I was waiting for KP's input 2B

Though to be fair... there's been a sheet load of stabbings in Brissy over the last year - although i don't really fit the general demographic of the victims

I think the real question would you rather watch the roar play week in week out, or the tards.

I thought the real question would be does your girl want to go to Brisbane or Melbourne?
 
 
the answer to 2ndbest is ...no matter if you are in Brisbane or Melbourne there is football

Never been to Brissy, but I've had 11 wonderful, stab-free years in Melbourne, and I love it.

Stabbing seems to becoming the favourite pass time here in NZ at the moment too!
Proud to have attended the first 175 Consecutive "Home" Wellington Phoenix "A League" Games !!

I've been inflicted with 3 seasons of the Roar... and six of the Lions (much more acceptable) and the odd Origin game... as well as countless S14 and a coupla Beldisloe's...

I know the answer to that question FM...

The real question is... which one of us is closer to the other side/state/city... and I think I know the answer to that too lol

My New Zealand plan - very short version:

South Island = National Park
Wellington = National Museum
[everywhere else] = 'as you were...'

Gotta go with Bris bro. Great city on the river, awesome climate (predictable unlike Melbs) plus you've got access to Gold and Sunshine coast. I'd be back there in a heart beat when uni's over. (i'm even contemplating a masters at GC, would be the SH*T)

Melbourne - Tardistan's one redeeming feature is that it's not Queensland.

I went to Townsville for Scotland v Japan in RWC 03. North Queensland makes Alabama seem progressive.

Melbourne has two good football bars - The Charles Dickens and the Keepers Arms - I've not heard of any football bars in Brissie.

Just avoid the Muzzas doing burnouts at the Bell St maccas and you'll be sorted.

When Hibs, went up, to win the Scottish Cup - I wisnae there - furfuxake!
