    The Game Future NRL Stadiums part II

    It has been stated for a while about the projected population growth in the SW corridor. But Penrith will also have population growth. From the naked eye, a stadium, south of the airport might have been more applicable. But the Panthers were good at lobbying. While with the Tigers, they are all...

    The Game Future NRL Stadiums part II

    One of the reasons why Penrith is getting funding is because Bluebet is located in Western Parkland City, which is part of a strategy to divide Sydney into three cities. In the other two cities, at Central River City there's Commbank and Accor, while in Eastern Harbour City, there is Allianz.

    Socceroos played in Canberra tonight where 25,023 attended the game. All we need is a few more major events at old Bruce Stadium to convince the pollies about a new venue...

    Leichhardt Oval needs more than $30 million. Leichhardt is up against AAMI Park, Commbank Stadium, Allianz, Suncorp, QCB Stadium, Cbus Stadium, Macdonald Jones Stadium and pretty soon a redeveloped Bluebet Stadium. Now Souths moved to Accor Stadium more than 15 years ago. They do have an option...

    But the grand final and state of origin are still held at Accor.

    The Game Future NRL Stadiums part II

    Having three "home" grounds is pretty excessive. If Leichhardt Oval doesn't receive any funding, then in the short and medium term, the Tigers should play out of Accor and Campbelltown. Now Accor is far from ideal with it's large capacity and configuration , but the Tigers COE is at Concord...

    The Game Future NRL Stadiums part II

    The IOC is operating on a "new norm". The new norm is about reducing costs of staging the Olympics, such as reducing infrastructure and the use of existing or temporary venues. Plus in the future, i am assuming that the IOC would love to see more bids from many cities in future Olympiads. And...

    2024 Crowd Watch

    I also think Magic Round should be an added round, not a round where a team loses a home game.

    2024 Crowd Watch

    If Kogarah can't get funding for upgrades and the Rabbits move to Allianz, then what you suggested becomes a possibility. Since I am from the Gong side of the merger, I'll be fair. Have seven home games at Win, five home games at Allianz and two "away" games against Roosters and Rabbits. So you...

    2024 Crowd Watch

    I don't think the Dragons are on the nose in Wollongong, but more of a case that they don't play regular home games at Win stadium every fortnight, like the Steelers used to do. And of course since 2010, the club has been run horrendously. But just like every fan base, they want to see a team...

    They can refurbish both Bellerive and Launceston. I don't understand why they need a new expensive stadium in Hobart, especially when the team is going to split up the home games in two areas.

    Didn't Brisbane win the bid on the premise that they were only going to upgrade existing venues?

    South Sydney Rabbitohs issues

    Demetriou knows that he is in trouble. He could be gone before ANZAC Day.

    South Sydney Rabbitohs issues

    It all comes down to Demetriou. He let Reynolds go. A halfback who gave the side direction and was the glue that held the team together. He gambled on young Illias, who barely played any lower grades thanks to Covid with restrictions and cancellations in 2020 and 2021. A couple of years later...
