New SFS looks so good. Hopefully, Souths can move there. Dragons should play 3 or 4 games there as well.

and instead of listening to the doom and gloom of vlad strike a deal with other the tenants and tenants of other NSW govt stadiums for reciprocal admission when they play each other. NRL to get of its arase and work with the tv partners to schedule those games at decent KO times, get 25k plus into the place

Roosters
Souths
Dogs
Eels
Dragons
Tigers

could all have reciprocal deals to boost crowds at sfs and commbank/accor

Souths sure, why would Dragons move there, they already have 12 stadiums in their rotation. And if you're removing some stadiums where they currently play, which ones ?

SCG for the Anzac game sure.
They should be playing more games at WIN not less
Kogarah doubt they'll want to leave

Kogorah is good for amateur sport and thats it, convert it into a proper local community sports venue and move 5 games to SFS and the other 7 to WIN, with lobbying for a new stand at WIN to take it up to 23k seating. Kogorah has had 3 games this year and the crowd avg there is 8.1k! last pre covid season they had 5 games for under 10k avg. Fans dont want to go.

5 games at SFS
Souths
Roosters
Eels
Dogs
Tigers

with reciprocal game memberships. So Sydney Dragons fans get 10 games for price of 5 and get to watch games at SFS, and Commbank stadium. Sorted.

Money talks - why the NRL grand final will be held in Sydney

Peter V’landys may have threatened to shift the grand final to Brisbane, but the figures don’t add up.

This Says the nsw govt was paying 4 million pa pre covid to host the gf

now it says the nrl has done a deal where all the gold pass holders pay a fee which instead raises 3 to 4 million

Once again PR, home clubs are not going to let thousands of people into their games for free, especially opposition supporters. That is not how it would work. Clubs would need to charge more for memberships that give access to those games, and then the home club charges the away club for each member that actually attends. That is how it works in Melbourne, you can either buy a home membership or a home and away membership.

Stadiums keep the revenue from food and drink, bigger crowds attract better stadium sponsors and more stadium membership revenue. So filling the stadium has clear financial benefits for the SMC. So what's in it for the clubs? Well the SMC should be passing some of this on to the clubs in better rental rates. That's why doing it this way across the clubs and stadium sitting under the same SMC is the way to go.

Most games would be lucky to have 1-2,000 away team fans at it. Thats only around $40-70k ticket revenue. If they get a better rental deal akin to that then they're no worse off, and the big crowds and better atmosphere attract more of their own fans to attend which sells more memberships. Not to mention being reciprocal it means far better value for their own memberships and should boost sales accordingly. Its def financially possible for clubs and SMC.

Obviously Kogarah. They might not want to but like your club and any other Sydney clubs looking to play all their games at small suburban stadiums they have to deal with the reality of the situation.

Not surprising. With all the industrial actions that nurses, teachers, train drivers - all strong Labor voting professions - have been taking, they'll look to trim 'fat' from wherever possible to appeal to their base.

Sure, but there is no chance of Sydney clubs ever, ever agreeing to let oppo fans in for free. Simply not going to happen.

Then they are stupid and will once again miss the chance they have had afforded to them to grow their active fanbases.
But all may not be lost. When Eels moved into commbank they offered free kids ticketed membership with every adult GA membership. Storm have given a free 3 game membership to all registered RL players in Victoria. Maybe there is hope yet!

 

[Perth Red]

Interesting to read that the new christchurch stadium is predicted to turn over $425mill over 25 years with just one part time tenant playing 5 home games there (plus events). IF NRL could build a stadium with three tenants surely it'd be a nice money maker?

For the record, this was the first plan for Parra Stadium way back in the day.
It was kyboshed by the friends of Parramatta Park at the time.
Thank god it was. Its roof was worse than the original SFS!!

Abdo on tv at the moment floundering his way through stadium strategy

They have no plan.. every home team needs to have a local community fortress..

Yeah except Souths , roosters and Canterbury

He talks a lot and says very little. His comment that "people are building smaller stadiums around the world" was laughable to try and justify why NRL clubs should be playing in sub 20k dumps. Gould for once talked the most sense lol

The best stadiums in the world I think are the MSL one's all new and sub 30k

The new Castleford stadium looks pretty good and will only hold 15k.
