The Game Future NRL Stadiums part II

[MugaB]

A bit like V'landys and the Sydney RL media pushing the Bears on Perth. I hate to say it, but NSWRL fans are just as narrow-minded and selfish as their VFL counterparts.

The new topic donkey want to push onto every thread, no bears in perf.... whatever happened to relocating Canberra to Adelaide or Dragons to Singapore (you know coz Asians luv the Dragon)

He really is a dog with a bone whenever he gets a new thought in his head.
Usually after his last thought has been completely destroyed by reality.

Media Release: New Image shows devastating impact of AFL stadium on Hobart’s waterfront heritage - No New Stadium

Our Place has released a new architectural render showing the devastating impact the Cox designed AFL stadium will have on Hobart’s celebrated urban heritage.

nonewstadium.au

You can imagine the brawl this will lead to with greenies and other conservation and heritage minded people. Meanwhile the afl lost their battle to have the COE plonked in the middle of the city and are now demanding it be placed in the middle of Clarence thus killing off our parklands. Building it will cause traffic chaos and it’s very unpopular. Council has been forced by locals into a formal referendum on the matter. Long way to go with this one folks.

Is that the same Cox who designed the prior SFS with 60% plus with no cover, poor facilities for women? The same guy who designed it wasn't into any football code ,and his crap design sure reflected this.
As far as the Hobart thingy may it take as long as possible, I'm all for the AFL not getting their own way all the time.

Yes, same Cox Architects.
They actually designed the new Allianz and got it right this time. Only because they f**ked it up so badly the first time and were under the pump this time after the new Parra Stadium got everything so right.
It helped that they had an open cheque book from the State Govt.

Why are you going on about this? It is not a future NRL stadium. It will be oval. It’s happening. Get over it.

It’s touted as a future stadium for all codes. Luke marvel . You know the ground you keep crapping on about

Why would you pay to upgrade something you do not own? If you rent, you can't change any fixtures or fittings without the owners approval, and if you do, they get the long term benefit as you can't take it with you when your lease ends.

AFL through in $1m to accor 25 years ago and that $1m ensured it was rebuilt an oval

Strategic investment

Which was a dumb waste of money because they then abandoned playing matches there because it's a shit stadium.

Not so strategic investment

 

[Kurt Angle]

It prevented RL from getting a dedicated rectangular stadium in Sydney when they were in the initial stages of recovering from super league.

24 years later, were seeing the impact of purpose built stadiums now.

I'd say it was a very strategic investment
