I think that the Nationals is a fantastic event that the NSW club should be very proud of.
I would be more than prepared to pay higher fee's for such a great event.
The facilities at Wakefeild park are top notch, and versitile to boot, given the ability to run several different events at the one venue.

I too travel a fair distance to attend each year, and while I think that at some point I will drag the Cobra north for an event, I would not be keen on doing it every year.

Goulburn is a very central venue for the Nationals and it is only logical that NSW would have large attendance numbers for an event in their own state, I think you would be able to count on one hand how many Victorians would be able to make the treck north if the Nationals where held in QLD, and vice versa if they where held down south.

My two bobs worth.
