Lest We Forget: Dolphins Honour ANZAC Spirit

On ANZAC Day, the Dolphins stand united in remembrance.

As the game pauses to reflect, the club pays its deepest respects to the men and women who have served, and continue to serve, our country. Today is more than football, it is a moment to honour sacrifice, courage and mateship.

For the Dolphins, this round carries a profound meaning. Within the playing group and across the club, there are personal ties to service, strengthening the connection to what ANZAC Day represents.

When the Dolphins run out onto the field, they do so with purpose beyond the scoreboard.

They play for those who came before them.
They play in honour of those who gave everything.
They play to ensure their legacy is never forgotten.

The jersey worn on this day stands as a powerful symbol of that tribute.
Inspired by the Royal Australian Navy, the design pays respect to the prestigious ‘Dolphins’ badge; an emblem worn with pride by sailors and officers who have earned the right to serve aboard Australian submarines. Every detail reflects courage, unity and the enduring spirit of those who protect our nation.

This ANZAC Day clash in Wellington against the Warriors is more than a fixture, it is a moment of reflection shared across countries, codes and communities.

As the Dolphins take the field, they carry with them the spirit of those who served.

Lest we forget.
