You know you could google this stuff before making up bs

You could learn that lesson. Having the capability to be expanded to 25k doesn't mean it is being expanded to 25k. To expand to 25k they need funding, so where is that coming from?

afl blah blah blah

State of origin locked in for 2025 and 2028. That must burn, especially as we'll get bigger crowds than Brisbane lol

Don't you see the irony?

A State of Origin match between Queensland and NSW in Perth habitually draws bigger crowds than the Reds' highest attendance.

It proves why it's a waste of time putting a team in Perth.

There would two tenants in this $300mill stadium you want built. Both struggle to fill 50% of current capacity. why would the govt spend money on that? Any sports event that needs more than a 20,500 capacity is played in the state the art $1.2 bill 60k capacity stadium.

Until either of the two tenants, or a future NRL club, needs a better home stadium no major public money is getting spent.

There were no tenants at Lang Park when it was redeveloped 22 ears ago.

Ovals are inappropriate for a rugby league game. The ARLC needs to stop selling Origin to Adelaide, Melbourne and Perth until these backwater shitholes build an appropriate rectangular stadium.

If fans didnt watch rectangular sport at ovals youd have a point.
But seeing as rugby leagues biggest crowds are in ovals you dont

What NRl should do is play less games in a sht city like Brisbane that doesnt even have a decent sized stadium lol
How bigs the new Brisbane AFL stadium going to be? Maybe they could move rugby league games there to get a decent crowd?

Must burn that you're stuck with a 22 year old stadium thats too small when AFL is getting a brand spanking new one?
