The NRL community is expressing concern for the state of Suncorp Stadium's surface after the Broncos and Bulldogs game left it torn up.
Despite the Broncos' impressive performance, with Adam Reynolds shining and Selwyn Cobbo excelling in the No.1 jersey, the focus shifted to the deteriorating field.
Suncorp's condition ahead of Magic Round, where all teams will play in Brisbane, is sparking worries due to more rain in the forecast.
The event typically generates $120 million for Queensland's economy, making it a crucial fixture on the NRL calendar.
As reporter Phil Rothfield pointed out, the ground was already showing signs of damage only a week before the first game, prompting concerns about its ability to withstand the upcoming matches.
Former Broncos player Denan Kemp echoed these sentiments, questioning the reason behind the sudden deterioration of the surface.
The issue adds to the growing unease over whether Suncorp Stadium will be able to hold up amidst the busy schedule of games leading into Magic Round.
