Staying on track with the right message
Someone has forgotten to tell Queensland Rail that the Sunshine Coast Direct Rail Line isn’t a thing anymore.
Video advertisements are still promoting the Labor initiative on the Nambour train line, despite an LNP reimagining of the project as The Wave – a much cooler name, by the way.
You would think QR would be right across this given it’s kind of their patch, but commuters are still getting the old pitch.

She loved what she saw and was especially impressed by the bloke playing the “tuba thing.”
A little lost in translation – it was a didgeridoo – but I suppose, it’s a literal translation.

Two Comiskey projects in a month have now been called in by the Deputy Premier, Jarrod Bleijie.

The NRLW is showing other footy codes how to play a game that will attract sponsors and patrons.
There’s no shrinking violets out there either.
Take former Beerwah Bulldog Reegan Hicks, who debuted for the Broncos last weekend.

The opposition has been warned.
