The Game Future NRL Stadiums part II

[Perth Red]

New Wembley is plastic

scg looks like a proper cricket ground

anyway they aren’t proposing to demolish the members it’s one of the old concrete stands that has no heritage value

the members are heritage

I miss seeing the twin towers as you pulled up on the tube, but that is all about the old wembley!
Anything new is plastic, it gets history, surprise surprise, though use and time.

scg looks like an outdated relic compared to the other cities cricket/afl stadiums.

Can’t blame the AFL types. They’re used to getting everything handed to them on a platter and never pay for anything. They’re the farmers of Australian sport.

Not necessarily. Someone will take a one off game there every so often on an anniversary on some big clash between 2 clubs at the SCG in the past.
