We were talking about funding: Government wanting to spend 6 billion - I pointed out PPPs is part of one of the proposals.

You said PPPs were not used to fund stadiums - freeways yes but not stadiums. Your words

I pointed out that they indeed used to fund stadiums.

you keep changing your point - from funding - where I mentioned PPP - to who was running the stadium - now to who would be constructing. I am happy to have the discussion - but you have to be consistent, you have to acknowledge where you get things wrong, and you have to be an adult.

So I will leave this topic here for now and return to it when new news comes in.

yes fwed
the govt pays private companys to build stadiums

thats public money, tax payers money used
not private you fool


for the 40th time
Private consortiums do NOT build major stadiums in Australia , never have , never will
Not sure how clearer this can be

Avoiding answering by idiotic deflection attempts is what you excel in.

Can we get back to the stadium -

The ridiculous QSAC idea is dead, leaving only a redeveloped Gabba or a new Victoria Park or North Harbour stadium proposals. Cant see the North Harbour stadium proposal getting up to be honest. Way too extravagant and pricey.

Anyway, I came across the following Youtube video that provides some good insights into the LNP thinking and politics in QLD.

Okay - seems that 6 billion is for a whole of precinct proposal put forth by Arcadis - different to the one in Quirks review - includes much more than a stadium

"Quirk estimated the cost of a stadium at Victoria Park to be $3.4 billion. Arcadis has estimated the cost of a stadium, a new arena, a permanent aquatic centre and a deck over the Inner City Bypass to be a combined $6 billion."




so we need to be careful citing figures and make sure we are quoting the right ones okay.

Now that is clear -

For the extra money I do like to Arcadis proposal - a good legacy to be left behind - will be unlikely though to get up

But the 3.4 billion stadium design - could be a goer.

for your reading pleasure - some good sources too

When you say 7 billion your are referring to the Victoria Park precinct proposal - the Victoria park stadium proposal (which is different) is not budgeted anywhere near that. The 7.1 or thereabouts budget is for all stadia /venues associated with the Olympics - which includes federal funding.
