Look the accommodation is very nice

Whether Marley Brown stands up to 8 games a weekend ...is another matter ......the in goal at the clubhouse end is dangerously close to the League's club

Bet DCE can't wait to see Gladstone again .....

The in goal at the league clubhouse end is probably more dangerous ...you get a slippery day and a player sliding in at full pace and they will hit a concrete wall

Knock the club house down simple ... widen them in goals .

Pigs arse ..they do the best sticky pulled pork and spicy chicken ..puts hair on your chest
 
Couple of points - They mention the possibility of playing a third of the games in Townsville and a third in Brisbane.

****If this happens... NO Broncos games at Suncorp and NO Cowboys games in Townsville.

If the players of 16 NRL teams are in islolation, how is that good for the Gladstone economy?
 
Happy tiger ...
