Hailing from Brisbane alot of the athletic community down here are upset, but what did have to be taken into consideration was our current water situation. You guys that don’t know much about Brissy we are in one of the worst droughts in history and currently looking for other alternatives for our water supply.

So yeah if we haven’t got that sorted and won one of the bids I would have been suprised.
