An enclosed, multi-purpose stadium on the harbour.

Its planned to be retractable, which makes sense in somewhere as cold as tassie. Good that it can be reconfigured for rectangular games as well, Storm have a good following in Tassie and could play some games there maybe.An enclosed, multi-purpose stadium on the harbour.
It is simply not necessary. Fans detest Australia’s only roofed multi purpose stadium (Marvel) and also the only other multi purpose stadium (Accor). They could build a regular 27k oval stadium for $350m, and $150m on a 12k rectangular stadium elsewhere if and when they get an A League club and have a much better outcome for all sports.
Is Tasmania's planned AFL stadium a 'bold vision' or a 'flashy headline'?
Plans for a $750 million AFL stadium in Hobart divide opinion, with some seeing it as big step towards a Tasmanian team but others scoffing at the price amid a pandemic.
$750 million for a 27k stadium....Geez thats crazy. And the new SFS will be well over $800 million for just a 42k stadium. The stadium costs are just getting out of control.An enclosed, multi-purpose stadium on the harbour.

High cost is partly due to being built on land partially reclaimed from the sea, like Optus in Perth. Plus the roof and moveable seats add to the cost.
The dogs own the land at Liverpool. So if the tigers are onboard I don’t think the dogs would say no. It would be the start of the dogs moving all there facilities out that way. If you check out how much land they have in that area. You’d have to think that the tigers would end up the lesser tenant
And that stand only existed because of its original E-W configuration
Wouldn't MacArthur want to play in MacArthur? There is already a team representing Western Sydney.
Their CofE and LC is at Belmore isnt it? That's 20km away from Liverpool.
Its only 20km and the difference between playing at a run down Campbelltown and a new stadium is pretty significant. I suppose it will depend on rent and demand. Would be an easier sell for sponsors thats for sure.
We are constantly being told that Sydneysiders will not travel around town for games. If 20km is nothing, then we don't need a stadium in Liverpool, as it is 16km from Parramatta.
Accor is sht house and probably one of the reasons Bulldogs needed a $5mill grant from the LC to pay the bills, fans don't want to sit in a large empty stadium and I wouldnt think its easy selling a box in a place with as much atmosphere as the moon to corporates. the throw in how shthouse it makes the game looks on TV there and we come to the conclusion Accor should not be home to anyone!
A roof in Tasmania is highly practical, and there’s no real inner city land available for a ‘regular’ oval.An enclosed, multi-purpose stadium on the harbour.
