The Dolphins are set to sport black, red and gold with a new jersey for 204.

But in copying the English Premier League, it will be the first time an NRL team has worn a new jersey ahead of its official unveiling season.

Dolphins' chief executive Terry Reader spoke about the club's new alternate strip, revealing he believes it will be a hit with the fans.

โ€œIt is unusual to be wearing a jersey ahead of its official season, but the reality is that as the number-one selling team in the NRL for on-field apparel, buying a 2023 Dolphins jersey is extremely difficult at this point,โ€ said Reader.

โ€œOur fan feedback has been strong that our supporters wanted to see some black added into our range and our apparel partner Classic and retailers have indicated this will be a popular item.

โ€œWe have had a lot of firsts this year at the Dolphins, and this will be another one for our fans as we return in a new jersey for the first game back at Suncorp Stadium.โ€
