet supplies, and battery-operated devices like radios and torches.
Secure Your Property: Remove or secure any loose outdoor items that could become dangerous projectiles. Clean gutters and check drainage systems to help reduce flood risk. Inspect your property for any tree branches overhanging your roof and trim them if possible. Green waste stations are open and free to help residents prepare for severe weather. The Redcliffe Transfer Station at 263 Duffield Rd, Clontarf, accepts various types of waste, including garden waste and clippings.

Sandbag Collection: Sandbags can help mitigate the impact of flooding. The nearest collection point for Redcliffe residents is Margate, opposite Margate Depot – Jull Street, Margate.
- Any sandbag station listed as “open” is available 24/7.
- Moreton Bay Council advises purchasing materials to make your own sandbags or buying pre-filled ones from hardware stores or landscaping suppliers where possible.

Vehicle Safety: Avoid parking vehicles in low-lying areas, under trees, or near power lines. If possible, move them to higher ground or secure garages to prevent damage.
Stay Informed: Regularly check official sources such as Moreton Bay Council’s Disaster Dashboard, the Bureau of Meteorology, and Get Ready Queensland for the latest updates and warnings. Residents are encouraged to keep these sites bookmarked for updates on road closures, sandbag stations, and emergency services.

Final Considerations

Preparation is key to reducing the impact of Cyclone Alfred on Redcliffe and Moreton Bay. Residents should act now to safeguard their homes, ensure they have essential supplies, and stay informed.

If you live in a low-lying or flood-prone area, consider making plans to stay with family or friends. Most importantly, never attempt to drive or walk through floodwaters—if it’s flooded, forget it.

Redcliffe families now have a new space-themed play centre to enjoy, with the opening of Area 51 at 82-98 Anzac Ave.

The centre officially opened its doors, offering a fun and engaging environment for children aged 12 and under. Operating hours are from 11:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m.

Play Areas and Features

The 1000sqm Redcliffe centre offers a variety of attractions for kids. Younger children can explore the dedicated toddler zone, Astro Explorer, while older kids can tackle the Super Climber and the large soft play area known as Gizmo’s Odyssey. Thrilling slides and a café for parents are also featured.

Area 51 Operations Manager, Michael Affleck, stated that the centre aims to provide a valuable community hub where families can connect and children can be active and entertained. He also noted that the Redcliffe centre, while smaller than the 8000sqm Underwood location, is still designed to provide ample space for fun and play.

Community Focus

Area 51’s expansion into Redcliffe reflects the company’s commitment to providing families with accessible indoor play spaces. The company recognises the importance of these centres in fostering community connections and offering children opportunities for active play. This new location will offer Redcliffe families a place to gather, relax, and let their children burn off energy in a safe and stimulating environment.

Mr Affleck has said the company’s goal is to provide more families with indoor play centres where children can be energetic and engaged and have the opportunity to meet like-minded people.

Future Expansion

Area 51 is experiencing significant growth, winning a Best of Queensland Experience Award in 2024. In addition to the Redcliffe location, the company has announced early works on a third indoor entertainment centre in Bundamba, Ipswich, demonstrating its dedication to expanding its reach and providing more families with quality entertainment options. Bookings for the Redcliffe Centre can be made via the Area 51 website.

Redcliffe Residents Respond to New Public Camping Regulations

Redcliffe residents will soon see a significant shift in local regulations as Moreton has banned camping in public spaces. This decision followed increasing reports of safety and public health issues.

The ban on camping in public places, which will take effect Wednesday, 12 March, repeals the previous framework, which allowed for managed camping by those experiencing homelessness.

Reasons for the Change

The decision came after many residents expressed concerns about activities in public parks. They reported witnessing drug use, people carrying dangerous weapons, and aggressive behaviour. Additionally, issues such as littering, public toileting, and the presence of used syringes were raised.

Council explained that the previous “Persons Experiencing Homeless Camping Framework” had given them the ability to manage camping, but they felt it was not working as intended. Moreton Bay’s Chief Executive Officer stated that the framework allowed people to camp for long periods if they followed certain rules, such as keeping the area clean and not blocking public access. However, Council has now aligned its rules with other councils in South-East Queensland.

Council’s Stance

Mayor Peter Flannery said Council tried to be understanding when introducing the original framework. He said that over time, it became clear that the system was being misused by individuals who wanted free camping. The leaders emphasised that their primary responsibility is to the people who pay rates in the city. They felt that the illegal camping was negatively impacting the community.

Council also stated that some people refused offers of crisis accommodation and instead chose to camp in public areas. They reported that some individuals had specific demands for accommodation, such as certain locations or amenities.

Council clarified that they are not responsible for providing housing, stating that this is the responsibility of the State. They have called on the Department of Housing, Department of Health, and the police to take action.

Community Impact and Feedback

Deputy Mayor Jodie Shipway expressed sadness that people felt forced to live in such conditions. She highlighted the health and safety risks for both those camping and the wider community and council staff.

Cr Karl Winchester reported receiving complaints from schools, community groups, and residents who felt unable to use public parks safely. Cr Adam Hain said the original framework’s intentions were good, but Council had become too lenient.

He shared that some playgrounds had been closed for months due to encampments and that residents were experiencing severe problems near their homes. He also relayed reports of illegal drug deals happening in front of parents at sporting events. Council acknowledged that the change would affect people experiencing homelessness and urged state agencies to assist.

Redcliffe Residents Oppose Seven-Storey Waterfront Plan on Marine Parade

Redcliffe residents have raised significant objections to a proposed seven-storey apartment building on Marine Parade, arguing the development contradicts existing council planning policies and undermines community consultation.

Community Concerns Surface

Redcliffe Residents Oppose Seven-Storey Waterfront Plan on Marine Parade — *Photo Credit:* *DA/2024/4695*

Ian Flint, representing the Waves body corporate committee, conveyed residents’ “deep concerns” during a recent Moreton Bay City Council meeting. He highlighted that the development application for 25 Marine Parade, which outlines plans for five apartments spread across seven levels, including parking and a rooftop terrace, has stirred unease within the community. As Mr Flint expressed, the core issue centres on the perceived overdevelopment of the Redcliffe Peninsula.

He argued that the area is already experiencing substantial high-density residential growth, with numerous high-rise buildings either existing, under construction, or recently approved. Residents question the suitability of another tall building on a relatively small block, particularly given its proximity to existing properties.

Policy and Process Criticised

A central point of contention concerns the perceived inconsistency between the proposed development and the council’s planning policies. Mr Flint asserted that the council’s own guidelines suggest a two- to three-storey building would be more appropriate for the location. The proposed seven-storey structure, therefore, raises questions regarding planning consistency and transparency.

Furthermore, the development application’s classification as code assessable, rather than impact assessable, has drawn criticism. This classification meant that affected residents and stakeholders were not formally notified of the application, nor were they allowed to lodge formal objections.

Mr Flint stated that the lack of community consultation undermines confidence in the planning process and denies those directly affected a voice in decisions that will significantly impact their homes and quality of life.

Practical Implications Raised

Beyond policy concerns, residents have also raised practical issues. Specifically, they expressed apprehension about the placement of waste collection bins in the new development.

The proposed location, which fronts onto a pedestrian crossing and directly in front of the existing Waves building, is viewed as problematic. Residents believe this placement will create an obstruction and inconvenience for pedestrians.
