If Adelaide wants an NRL team, then they have to be prepared to slide Abdo a ton of money under the table for him directly. The Perth bid was not willing to be extorted by the greedy prick. Good luck.

The plural of stadium is stadia, not stadiums.

As a player in the 90’s Hated the dressing rooms at Belmore (spectators can hear in) try and kick a train as it passed got you $100 Older Kogarah oval - the dressing rooms had a a kitchenette , small space - still the sane now . Current home rooms are massive Penrith and Cronulla away rooms are pathetic Central coast stadium - looks like the Miami - Orange Bowl with the palms at the end Old Redfern Oval away rooms were privy to fans yelling into the rooms Brisbane the most followed team in the nrl ???? Mmmm Bring back reserve grade and u21’s - club championship No more WNRL on game day

Please Think with your Head not your mouth,its All Stolen Land All this Continent people need to get some proper knowledge on this Subject.

Perth stadium? You are joking right?

What about a second team in Brisbane….similar to GWS/Sydney setup?

You should do a video on NBL expansion.

if government does not have the money what about the proposal to build a new stadium free of charge to the state so why not take up this offer instead

cia countries international student austudy pensioners SC student senior discount card china india africa and now italy's joining the mobs with queen land politician christ fool the re'fugrees politician on antihomy's illegal boat haha

This site could be better as well as this state has things that require the money so much more, this states healthcare for a start really needs support and funding

The new government should stick to the original plan and rebuild the bloody Gabba no need to rebuild a new stadium elsewhere

Just need the olympics completely cancelled now.

Labor are not ahead at all!!

Brisbane needs at least an 80k seat stadium, SEQ is now over 4.1 million people and in the next 15-20 years will add another 2 million people. Imagine a megalopolis city of over 6 million with a stadium of only 40-50k capacity, what a joke.

As per comments, i think brisbane has the opportunity to build a new stadium and put in new tech which has been used overseas. I say get rid of the gabba, turn it half the land into a park, and the other half for shops/residential and downgrade Suncorp to a 25-30k stadium (since suncorp needs a reno anyways and very limited as well in expansion to higher than 52k). Keep Suncorp for most rugby/soccer games (have bigger games played at the new stadium) Then build a brand new stadium in victoria park or whatever near the city near public transit (yes its cost more and add the retractable pitch will add extra, but be aware its also going to be the future for brisbane teams) to i say 75-80k for Olympics and variable from there on. Reason why i say variable is that its will be a retractable pitch and seating at the same time. For oval sports, 65k and for rectangular sports around 70k. The pitch for oval will pop up when oval sports are played, and the extra seating ether get slide back or underneath the ground. Likewise for rectangular sports, the oval pitch get retracted underground and then the extra seating and rectangular pitch gets moved up in place (that will also allow for rectangular sports to be closer to the action). Also there should be a third option for concert pitch which is just a plain floor so the grass pitch don't get damaged. Yeah its going to be a bit higher up for oval sports (to fit in with rectangular sports, bit like wellington stadium), but i think that the best way of going multipurpose. Also whinge about budget and whatnot, but heck this idea is probs more better in regards to spend in one go and don't worry about in 10-30 years time of building another sport ground post olympics....

All he has to do is say to the Olympics and the state will be a long way back to financial stability!

Scrap the Olympics altogether Put Queen Anistasia out of here self appointed Grifting Job

Victoria park build 100000 stadium

Let private developers build the one at Hamilton no Cost to the taxpayers'

Labour lost because they put a no-body into the Premier's chair. Annastacia Palaszczuk should never have been outsted, for someone who's name cannot be remembered.

Sports funding has nothing to do with building houses or upgrading roads. If Brisbane doesn’t grab as much federal sports funding as possible that money will go to other States to their stadium upgrades. Airport is already getting an upgrade so that’s not included in the Olympic budget, new hotels are usually Private companies

That is good.

Or just it time we think past state owned stadiums I’m sure if a private company like ones that own some of super stadiums in the USA should be considered

What a joke qld holding the Olympic how embarrassing people visiting the games what will they think of tent city 😢

Has Palavax been booted from the Olympic board

I loved the G, huge but too big. From the top tiers the players look like ants and you feel a bit separated from the atmosphere of the game. Sadly the outside of the stadium looks like an ongoing engineering project. I would of put Optus at number one. Ultra modern superb amenities, amazing lighting, the whole ground gives off a great vibe and the location on the banks of the Swan river and views over the city, public transport and external facilities it's just a stunning piece of engineering.

The gabba rebuild would be a real disappointment. If you're going to do something don't half ass it. Make it something we can be proud of at least.

Albanese should step in and order the stadium at Victoria Park.

QSAC was the only embarrassing proposal. Glad it got scrapped. I prefer the Victoria Park idea personally, but then what happens to the Gabba?

Come on put a new gabba in

55,000 seat Stadium for an Olympics is a joke.. spend the money in Victoria Park build a legacy stadium bring Brisbane up to the 21st-century and the chance to host major events in the future.

Maybe they need to look at the important issues such as reliable energy sources such as nuclear and decent roads in regional and rural Queensland and not spending everything in the S.E corner.

Why anyone thought spending 1.6b on a temporaryy stadium that serves no purpose was a good idea is beyond me.

I think building homes and fixing the Bruce is more important to Qlders than the Olympics.

Labour really screwed QLD financially.

They need to do a new stadium at Victoria park and then sell the Gabba to developers to pay for part of it. Victoria park has a rail and bus way running along its sides so it would be easy to add in Victoria park stations.

That is a wipeout. ALP got ripped .

Just knock down the useless good for nothing cricket ground Gabba and build a proper international standard stadium.

The school being there is stupid af. It should have been moved decades ago! Who in their right mind wants their kids crossing some of the busiest roads in South Brisbane. It's at least four lanes wide and has trucks/buses/cars over 20,000 per day going through there. Move it ASAP.

Just rebuild the Gabba. If the Lions want to complain, tell them to go back to Victoria. Save the big upgrade for the number 1 sport in the state and upgrade Suncorp or build a new rectangular stadium. You're more likely to fill it consistently.

Any wanker that thinks LNP will deliver on anything is basically a fuckwit.

Hey I know where we can get 40 billion dollars from but if I say it they will say that’s racism 😂

The olympics we ca T afford or want

Gabba is the best option!!

I agreed. Tighten up Chinese influence in PNG..We should never give room for Chinese to grab hold of our natural resources.Chinese are bunch of beasts troting around the world extracting for greed.. No room for Chinese please PNG Government

scrap the god damn olympics already. imagine what we could spend that money on instead.

Wasn't there plans for a family orientated park (at Victoria Park) with elevated walkways, theme gardens , ponds and BBQ activities?

Wow. Money means nothing these days. Dropping billions as if it's merely spare change.

Let's spend a few million and six more months on another report.

Sweet 🎂
