Heads should roll for even considering this

SCG trust should be telling the AFL to f*ck right off, what's the bet they've bought some brown paper bags...f*ck the AFL, they've already ruined the MCG test with those crappy drop in's.

 

[Twizzle]

f**k no

 

[Timbo]

Can those f**king merkins just f**k off and die?

They ruined ANZ for 95% of it matches so they could play the odd semi there, and now they're trying to ruin the SCG.

If you're so f**king important, piss off and build your own 35,000 seat stadium.

The SCG commissioned a committee to look at drop in pitches?

My hairy butt

The SCG commissioned a committee to see how much money AFL will pay more like it

 

[Incorrect]

Kudos to the previous Admin at the SCG. SMH has an article detailing how they intentionally had the new stands built in such a way that would make it near impossible for drop in pitches to be towed on to the ground and dropped in like they are at Adelaide and Melbourne.

Lol.

The AFL will probably find a research study into how the wickets can be air lifted in knowing them.

The swans should just p off to the show ground and share a home with GWS.

This is next level if it’s true. What a mastermind

 

[Mr Angry]

Sell your soul to the devil, he will come to cash the cheque.

One must wonder how cricket grounds survive in other parts of the world...………..

Greed, well done Cricket Australia, killing your own game for a cheap dollar.

Shame.

It still would have to be agreed by the members, etc I’d assume

Members only have a vote through two board members, I don’t think they’d have a say outside of that.

Weird headline from the SMH, why would the other codes care about drop ins at the SCG? This smells like them not wanting to openly criticise the AFL.
