He threatened to kill Hastings' sisters and named them.

Surely a lifelong ban from all rugby league games and a restraining order is placed against the thug. He sounds like a demented stalker and needs to be monitored.

I’m here for magic round while transport to Suncorp is free the streets around the ground are closed so the bus drops us all off more than a kilometre from the ground in the pouring rain !

You must have taken the wrong bus as the buses all go directly under the stadium and pop up at the milton road end plaza.

That's what I thought but my buses terminated at Roma St Friday and Saturday.

Perth and Adelaide looking to steal Magic Round from Brisbane

Not sure how well a full round would go in Adelaide or Perth. Melbourne too for that matter, Auckland would probably do alright. At the very least NRL should be looking to sell the idea of double/triple headers to Perth, Adelaide, Melbourne and/or Auckland.

I don't think many people travel to see their team in a double header whereas I think the magic round could get a fair few to go. Melbourne would be a good one. Round 1.

Where at though.

AAMI Park is too small.

Marvel has 50k but in reality it's a shit ground to watch RL.

Same as MCG

Eden Park, Auckland should get magic round if it ever leaves Brisbane.

This thread reminds me, did El Diablo finally get locked up with a violent homosexual rapist?

I hope so

 

[Desert Qlder]

No fan should fly to Perth or Adelaide for Magic Round. Shit stadiums there guarantee a waste of money.

It’s completely, obviously the best option after Brisbane so naturally the NRL will look at it last after all the others

It's not though when you consider TV which is obviously the most lucrative source of income for the NRL.

NZ couldn't host a full round of NRL matches unless they want games starting at 10PM local time.

I think AAMI is big enough.
Marvel is probably okay bit AFL owns it so F that.

You wouldn’t want it anywhere bigger than AAMI. Warriors are the second biggest club here. They could anchor the Saturday and Storm Sunday, but you would need big games with big clubs to sell out the Friday night. It would need to be round 1 or 2 before the other code starts up.

Neither could Perth, same problem in the opposite direction.
I actually don’t think it’s a huge issue having some late games in NZ anyway as long as venue curfews allow.

Perth is fine, the earliest game would be midday local and the latest 6PM local which I don't see an issue with.

If NZ are ok with 10PM and 9:30PM kick offs then I have absolutely no issue with it going over there.

Not sure if it's possible before this tv deal is over but does anyone else think magic round should be a 25th round that doesn't take away home games from clubs?

For mine it should help get more money from the networks and will stop the situation where we lose home games in important markets like Melbourne and NZ etc.

Ideally if it doesn't happen, the 8 'home' games would be Sydney teams, but as I understand it the teams request to be the home side at magic round to get paid by the NRL.
