The Vic's had it in Victoria earlier this year, so if the QLD club don't mind driving how come there was about 3 QLD cars there? Pretty small club :roll: :lol: , Trev 8) .
Fair go, Trev..........it's roughly a 4000km round trip for most Queenslanders to get to Bendigo :shock: :D

I suppose it's always a hard decision by the respective states as to where to hold the nationals. On the one hand you want somewhere central to get a good turn out, though on the other it's your nationals so you hold them where you want 8)
Yeah its the same when they go to queensland in 2011 they will be travelling the k's to get there......
So it really dont matter where they are were all still going to go to them......

QLD 2011 sound good (except when State of Origins on!! GO THE BLUES!!), bonus for us only have a 6000-7000km round trip rather than 8500km :D If it is in Camooweal then we only have about 3000km :D :D :roll: :lol: :lol: .

What about the smaller towns:
Rockhampton
Gladstone
Harvey Bay


In 2012 will it be WA? then 2013.............NT!! we should have about 20 FB/EK's in Darwin by then! :roll: :roll: :wink:

Might be speaking out of turn but sooner rather than later S.A. club may just slot into the equation too!
The adventure of the journey wherever the nationals are is just part of the whole event. Just planning and holidays needed.
