Australians- Information about Gold Coast United/Rubina Suburb

[pasion1]

Hey guys. Im moving to Australia for a year. I'll be in Queensland, near the gold coast (Sippy Downs suburb/Uni Sunshine Coast). Im wondering how far that is from the Gold Coast United Stadium. I wanted to catch a few A-League games during my stay

I think that's actually closer to Brisbane than Gold Coast.

use googlemap ?????

I don't want to disappoint you but A-League really sucks. But man, you have to watch Rugby Union and A-Football here.

Is it really that bad? I mean the MLS here is pretty good, or at least half decent (at times) lol. thanks for the help guys.

I'll be for sure getting into Aussie Rules football.

aussie rules? that won't be too difficult ... same goes for rugby ... it'll be easy to get into watching those sports ... but if you can get into cricket, and actually follow a match, then I'll be impressed ...

It's not a sport!

When there's any talk f Cricket, and Indian has to be there.

I think Cricket is good when you have the patience to endure it. If you get into Cricket, it will be Great and heart-stopping sometimes.

I tried to get into cricket, but the Southerner in me was like "naw".

I watched it a few times, but all my thoughts were "what the **** is going on". I think it would be a game like golf for me, fun to play, but boring as hell to watch.

yeah mate your actually going to be living on the sunshine coast which is about an hour north of brisbane... the gold coast is an hour south so you'd be at least 2 hours from robina...

thanks mate. I'm really looking forward to going. Always been a dream of mine to visit Australia since I watched the Road Warrior at age 5
