Seven telling us that it was the Commonwealth Games organisers dictated that the athletes were not included.

And that the crowd has left and the athletes left before the end of the ceremony.

Seriously, my biggest disappointment was the lack of Commonwealth Games closing ceremony tweets tonight from @AusLoafer

So it cost $2 billion for the games.

And QLD already has a massive debt it can't pay back.

Worth it?

The games themselves were **** amazing and anyone who didn't attend, did actually miss out. The atmosphere was great, and yes they **** up the closing ceremony, but that was one **** end to an otherwise fantastic experience.

And the coast got a lot of enduring facilities from it. Remember it was getting the games that brought on the light rail and other infrastructure.

I still not the best use of $2Billion but not horrific. Not like spending double that in NSW to re-build existing stadiums.

I watched about 10 mins of it, thought it was crap and went to bed. Glad Australia agreed with me
