The Redcliffe Dolphins have emerged as a possible headquarters for the Brisbane bid team campaigning for an NRL licence in 2013.

Headed up by successful Brisbane businessman Craig Davison, the bid went public last month, naming sponsors and identifying Brisbane Souths home ground Davies Park at West End and an unnamed location in the Redlands Shire as their possible NRL headquarters.

The Dolphins impressive set-up on the peninsular, with it's successful league's club, administrative offices, gymnasium and training fields has strong appeal.

Davison confirmed the consortium had held talks with Redcliffe officials on Tuesday morning about utilising their excellent facilities along with their Queensland Cup side.

It's understood Moreton Bay Shire Mayor Allan Sutherland supports the idea of having an NRL team based at Redcliffe.

"I'm not sure where you heard it from but we are having discussions with Redcliffe," Davison told AAP on Tuesday.

"Redcliffe have invited us to consider a proposal to use their facilities and base our headquarters out of their club.

"We'd have the use of their excellent training facilities, gymnasium, fields and offices to set up our operation there.

"It's quite impressive, but it's just one of our options.

"We're also looking at Davies Park and at a location in Redlands."

Davison said the bid team, which included Bill Rae and Nicholas Livermore, had not been idle since it's public launch on February 21.

"We're in the process of finalising discussions with two big insurance companies and with two of the largest brewers in the country," he said.

The NRL has not updated the bid group on any expansion plans and that's unlikely to happen until the formation of a new commission in a few months.

"I hope the commission comes on board sooner than expected which I believe could be the end of April," said Davison.

"When that happens we (and rival bidders Ipswich, Central Queensland, Central Coast and Perth) might all get and idea of what's going on.

"We're all still a bit in the dark but we're pushing ahead with our bid to make sure we're ready to roll as soon as the NRL makes a decision."
