Delhi Commonwealth Games

BSEMS would like to wish all the Australian Athletes all the best for the Commonwealth Games competition in New Delhi!

A few of the athletes experienced some last minute hiccups before departing andDr Hislop and Dr Vivers were happy to do their part for Queensland based competitors.

Team Coverage

The long NRL and AFL seasons have finally come to an end for 2010, and not without much drama. The Brisbane Broncos are enjoying a well earned break, but the Reds and Academy players will start their preseason over the next few weeks.
