Brisbane 2032

Pauline Hanson and One Nation today have come out and said Brisbane 2032 should be scrapped joining the local Greens who say the same

Brisbane 2032 “Bringing the far-right & far-left together”

Yes, but the catch is they have to be held entirely in Frankston.

IOC: “Fark this, Olympics are closed, not worth it”

I remember being surprised that Brisbanes population is only just less than Chicagos.

It’s always felt small.

The City of Chicago is similar to the entire Brisbane population however the entire Chicago metro area is 10 million

Seems I was being lied to, perhaps more like San Antonio.

Still technically correct I guess

Brisbane metro population 2.28 million would sit in 30th spot in the US

Even Atlanta which Brisbane is being compared to is nearly triple the size

How could they not support the games being held in Frankston? Would be epic :rofl:

Mt take on the Commonwealth games debacle in melbourne and the issues confronting the upcoming Olympic games in Brisbane is that the Government’s have gone too BIG in their preparations for these games. which seems to have been opposed by the Comm Games and Olympic Games organisations. The Melbourne Comm Games could have been done in Melbourne with mainly minor facilities upgrades, instead of spreading through regional Victoria necessitating the building of new facilities

Just like the No vote and COVID vaccines

Going well

QLD Government polling of 1200 Queenslanders has shown only 38% support for the Brisbane 2032 Olympics

So the much vaunted review into Brisbane 2032 venues suggests scrapping building a $2.7 billion venue and replace it with a $3.4 billion stadium!

Some light reading for a Monday morning

If goes through, the Bears will end up with a new 55,000 seat stadium without the AFL spending a cent

Man. The Gabba is ■■■■.

So QLD Cabinet have rejected the review findings and will go with the John Coates model of track & field at QSAC, Opening/Closing Ceremonies at Suncorp Stadium and the Gabba will get a “refurbishment”

Local Brisbane Fox Sports/Footy guy not impressed


Is there still time for them to just ditch the games?
Because, gee, there’d have to be a real temptation now.

Can we just have the athletes walking down the street and blitz commentating?

We really only need that.

My goodness, all footy fans should have been getting behind the Victoria park proposal, it would have been great for the AFL. Not sure wtf this miles clown is thinking. Short term, selfish, small town mindset.
