520 million cash isn’t a good tv deal lmao
eh? When ours is between 380-400 and their previous deal was around $370mill it is lol In fact to go from $370 ish to $520 ish is outstanding!!
Meanwhile ours went up less than $25mill a year.

The massive annual revenue difference ($2bill over last decade) is allowing them to do sht we could only dream of having the money to do! Come 2025 when they suddenly have an extra $150mill cash on top of the current massive revenue gap a year watch out.

Gather round
Tasmania
Seven year deal starting a few years down the track

meh
whats sad and ironic is you take the pss out of gather round but theyve taken a RL concept and made a sht load more money out if it! We got $2mill from Qlnd govt for ours, they are getting $80mill over 3 years of value out of SA govt. Sheesh.

Harsh

looked great packed for a day game

dogs future is to get a rebuild at belmore and live the homebush white elephant to collect dust

They’d want to quickly change their mind about building a CoE on the hill.

Haha, yeh they took English RL's idea and are now making a motza out of it, whilst we get a pittance. Sure looks like we are leading the way!

Like home. Cant wait to see the next phase of its development. Lots of exciting things planned in the pipeline.
The funny thing about new craven park is when they built it they built it like the dump that was the old craven park

grandstands that don’t run the full field, open to the North Sea on one end

What That I have expectations and standards of how a multi billion $ top tier sport should present itself in the 21st century? Yeh you're right I do!

Ur perception again. Pro sport sport means players paid to do it as career. Nothing about venue

Looks like it’s at the back of the hill and access the playing fields next to belmore

should’ve tried to make it all seats like manly

It’ll cut capacity on the hill and restrict any seating ever being built that side. May not be too late for them to alter the plans but the placement indicates they don’t plan on getting it redeveloped any time soon.

Incorrect, they built it a lot worse! We were promised the taj mahal and got a shed lol. It was horrible those first few years with greyhound and speedway and only two small stands. Winter Rugby and when the wind whipped off the North sea it seriously felt like you would freeze to death!
Massively improved since then and the next phase of plans look even more exciting.
