intoronto 650 Posted November 11, 2011 Report Share Posted November 11, 2011 As I said, just give GC the keys and lets get outta here!!! Instead of stressing what is known say why your better! This presentation is not stressing the difference. Link to post Share on other sites

intoronto 650 Posted November 11, 2011 Report Share Posted November 11, 2011 Why is she saying generic things. "Village" "easy access" that is Hambantota. She needs to stress the venues are the best etc.. Finally something that stresses the difference!! Another flag issue, I believe i saw the USA flag in the presentation .

Alexjc 354 Posted November 11, 2011 Report Share Posted November 11, 2011 Back again...Gotta agree, a typically bland Australian Sports Nut presentation, same old same old. Yawn. No wonder nobody wants to host these anymore. At the moment, on freshness, Hambantota leads with the compact games idea...But GC has just thrown up it's winning card, the Theme Parks!

Athensfan 1081 Posted November 11, 2011 Report Share Posted November 11, 2011 The quality of these presentations doesn't exactly solidify the validity of the CWG... I'm not saying they don't have a place, just saying the presentations don't inspire confidence.... Link to post Share on other sites
intoronto 650 Posted November 11, 2011 Report Share Posted November 11, 2011 WHY would he say "Delhi was the best experience" that is like complimenting Hambantota. Link to post Share on other sites

barrack 75 Posted November 11, 2011 Report Share Posted November 11, 2011 is it just my feed, or is the transition music cutting everyone off before they're done with their segment? Link to post Share on other sites

I'm not saying they don't have a place, just saying the presentations don't inspire confidence.... But the Commonwealth Games are different, it's not the Olympics and the vote is taking place in a resort in a tiny Carribbean country rather than in a huge convention centre. The presentations are a bit ropey but it's just a different scale, different approach. Link to post Share on other sites
intoronto 650 Posted November 11, 2011 Report Share Posted November 11, 2011 Finally something to distinguish themselves. I think the final speech seals it. Link to post Share on other sites
markun 74 Posted November 11, 2011 Report Share Posted November 11, 2011 They have to get it, they really do. I'd love to see the Games spread out across the Commonwealth but Hambantota is a step too far for me. Link to post Share on other sites

Soaring 182 Posted November 11, 2011 Report Share Posted November 11, 2011 I am surprised, I was expecting the presentations and locale to be much more than this. I guess I am looking at it through the prism of the Olympic presentations. Link to post Share on other sites

I guess I am looking at it through the prism of the Olympic presentations. I think you probably are, yes. Even the FIFA World Cup presentations last December looked small compared to what potential Olympic hosts put on for the IOC. Link to post Share on other sites
