Some parts of australia were dealing with covidQuestion, how come when Sydney was given the Olympics there was such celebration etc yet Brisbane didn’t even get a major announcement where the country awaited the decision with baited breath.
FTFY.And yes - long before the IOC said Olympics could only be held between July &September.first half of August.
collingwood would move away from mcgIf they build new stadium in Victoria Park what happens to gabba
Should be at a temporarily converted suncorp stadiumAfter seeing the swimming in Paris, the US Olympic trials, and the proposed set-up for LA, I’m not sure how swimming can go back to a “normal” venue again. It’s going to feel so lacklustre now, but I guess we might not have much choice.
It would be demolished. This is why labor has rejected victoria park. They have spent millions building a train tunnel to the gabba.If they build new stadium in Victoria Park what happens to gabba
The libs. The libs will either cancel the games or build victoria park i would think. My guess is the former is their preferred option unless the feds step it to find the games.Who is favourite winning the QLD election
All 3 venues mentioned have a roof.Should be at a temporarily converted suncorp stadium
nah, big shade sail and heated waterAll 3 venues mentioned have a roof.
Suncorp would need one too, especially given its a winter games.
Government don’t seem to be behind it. Just make it happen.

Pretty sure it’s IOC rules that it must be publicly funded.
Poorly worded 2am post.Huh what? What is 'public funded' anyway?
Do you mean 'taxpayer-funded' or 'government-funded' or 'private-funded'?
2056 Melbourne bid. Olympic stand/Docklands stadium will probably need replacing by then.Slightly off topic, but next time Oz bid for the Games, the Fox sisters have to be part of the team that lobbies IOC members.
Might not get the Games again until 2072 at the earliest, maybe 2100, but we will bid again before that.
Melbourne wont make a bid for the winter Olympics in July unless climate change has really warmed things up.2056 Melbourne bid. Olympic stand/Docklands stadium will probably need replacing by then.
