NRL: NRL chairman Peter V'landys spoke to the media following Brisbane locking in Magic Round until 2027.

Magic Round is set to remain in Brisbane until at least 2027, with the Queensland capital beating out several bids from other cities.

Ahead of the fifth instalment of Magic Round, Australian Rugby League Commission Chairman Peter V’landys held a press conference outside Suncorp Stadium to announce the new deal.The only place to watch every game of Magic Round LIVE with no ad-breaks during play is Fox League, available on Kayo. New to Kayo?“In anything you do, you need good partners and need people to get in the trenches with you. There has never been anyone better than the Queensland Government.

They were there for us during Covid, they were there for us when we needed them for the Grand Final, they were there for Magic Round.”“It was a very easy decision for us. Although they screwed us on price and weren’t the highest bidder, we had no option because there’s only one Caxton Street,” V’landys quipped.

“It’s a very good investment for the Queensland Government. It’s not just about Magic round. It’s about business and about commercial return.When asked which other cities bid for Magic Round, V’landys preferred to keep that information confidential. “I think I should leave that in confidence because no one likes losing so I don’t want to announce that,” he said.
