First off well done to the mighty Phoenix for the win over Perth. Anyways while holidaying on the Gold Coast I decided to go along to GC vz NQ Fury game. Fowler was sh*te  and Smeltz looked good although Cullina was impressive.
What I was impressed with was that there were free shuttles/buses to and from the game from all areas of the gold coast.
I think this was a great way to get people there and maybe something for the nix to think about????

If people can't catch a bus or train to the stadium and walk 700metres there is something wrong with them

The stadium is adjacent to the main transportation hub for Wellington. free services would just be abused.

It didn't help their crowd much. With a team like that, free buses and ended with a crowd less than the Ring of Fire

oh....and better weather

They still had a shocking crowd for all that free transport - not very good evidence to substantiate your case.

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

hmmm from the BB and a few handles later, 700 meters might seem like 5 miles for some!!

If the club put on a free Airbus A320 I'd definitely make use of it.

Simple. Relocate the Bencher uphill from the stadium then just roll down to the RoF!

You aren't taking into account the lazy fatties (me) who will then be required to walk uphill so as to get to the BB after the game.

" Palmer probably owns the buses in the Gold coast maybe he is the bus...." - He's the same size if that counts for anything.
