Would Sharks v Roosters sell out any other Sydney venue aside from Shark Park?

Yes

 

[horrie hastings]

Could they potentially upgrade the north and south stands to be steeper?

The Northern end is just terraced seating near the fence and then hill, not having been to Shark Park for years the power lines used to goes across the back of the hill but i would imagine with all the developments they would have been moved by now ( not sure whether they have or not ) but also behind the hill are the mangroves so that might limit what they could do there, the Southern stand is virtually on the road as it is so would be tricky, the best bet would be extending the Western Stand ( ET stand ).

The power lines were removed years ago.

They're still there mate

 

[Cumberland Throw]

How in hell didn't sharks parlay that development into a 50/50 state gov total new 20k stadium

 

[horrie hastings]

They're still there mate

Yes looking at this pic done in Jan this year you can see the power lines stanchions to the left




Also with this video done about a year ago the powerlines are still there

 

[Suitman]

A massive staunton used to be positioned in the middle of the northern hill. That has been removed and was what I was referring to.
Yes, the power lines still go over the top, but the tower is no longer there.

I'd like to congratulate @horrie hastings for using the word Stanchion in a post.

Slightly o/t but i remember going to a night game at Shark Park in 1998 against the Roosters and walking back to the car along Captain Cook drive the normal powerlines were buzzing and crackling and sounding like they were sparking, it was eerie and almost felt apocalyptic.

Was that just before the Sharks went broke.

Was that just before the Sharks went broke.

Which time.

So the Las Vegas tickets went on sale today for club members with codes, and on sale to the GP from 2pm.
Here is all the seats that are available currently. Unsure if the sideline seats were already sold out properly or just haven't been made accessible fully yet. The first two bowls are on sale but the top one seems to be closed off.
