Please no. That place sucks.

A few months ago I remember listening to an interview hosted by Whateley (I think) on SEN and they were interviewing whoever was in charge of the MCG. During that interview he was asked the question about the Storm potentially playing a game at the MCG (this was after the 9 news report on the Storm wanting to play a game there which is why I listened to the interview). He mentioned that the Storm hadn't put in a request yet but it most likely wouldn't get approved during Gather Round because they want to preserve the playing surface due to the constant action it was seeing. I might try and find the interview if I can and post it.

I heard that interview. MCG also said they prioritise marquee events. SOO yes, but not 40k v Warriors.

RL is great at Marvel. Crowds were excellent there last season. 35k - 40k is a great atmosphere there.

Nothing wrong with the Storm playing at marvel if they don’t get the mcg.

It's slowed right down since around Tuesday. Threat of wet weather looks to be putting people off buying (outside of the main grandstand which is sold out). Fingers crossed that any rain on Saturday is restricted to the morning.
