GABBA to host Grand Final

Thought I would include this here, since the GF being awarded to the Gabba has placed a spotlight on AF in Qld.

The QRL stated on 24.7 that the Rugby League Brisbane Juniors competition, for U6- U12, had c. 5000 players, in 497 teams. This is a very small figure for a RL heartland city of 2.2m (Not including Ipswich, since it has its own Ipswich Junior RL competition- 5000 figure doesnt include IJRL players).

There are also detailed figures for the record growth of AF in SEQ.

(scroll down to my posts#104 107 110 129).

So grand final time announced 6.30 PM Brisbane time.
Melbourne/Sydney with daylight saving will be 7.30 PM

Brisbane Saturday October 24th - Sunset 6.00 PM Twilight 6.25 PM- Last light 6.53 PM

A fairly good time for most people in Australia.
WA like Queensland don't have daylight saving so 4.30 pm start in WA
SA start 7.00 PM
NT Start 6.00 PM
 

Guess they've moved on. We saw Jet before the Boss a couple years back and all I could think was I never really appreciated them before. I bet 1 million Aussies would feel the same and 1 million more would fall in love for the first time.
Their choice though.
