All that's happened today is the government has kicked the Gabba can down the road (it will need to be rebuilt in the medium term) and chosen a path with absolutely zero legacy for Brisbane.
In 2023, we'll have what we have now - a substandard Gabba and a training venue at Nathan
Queenslanders have made it clear to me they do not want to spend billions on new stadiums.
We will not demolish the Gabba.
We won’t be building a new mega stadium at Victoria Park either.

Meanwhile, this one's barely been touched since the 1970s.
The Gabba has been one of QLD’s favourite stadiums for more than a century. But it’s time to make it bigger and better than ever.
This major urban renewal project will connect Cross River Rail and the Brisbane Metro with more housing.
