It was a proposed $6bill development not a $6bil stadium lol

Tbh i dont know why govts/councils dont do this around the country, let developers have some land to develop in exchange for building stadiums taxpayer free.

What a great investment for the qld govt.

Give these bozos 1.5 square kms of prime real estate for free so they can get some crappy stadium supposedly for free.

Does anyone know how much land costs in that area per sqm? Multiply that by 1.5 million and that will let you know how much it cost tax payers for the stadium.

Just as an example, if it is $10,000 per sqm they are losing $15 billion in potential revenue.

Getting developers to pay for stadiums has gone really well for rugby league clubs (Salford Wakefield castleford Cronulla)

Article in CM I think valued the land at $2B.

We’re in the middle of a cost of living crisis with record property unaffordability and PR reckons the govt should just give 2B worth of land away for stadiums. FFS.

It’s quite clear the fumblers and CA are going to exert huge pressure on the QLD Government to get their way. Cricket Australia is clearly no friend of our code and the pressure will mount to get a ‘multi purpose’ stadium to the detriment of rectangle ground sports. I hope rugby union, league and football Australia get on top of this.

Tbf they will need one.

The AFL can get stuffed but no international cricket in Brisbane would be ridiculous.

It’s an empty threat being used to force a new stadium on the government. The Gabba needs an upgrade. That’s all. This is a play by afl and CA to get a stadium built which dominates the Brisbane sporting landscape. We need to be aware just how closely these two organisations are working together right now. The BS has only just started to fly. The Olympics are being used as a tool for a shared goal. Good on them but they can also stick it up their asses.

Sitting on his fat ass in Perth gives him the liberty to write tomes of drivel.

The big issue with the Gabba is the units and the school next door. To do an upgrade they'd have to build new units and the school and I could see that going down like a lead balloon.

As I said above, no international cricket in Brisbane would be absolutely ridiculous.

I’ve not seen anything to say an upgrade couldn’t occur to keep it at current capacity mate. This push by CA is otherwise motivated. Test cricket in Brisbane rarely reaches capacity and usually only against England on day one.

They can play at the Gabba

Brisbane didn't ask for much apart from the first test of the series. It doesn't draw well as it is still in school/work time but it was a tradition and a great advantage for the Australian test team.

But CA f**ked that tradition pandering to their Indian overlords. Then put the blame on the Brisbane public while they were taking the subcontinent up their backsides.

So CA can get f**ked. They can drown in a mire of 20/20 garbage for all I care.

A 60k redeveloped Gabba will be a huge white elephant that never sells out. Neither cricket or afl need a bigger stadium that will always be half empty at best and for most games 2/3rd empty

it’s concerning our rivals are putting a lot of pressure on the qld state govt to get their way and the arlc has been silent on this

A 70k Suncorp stadium is n urgently needed to cater to all the sold out rugby league events
