Travelled along Brisbane Road, Smith Street, Olsen Ave and from Surfers to Main Beach on Sunday and not one flag, bunting or sign celebrating the upcoming games! Db

Aunty ’Dora’ will be ringside when Jeff Horn fights in Vegas, surly the Premier has more important things to perform, like fixing the M1 before it comes to a complete standstill?

Why should we increase the tax break to any film company. They should be paying us for the use of our beautiful country, and the availability of all our talented people. Stuff them - Old chook

Federal Treasurer Morrison wants to cut company tax to 20% so they can employ more people yet won’t give one tax break for a film company which would give hundreds of skilled Queenslanders a job. Huh! Go for it AnnastaciaCurly Bells

The money was always there for Premier Anastasia to entice the Dora movie to the Gold Coast but she decided to play cheap politics and blame the Feds who already allow tax incentives for local filming. So blatant and so obvious Annastacia, come on, you're better than that. GT

It’s no wonder people holiday overseas a 12 day 4WD holiday in Arnhem Land $12,195. Barney

John, if you think Stephen Hawking believes in God now, you must have a very vivid imagination. Col H.

Bring on AFL. I’m over NRL on every sports page in the

Congratulations to all the intelligent people in SA - on a great win - only took you 15 years to realise what's going on - useless, socialists Labor Greens- are Gonski !! and

Gee Jarryd Jayne looked so happy to be back at Parramatta during their 54-nil loss to Manly. We miss you on the Gold Coast Jarryd. Old Titan

Just wondering if the new sculpture in Broadbeach on the roundabout on TE Peters drive is a representation of the council being a balls up. Jamie

I’d rather see the native wild life living in their habitats, than the land cleared and a bunch of smelly human beings living in boxes.

We did it we did it Well done Annastacia you make us proud to have you our Premier. James P

Can’t believe the Broncos signed Matt Lodge after all he has done in the past. It looks

like they would hire any misfit and thug that can win a premiership for them. I hope that it comes back to bite them on the bum in future especially with female supporters once they know the real Matt Lodge.

To see that the greenhouse gas emissions is real one only needs to look out to over the horizon & see the brown hue & that's our pollution.wasnt there 40 yrs ago only a bit over cities,

now it's a 360 degree smog carbon footprint.

How did Beattie extricate his fingers from the Comm Games pie only to get them stuck straight into the NRL pie? Has the suspicious aroma of the jobs for the boys club about it to me. Old Codja, GC

Saving koalas from extinction is simple really, compulsory replanting eucalypts along fencelines and allowing registered pet ownership with strict rules. Vaccination against clamidia which is slowly killing and sterilising them is the only chance they’ve got. No brainer really, get it done. ROSEY

Got my popcorn ready. Ready for the commonwealth games to show the world. Indigenous protests, traffic nightmares, swimming complex without a roof and the list goes on. Oh and Peter Beattie. Can’t wait. - Ellen

Why does Gold Coast Airport bother to have a website to advise of flight arrivals/departures if it is not updated? Yesterday JQ418 was still listed as ’15.30 ontime’ when it landed at 18.10! Same thing happened last week! Toota

So if you work your whole life, contribute to a super fund, save your money and buy some shares, all to support yourself in retirement & not be a burden to the country, you are considered wealthy? Wealthy in self pride, that's about all! Toota

Anastasia found Dora’s money from the motorists of Queensland! OCKY

Commonwealth Games where are the flags in the street to support the games? Why not put up a couple of Australia flags as well? The world is watching the gold coast. lawrie

Our worst nightmare, we may have to vote Malcolm in just to keep Bill out. Oh, the horror. GT

Ch 9 you say the football starts at 2.00 pm. It’s now 3.10 and still hasn’t started. Just ads and more ads. What a crock. JR.
