The Premier is right. The only economic legacy we will have for decades after Games will be paying for it. Does anybody even remember where last Games were? – GB

You are correct Premier Palaszczuk, the Games will have a lasting effect on Gold Coast. Rates, rego, petrol, power. – Woodleigh.

The Premier says a legacy from the Comm Games will be export. Export what? The tens of thousands of Chinese-made leftover Games merchandise?

Another great rocker, Tom Petty of the Heartbreakers, has left the building, courtesy of cardiac failure at 66. Many will recall his part in The Travelling Wilburys. – David

With almost 60% of voting forms returned on the samesex marriage I wonder if the govt will release the percentage of votes made that are informal? Not the number of non-voters but those that took the time to say they did care on their return slips. – Wayne

I’m against CST and SSM. So guess makes me a P&NO.

Agree with Oldie that supermarket express lanes should only be used for a few items. The real problem is there are never enough check out operators and this causes hold ups for customers.

Oldie, rather than blame the poor check out chick why didn’t you say anything to the chap with the full trolley?

One thing is certain since the Vegas massacre is that open air concerts should never be held near highrise buildings even here in Australia. Hope the authorities realise that.

When will people openly discuss the role of violent, vengeful movies and video games in destroying our minds from a young age? – Mk

Rod Ashmore (GCB, 5/10) - Four Corners is the best (and only) program that put a lot of effort into their investigation, and then our shopping channels copy it next day. Intelligent people are watching this, the rest of you keep watching Home and Away.

The Mann cartoons lately have been spot on. Keep it up.

Imagine how the Titans under coach Henry would have gone, if he had Billy Slater or Darius Boyd at the back, instead of “The Dud” Haynes. –Dave

Hi, Can anyone confirm that the overhead speed cameras northbound St Smith Street are not in use?

Penny Toland’s so called breach occurred over 12 months ago so why charge her and all the candidates knew they had to have a dedicated bank account including Tom Tate. – Hallo

The CCC will never be in the same league as the original and the best CJC the real corruption watchdog that was established after the Fitzgerald Inquiry. – Andrew

The CST could of been used to ship the Comm Games athletes up and back from Brisbane. Thus freeing up the M1. Plus as a bonus they would get free soft drink on ship.

There is no problem with the M1, like there wasn’t 10 years ago. The problem is there are too many people coming here to live. We need a population cap. Problem fixed! – Pete

I don’t care when it happens or for which club but god I hope Shaun Fensom wins a premiership before he retires what a great role model for other players, fans and kids. well done champ. – Grumblebum.
