Appealing for common decency lol. Where was this mindset when he was patronisingly grandstanding about Port supporters needing to know their place and appreciate another failed year under Daddy?
VIC / Dan Andrews have just cancelled the 2026 Comm Games !
Sporting capital of the universe !

Rather than 'wildcard', I think we just need to look at how we can extend the finals by a week. Finals are the best part of footy, and to have it all over in four weeks is too quick. Figure out a way to properly work the 'double chance' and reward teams who earn it. Find the right balance of rewarding the team that is best on the day with the team that has been best throughout the season.

It's become one of those events you don't even realise that's on when it's happening.

I wonder if this is the first of more cancellations of these type of events. It is becoming clearer in the modern world these one off games events are increasingly difficult to stage with dwindling economic benefit.

The @PMalinauskasMP government has said it will not step in to host the 2026 Commonwealth Games because the cost-benefit analysis doesn’t stack up
Do we even have a pool up to standard? lol

Gone are the days that Comm Games are seen as a relevant sporting event. It's a weird group of countries that share a common coloniser. Serious competitors wouldn't have it as a priority on their schedule.
It's not 1982 anymore.

SA Aquatic Centre is competition standard pool but really lacking in spectator facilities. It's location is absolutely ****ing bullshit. Some serious greasing of palms went down when choosing that spot for the facility.

I agree with that, but also in a general sense, other varieties of world cups, championships, etc. Especially for a place like Melbourne that should have plenty of existing facilities and infrastructure.

Day 5 at Sports Day 2023: Australia wins Bronze in the Egg & Spoon race but disqualified in the Sack race for using a non-regulation hemp fibre sack.
Send the games to Tassie, another excuse to build a decent stadium there.
Poms drop the relay as the runner steps in doggie doo in the final leg.

I can't believe Dan Andrews would do this
Could they hold it in the Yabba?

Can't see why not, have to spread it around but, the Jube takes a beating this time of year and it's usually stuffed for finals.
