I agree. 7 at Win and 5 SFS, the SFS games can be blockbusters against Souths, Roosters, Bulldogs, Parra maybe Wests. Most of those games should get 20K plus not to mention the income from corporate for the Dragons. The Anzac game alternating between Dragons and Roosters.
Should be 5 at WIN, 5 at SFS, 2 at Jubilee (v Cronulla and one interstate team)

Getting into one of 5 parking stations in Accor is fine.

Getting into the area itself not so as traffic is always horrible.

The size of Sydney. The harbour splitting it has made some places not public transport friendly.

Take last night. Say if you lived in the suburb where Parra train, there is no direct train to Parramatta. Nor bus.

Even further out even fewer buses. Not ideal to be trying to get home in a reasonable time for work the next day
Getting in isn't usually the issue, it's getting out. It's costly and time consuming to drive to and from places like Accor, even worse places like Commbank where parking is more limited.

Efficient, plentiful and accessible public transport is what's needed.

When it is special event public transport. No doubt it is easier but for a random night, it can be 3 trains home to Doggies territory. In such cases the 20 min hold up getting out isn't so bad

A picture tells a thousand words! Few of them good ones in this case.

If you literally have never been there, then your opinion is meaningless.

Of the available grounds at which to play RL in Sydney, it is by no means the worst or even bottom five.

It's got issues, like most grounds, but it's a fairly reasonable venue. I don't even know what point this picture is triyng to make.

If your entire point is to stir shit, then f**k off.

It's an oval for a start.
Look how far away those eastern concourse seats are from the sideline.
Sure, it ain't the worst in Sydney, but it's still shit.

everyones opinion is meaningless unless you own the dragons lol. Doesn’t mean I can’t have one.
Look at the place, no cover, it’s an oval and fans are miles from the action, hardly any corporate boxes, grass hills etc etc.
it’s a throw back to the 70’s and not close to what an nrl club should be playing in. And it’s not just my opinion, look at the crowds there And the dragons financial performance. Even dragons fans don’t like going. Especially if there’s a bit of rain around.
Hopefully WIN gets a main stand to replace the hill and dragons drag themselves into the 21st century and move their big sydney games to the state of the art stadium about to open.
