Magic round NRL makes me sick

The NRL  all way give Brisbane the Magic round 

And Give the Broncos away game at home why cant do a draw where Broncos got a home game for the last 3 years the Broncos got a away game at home because its magic round 

Why cant they take magic round to  Coffs harbour or to the bush like Tamworth or Dubbo  that way everyone got a away game

  • Because they need a bigger stadium for those days, Queensland also have more affinity for League so the crowd would be higher every day as oppose to say Accor. 

    I do think though Perth should get a go and maybe even Eden Park.

  • It's all about he money mate.

    At the end of the day the Eels play away games at home as well.

    Yesterday we played at home against the Tigers, but it was an away game.

    R13 against the Panthers is an away game played at home as well. 

     

     

    • Yes i know what you  are saying Blue Eel and LB

      But why ever year Broncos sirpose to get away game at magic round 

      Cant NRL  make the Broncos get home game because they got home game any way like week before n after they got a away game 

  • Agreed Nagic around should absolutely be a Broncos home games 

  • Because Brisbane pays a shitload for the privilege.

  • Two things as I've been to Magic Round several times. 

    Brisbane is the perfect spot for Magic Round. Decent sized stadium in an ideal location to access restaurants / bars afterwards or beforehand. Public transport options are good for those that need it. Weather at this time of year is also usually pretty good. 

    As for the Broncos getting the 'away' designation, I once thought as you did. Then I found out that Manly were getting paid a motza to allow it to happen. Essentially, Manly were using that game akin to Parramatta taking a game to Darwin. They were getting paid good money to do it. 

  • It might also have something to do with the Broncos season ticket holders. It is probably a lot easier to manage without having to worry about accomodating all the other supporters & corporates around them

    • Yep same reason it's an away game for the Dolphins also

  • That makes sense.

  • I honestly have no idea why it's needed .  It would be better served as old mates says , taking a round a year to the bush. You don't need to have all the teams lobbing on one stadium to promote the game.  Imagine an actual round Wheras not unlike us in NT ( however better strategically placed ) you take games that actually matter and are legit competition games to regional stadiums.  Canberra and Dragons in say Wagga ,  Eels and The Riff in Bathurst ( or where ever you get the point whichever has the best stadium capabilities  ) Canterbury and Manly in Beirut ... etc etc ... Regional Round , Grass Roots round .. whatever .  Sell it as giving something back instead of cheesy magic crap .
