Favourite away venue and why?

Leichardt Oval

I actually quite like Toyota Park. As a broncos fan, I only really get a chance to see NRL games at big stadiums like ANZ and Suncorp, and although they're both fantastic - it's a great change to be able to sit on a hill watching a top class game of footy. SFS also isn't too bad. (I've only ever been to Toyota Park, Telstra, SFS and Leichhardt outside of Brisbane).

suncorp - i just wish there was more atmosphere broncos fans arent the most vocal
Ronson/caltex/endevour/toyota/Shark park is ok Very good catering compared to most footy grounds.

Leichhardt. Just perfect on the hill on a sunny Sunday arvo. quote]

Same here.

Can't wait to be there on Saturday.

Parra Stadium - only been there once and the Sharks lost - but it's one of the best grounds for getting a feel for the game. Was staying close to the ground so I dont know about transport

Canberra Stadium is a top class facility - it gets no atmosphere when the Faiders are playing - but you only need to turn up to a brumbies game to see just what the potential there is for it to be a top quality RL ground. Great view from all seats, cheap tickets, beer & is plentiful (but over priced)
Possibly the worst venue for getting in and out of though.

For any ground I like North Sydney Oval, it just has a great feel to it. But for any full time NRL ground the SFS is the best.

I don't like to be mean but for the worst, it easily goes to the Sydney Showground. That is the only ground where after leaving I have decided not to go back there, and I really doubt I will in the future either. Don't get me wrong, I love going to footy games but the Showground has horrible viewing, ridiculous food prices and basically everything else wrong with it. I hope the Dogs start to play all their games at Telstra.

Away games, what are they for a Broncos fan? Means sitting watching the telly.

cambo, jade and telstra!

Canberra Stadium.

Great view and the fans are always friendly.

I've been to every Roosters V Raiders game for well over a decade.

And for the best part of that time my team was on the wrong end of a hiding.

I make a weekend of it. It's now a ritual.

Brookie is great. Reminds me or Leichhardt!
Gosford is very good. Seriously, its an amazing place. For those people who havn't been there, its truely a ground/area that NEEDS and NRL team.
Penrith was nice aswell. I had the best away game at penrith last year. I love the cool mountain air too!

Parramatta Stadium. It's a good ground, it's close enough to the town centre where there's a few decent pubs and other things to do, and of course, the Parramatta Leagues Club.

Suncorp is a great ground for easy access to food, drink and facilities and to watch the game. Rarely encountered any queues even with large crowds. Its the easiest ground to get into and out of. Broncos supporters are usually good natured towards us Dragons supporters, so I have no complaints there - but the squealing pre-teens and their stupid clapper thingys are annoying.

Aussie stadium has a great view of the field most anywhere you sit, but getting in or out of the Moore Park area is a nightmare unless you walk down to Central. Atmosphere at big games can be absolutely unreal though.

I always enjoyed Campbelltown Stadium, having lived in the district until 2 years ago. Good viewing and easy to get in or out. Some of the night games there have had the most memorable, electric atmosphere that I have ever felt at the footy. Converts you into a Wests supporter for a while when you get swept along with it.

Go and stand next to the Raiders Army if you think the place doesn't have atmosphere...

I have to say that I hate Parramatta Stadium since they replaced the Hills with seating. The cheap seats are all allocated & there aren't enough of them. The advertising hoardings also block your view of the big screen.

In it's favour, though, is a very efficient bar!!

Granted the Raiders Army makes a darn good fist of creating atmosphere - but one bay of committed diehards does not fill the whole stadium with atmosphere.

Leichhardt Oval. No question. Great hill, close to the action, good natured crowds. It was even better in the days when Laurie Nichols would spend the afternoon doing laps of the ground shadow boxing.

It seems like years since Saints have played there and it won't be happening any time soon with the move to Telstra. A real shame IMO.

Indeed. The last time I was there was when Saints flogged Balmain in 1999. Choc was on fire that day...

Choc ALWAYS tore us apart

I don't know what he had against Balmain but he saved his best performances for when he played us. I still have nightmares about the corrosponding game at WIN that year
