ANZ slippery surface in the spotlight

the prob with ANZ/telstra is it's been a sh*t surface since it opened in 1999. usually all new stadiums have a brekaing in period but almost a decade on it still has problems. it's not usual to see heaps of turf fly up every week nor is it to see players sliding all over the place.

what i'm surprised about it's that its been allowed to continue for so long. i rememebr there was a period years ago where they ahd to replace a larger portion of it blaming some bacteria for the sh*t surface, but i've heard peopel in the press saying it's actually due to the type of grass being grown there which is lonegr and slipperier tahn other places
