The Game Future NRL Stadiums part II

[Wb1234]

Don’t get me started (again). They’re making 3 games this year basically inaccessible to the majority of Brisbane. Probably shutting 15-20k fans out this weekend when they should be trying to build and solidify their fan base city wide.

Redcliffe can have 1-2 Thursday night and/or pre-Origin games and a trial.

Probably based it on dragons form last year

still dragons have a huge fan base up there regardless

He'll link you to a tiktok or a twitter post.
3 day passes look gone but individual days are still available.

Saturday is sold out and only single seats available for Friday and Sunday. Maybe 100 tickets in total.

See how the phins are tracking at the end of the year. I’m pretty sure nobody (them included) expected last years start and consequent bandwagon, they likely thought they needed Kayo to keep costs down and be able to maintain a good atmosphere at games while the team struggled in the first few seasons.

The Dolphins have gone pretty much exactly as I expected them to go.

It’s not just their stadium arrangement that’s stunting their growth either, their branding and marketing is amateur hour as well.

You expected them to win their first three and spend the first half of the season in the 8? I doubt many were that optimistic. I get that depth was always going to be their big issue as it turned out to be, but I doubt many thought the start would be as good.

With magic selling out so early the qld is missing out on tens of millions of extra revenue pa if they had a 70k seat stadium

they could even tie the upgrades to getting a few grand finals

 

[Wb1234]

They should play more games at Eden park now

This thread is going to be interesting come Monday with the release of the report on what to do with stadiums in Brisbane for the Olympics. 70k Suncorp is rumoured to be part of it

Let's hope that rumour comes true and the afl don't get a new stadium

Would love that. Give the GF to Brissey and keep it there until NSW government grow a pair and gets Accor redeveloped to proper rectangular stadium.

 

[beave]

wonder if the 70k Suncorp is just the western side knocked down and rebuilt bigger and extend the roofline upwards in that area?

Even still plus 20k is excellent result

Some form of re-development is a no-brainer. Olympics or not.

Who the f**k are you?

Why would the dolphins don't care about what some seaslug on the internet thinks.

 

[Foreign Legion]

If true about Suncorp watch out ,
massive bidding war for the NRL GF

Yeah - how dare someone have a contrary opinion on an internet forum!

Plus 20k seats for origin and magic mean close to 10 million more revenue for the good guys

The aim of the review is to reduce spending for the Olympics, so not sure a half billion upgrade to Suncorp is going to be announced. Most likely a small expansion of capacity under the existing roofline and improvements to amenities. Reckon a new 50k stadium at Victoria Park is likely as it will less than half the cost of the Gabba rebuild. What a mess!

Not about having a contrary opinion, its about being a pompous windbag.
