The Game Future NRL Stadiums part II

[Munky]

Major events will be at the stadium with the appropriate capacity in the region.

Any event in a radius of Gosford, Katoomba and Wollongong will always be at the SFS or Homebush if the promoter believes they can get the crowd.

People in Camden will go to Moore Park for Taylor Swift or whoever. The extra half hour each way isn't go to deter them.

Any smaller show in the same region on a tour will be hyper expensive at a theatre venue in the major city

The NRL is continuing to apply pressure on the ACT Govt re the state of Canberra Stadium. Its good to see.
RA & SA / professional soccer leagues , need to chime in now too with their gripes about the potential missed opportunities

The " rectangle " sports in this city deserve better & our 1980's facilities for these sports are as redundant as they have ever been

'Sub-par' Canberra stadium facilities cost opportunity

The NRL has doubled down on its lashing of Canberra's GIO Stadium, saying facilities there are more suited...

Thanks for posting mate. I reckon the NRL should be more definitive about what games they want to feature there. Anzac Day clashes, tests, women’s state of origin (yes there was one already) immediately come to mind.

The amount of acts that would warrant a stadium tour is quite limited and the lifting of the cap will cover additional shows.

In addition to that one of the biggest music promoters in the world AEG runs Qudos Bank Arena so I wouldn't see them moving shows out to Penrith given the likelihood that the stadium would have a roof as well as not pushing revenue through a venue they own.

Penrith is a lot of money for single use. Let panthers upgrade & expand grand stands if they think they can draw bigger crowds

yes - NRL should promise a certain number of big games once the stadium is built. They could even join up with the ARU and soccer

The only ground improvement Henson needs is someone ripping out the fumbler posts

Surely Henson Park gets as much use as Leichardt Oval.

Interesting that Brisbane missed out on Taylor Swift, with part of the theory being that Brisbane's stadiums were too small.

Brisbane was 'definitely holding dates' at huge stadium for Taylor Swift, but she's not coming. Here's why

Much to the disappointment of Swifties in the Sunshine State, Brisbane will miss out on the superstar's Eras tour. A stadium manager explains why.

Perth did a well and Optus is a great venue that can hold 70k for concerts so not sure it’s just a capacity issue. Now a days big concerts are like sports events were govt’s are actually paying the artists to come. They are all bidding against each other.

These facilities are top notch

Made my debut at WSS for Parramatta v Manly last weekend, very impressed.

So, in other words, it made Brookie look like the dump it is and further reaffirmed why teams shouldn't be playing out of suburban shit holes?

That’s old news. Since the the Swans have moved on and their team won’t actually be playing there - Old Showgrounds is getting redeveloped for them (and Easts women)

Old Sydney Showground to be reborn as Showring Oval | Austadiums

Sydney’s former Showground at Moore Park is set to welcome elite sport once again, with a Centre of Excellence and sports oval capable of hosting AFLW matches for the Sydney Swans.

Highly likely as it’s also a WAFL venue

edit: looks like that isn’t the case any more, but it was, and that was the justification for earlier upgrades

I

think the Sharks are running closer to full capacity than that

I don’t think 11k counts!

I don’t think 11k counts!

we weally weally like rugbah leeeeg doesn't count either
