As soon as you boring f**kers come up with something more clever to work with than "never heard of the f**ker" then maybe I might think about it

The thing is...
"Never heard of the f**ker" is the funniest and most infamous phrase in forum history.
It's here to stay.

IBM: "NRL doesn't pay attention to the heartland"

NRL: "Here's a whole weekend of footy at Suncorp"

IBM: "f**king tools"


But being serious for a second, I reckon the Reds will object, and how the f**k will the surface hold up? It's already a sandbox most of the time.

Shit idea
Will suit the shithole that is Brisbane.

THREAD OF THE YEAR.

 

[T-Boon]

Make it opening round of the season. Get all the players in one place for the weekend. Start the season in Brisbane - end it in Sydney. Have a player parade through Caxton Street. Make it the Qld equivalent of the grand final weekend. Call it festivus for the rest of us.

An NRL version of the Magic weekend is just such an unnecessary and stupid idea for many reasons.

But if we have to have one then why would you play it in Brisbane, I mean the whole concept of the Magic weekend was to create a once a year event where they could take RL on the road and sell it to places that aren't traditionally RL towns, that's why they play it in places like Newcastle and not Wigan, so if we were going to do it wouldn't it make much more sense to take it to a place like Perth, Wellington, Adelaide, even Melbourne would make more sense.

Holding it in Brisbane just seems like a cash grab, and one that wont work very well either.

On another note, if I was running Canberra, Newcastle, Melbourne, NQ, NZ, or even the GC, I'd refuse to take part in it if it was going to cost me a home game...

What did the Raiders average at home last year?

 

[Pedge1971]

Perth or Adelaide makes sense. Brisbane doesnt.

It is not the nrl's fault the SCG has a better atmosphere than Suncorp...

An NRL version of the Magic weekend is just such an unnecessary and stupid idea for many reasons.

It is necessary to consider magic weekends and other such ideas because the clubs are having a heck of a time trying to attract crowds. Crowd averages have been declining over the last 10 years.

Brisbane/SEQ is a good place to hold the weekend because it is not too far for most NRL fans to travel and you would almost guarantee sell out crowds over the 3 days. And lets not forget that Brisbane is a bit of an expansion area given we want a second Brisbane team and the Broncos say it is not plausible.

Make it round one so that you can have a week of build up in Brisbane and the Gold Coast with NRL events. All the stars, RL media, celebrities in one place. Have a street parade, then a double header Friday night season launch. have the triple header Saturday on the Gold Coast. Then another triple header with Brisbane playing on the Sunday.

Looks like the NRL took note of something mentioned this year in League Unlimited.
