This is a massive W either way, hopefully they can push for at least 60k+ !
I think something like Estadio Metropolitano could eventuate. But more rectangular. It seats 70k for reference - obviously we couldn't match that given this is more of a bowl.

It’s a double whammy for them because if the world’s second ever most expensive stadium got built at Victoria Park it would have put any Suncorp Stadium upgrades on the back burner for quite some time.

Checked the Brisbane reddit page it’s full of people frothing about how embarrassing it will be for Brisbane, coincidentally a lot of them have lions singlets on their avatar or whatever it’s called. Obviously the numbers have spoken for themselves, an upgraded Suncorp will look just fine as the “face” of the olympics.
I've been dining on those AFL tears in that subreddit all day.

If there is anything that Brisbane knows how to do well it is throwing a PARTY! 90% of the city adores Suncorp and Caxton St. The Olympics will be anything but an embarrassment. There is a reason why the Sydney Olympics are still regarded as the 'greatest ever' and it is because of the people. Brisbane 2032 will be just as good.

500 million should be more than plus10k seats

shame the afl is getting anything but from 2.5 billion to them getting the same as rugby league it’s a good result

dolphins should be asking for kayo to be rebuilt into a 30k ground too

Suncorp getting the opening and closing ceremonies is going to mean huge profits for the gambaro hotel now

they will make a killing during the Olympics

This could still change after the state election later this year. With a change of government likely, any plans could be torn up and changed again.
The Liberals will struggle to win and even they do I highly doubt they’ll change too much.

They are very effective in doing their job.
New stadium in perth, likely new stadium in Tassie, new stadium in western Sydney, new womens stadium in Brisbane, looking like a new mens stadium in Brisbane, hundreds of millions for their own stadium in melbourne, Meanwhile over at NRLHQ.......

Cricket in Queensland don't require a big stadium for one test and a handful of BBL.

End of life Gabba can easily be downsized to a more boutique size.

If the QSAC was to have modern stands, then to offered to the AFL after 2032, would that work in the Lions favour?
