The Queensland Government has opened their Olympic Infrastructure Review for submissions from the public - this is our opportunity to have our say!

The New Zealand derby has a name and there’s something extra to play for.
The Wellington Phoenix have been gifted two taonga by mana whenua ahead of today’s inaugural Isuzu UTE A-League match with Auckland FC. Rangatira Liz Mellish and Dame Naida Glavish, from Te Āti Awa and Ngāti Whātua respectively, have named the New Zealand derby Mai te Raki ki te Tonga, meaning ‘From the North to the South’ in te reo Māori.
Te Āti Awa have also gifted the Phoenix a treasured taonga for Mai te Raki ki te Tonga matches in Te Whanganui-a-Tara.
They have crafted Ka Topa, meaning ‘to soar’ or ‘to rise’, which is a physical representation of the club’s life force and spirit.
Ka Topa was blessed by Te Āti Awa on Pito-one foreshore this morning before being presented to the Wellington Phoenix, who are now its guardians.
The taonga will be on display at Sky Stadium this evening and will be presented to the winner or the current holder (in the case of a draw) of Mai te Raki ki te Tonga matches in Te Whanganui-a-Tara, but the taonga will always remain in Wellington.
It was heartening to see more than 8k fans attend the Roar's home opener last night, but the same problems remain. Concerts destroy the quality of the pitch.
Perry Park is football's solution. We will continue to work to make a home for football in Brisbane a reality.

Very enjoyable watching young Thomas Waddingham again.
Fantastic Australian prospect. #BRIvSYD

Brisbane v Sydney FC
Half-time thoughts
⚽️ Both teams with plenty of huff and puff but lacking quality and execution
⚽️ Sydney dominating possession but mainly in the middle and back thirds
⚽️ Shocking pitch is definitely contributing to lack of quality

Just imagine how good tonight’s @brisbaneroar v @SydneyFC clash would be at a rocking Perry Park.
Boutique stadium, pristine pitch, actual football atmosphere.
Hope @DavidCrisafulli is paying attention because slogans mean nothing without actual action to back it up. #BRIvSYD
Another ripper of a surface served up at Suncorp Stadium tonight, thanks to the prioritising of music over football. Again.
Football needs a home in Queensland.

I’m a life-long Ronaldinho’s XI supporter, I remember my grandad saying to me, Evan our family has been a Ronaldinho’s XI family for generations. He said he’d disown me if I ever became a fan of the Cahill XI.

“We believe, at a very high level and just from initial indications, that we could get the stadium to a boutique, modular first-phase environment with an investment of around $10 million to $15 million,” Patafta said. Via @TheRoarSports #BrisbaneRoar #PerryPark @FundFooty
