The Game Future NRL Stadiums part II

[some11]

The proposal sounded too good to be true didn't it.

Half-arsing ANZ is just such waste, you're only going to get one opportunity to redevelop it.

If I had my way I'd make the SFS Sydney's premium big stadium. 70k capacity best Rugby stadium on Earth. NOT because of the Roosters, I know we wouldn't f**kin fill it, but because it would bring big events back to the CBD where they belong and save us and the poor sods who waste their time flying in from trekking out to Deadsville on a Wednesday night.

Rebuild Olympic as a nice 50k ground and for the love of god try and get some life into the wasteland that is Olympic Park.

Where on earth did the $3 Billion figure come from?
An ambiguous statement in the first sentence...

Sydney's stadium wars have taken a dramatic turn, with ANZ and Allianz Stadiums potentially receiving only glorified make-overs after Premier Gladys Berejiklian pulled the pin on a secret $3 billion proposal.

and a throwaway line in the last sentence

Mr Ayres has presented the premier with a plan for a more than $3 billion spend over the next 10 years

Yet, in the second last sentence, Gladys says this....

"If we have to spend more, we will," Ms Berejiklian told 9NEWS.

The govt has never stated it would spend that much. Not publically anyway.
Nice one Channel 9. More bullshit to make your story sound better.

 

[Card Shark]

Demolishing parra stadium was a joke.

Money should've been spent on other 2 first!

It's one of the few I've never actually been to. (Allianz)

I've been hearing 3 bill for a few years.

Mmmmm, really? Where? Who from?
Sources?

 

[OldPanther]

Mmmmm, really? Where? Who from?
Sources?

Just the usual media sources over the years. Not that it means a lot if they change their plans.

Mate, it's always been 1.6 billion to be shared between Allianz/ANZ, + $300/350 million for Parramatta

Ok. Well I don't know why $3b is being talked about. I'm sure I've heard it before.

 

[Eion]

It's just another Utopia episode. Buffoons or corrupt or both.

 

[carcharias]

I love shark park

 

[Nice Beaver]

Good.

Put some f*cking money into the suburban grounds so people will turn up to them!

F*ck pumping it all into ANZ etc.

Why the F*CK was Parramatta getting another new stadium after the one they had was refurbed 20 odd years ago?

Brookvale will have some money thanks Premier. Just bypass that bald, corrupt turd at NRL HQ and go straight to the club

 

[East Coast Tiger]

GF -> Brisbane ASAP.

Greentard -> Centrelink even quicker.

 

[Desert Qlder]

Never in doubt.

 

[Generalzod]

Berejiklian is a waste of oxygen. She has no clue. She should be shot.

Why I don't think Tax payers money should be used to build football stadiums

 

[Raiderdave]

bulldose the shithole at homebush
sell the land
900 mill will get a decent 70K rectangle venue somwhere in sydney

You did read the line that said secret $3bn?

Basically the original plan of 1.6bn was not enough once ANZ cost blew out and ths SFS "found" their security problems. The Government has obviously come up with a plan to spend 3bn that included both stadiums being rebuilt. Now that was quite obviously the plan last week when the premier was in Asia and said they were going to spend as much as was needed to get the job done and even hinted at a stadium in Western Sydney (Pepper Stadium) being redone.

Now something has happen since she got back to Sydney and that plan has been scrapped with the cost going back to around the original $1.6 bn.

 

[jim_57]

Brisbane, Melbourne, Perth, Auckland and Adelaide all have 50k+ stadiums and would all be very interested if Grand Finals were put up for bidding. NRL should be making a stand on this.

Yes I did.

My question was......Was it EVER $3 Billion?
This sounds like more politics being played out in the media.
Just like Allianz is now a f**king safety hazard and dangerous to patrons.

This is what shits me.
There's no way this shit would be played out in Victoria. They would do anything to protect their native sport.
Meanwhile, here in NSW, we have political, media and sporting influences all begging for the $$$$$.
It's f**ked, and our politicians need to stand up for what's best for this state. It's OUR money they're spending on OUR sporting infrastructure.
f**k the AFL and f**k the SCG trust.
