    The Game Future NRL Stadiums part II

    Suncorp is a victim because there is no coordinated approach. The NRL, QRL, Football Australia and Rugby Australia should all be working together on upgrade advocacy. But instead they are either not interested, in legal proceedings, going broke or focused on other matters. Meanwhile a major...

    Actually V'Landys shows very little interest in Brisbane or Queensland. That is a huge problem. His style would be very suited to this, but he is absent from the field currently.

    The Game Future NRL Stadiums part II

    The Victoria Park thing has come out of nowhere and has cronyism written all over it. Likely cooked up by some Melbourne connected business people. Literally the only people advocating it are Melbourne AFL bots/tourists, who are the majority of Lions attendees. Expecting a pretty big backlash...

    Peter V'landys - New NRL/ARLC Chairman

    The Dally M medal While there have been calls to change the format of the Dally M Medal to give it a greater standing in the game, to improve judging and to allow wagering on it, fundamental changes should not be expected anytime soon. “No, there won’t be any changes,” he confirmed. “The...

    Gabba. Long history of Rugby League including the highest crowd at the ground for the 1954 Ashes series. Short term pain, long term gain.

    Let's take a look at what AFL fans want to destroy with their Victoria Park proposal: https://www.brisbane.qld.gov.au/things-to-see-and-do/council-venues-and-precincts/parks/victoria-park-barrambin/victoria-park-barrambin-master-plan "A natural space that celebrates Country and Brisbane’s...

    That's a terrible option. Loss of community green space for a white elephant. Look forward to the campaign against that. Understand why Melbourne AFL fans are angling for this though.

    AFL bullshit lying. Rugby League crowds can be viewed here.

    2024 Crowd Watch

    AFL bullshit lying. Brisbane 7/9 and Dolphins 4/7 regular season crowds exceeded 60% capacity at Suncorp Stadium in 2023. Excludes Magic Round and finals.

    First coach sacked 2024

    Payten not even a contender as North Queensland management are just happy to make up the numbers in the NRL. Fact is he needs to make the finals or his four years are a complete waste.

    2024 TV and Streaming Ratings Discussion

    Perth would bring average attendances and TV viewership down, while being a drag on revenue and profit. Not a strong case.

    Yes I understand there is a deeper level story to the 2011 figures, but it would good to beat the headline figure regardless.

    2024 Crowd Watch

    Is it likely that we will have a record Round 1 average crowd in 2024? Current record is from 2011 - 25039 if I'm not mistaken.

    The potential backlash against a development at Victoria Park could be bigger than that against the Gabba. It is slated to be developed into free community parklands. The Victorians who run the Lions with their finger on the local pulse.

    2024 Crowd Watch

    Excellent content in this thread so far from @APPSY, @yakstorm, @SLRBRONCOS, @ouwet and others. Hopefully the 2024 NRL crowd thread doesn’t devolve into a total disaster like last years. Crowds look pretty solid for Round 1.

    The Game Future NRL Stadiums part II

    The AFL/Lions case is all built on their usual lies and bullshit. Lions Chair is out their saying they sold out half their games last year. It is a constant stream of bullshit lies. The Sydney media/V'Landys complex really needs to help out Brisbane, and call this out.
