The Game Future NRL Stadiums part II

[MugaB]

did someone say .... monorail

MONO..... DOH!!!

 

[Perth Red]

Im fairly sure he only meant WA, the assumption is also Adelaide, but he had never publically said it... but yeah its most likely inferred

He used plural “states”, not singular “state”

 

[MugaB]

He used plural “states”, not singular “state”

Yes, agreed, but in context to expansion that would mean no more future teams in minium of two from WA, SA, VIC, TAS, NT and ACT.... so the two states could be WA and VIC.
Sementics really, especially saying "states" when it could be states and territory's too....

 

[ground zero]

Perth an Adelaide don,t deserve a team until there leaders commit to at least a Bankwest type stadium at least 35,000 capacity. then talk expansion

 

[ground zero]

ICAC will be watching if Panthers get a new stadium before the Dragons. remember NSW taxpayers paid for the panthers centre off excellence . 20 million plus. entertainment centre at leagues club. 50MILLION. PLUS OFFER A NEW STADIUM 300 MILLION.
for panthers to profiteer. Icac is watching MR AYRES .
WE DARE YOU. NO PENSION FOR YOU. REMEMBER GLADYS GOT KNOCK OVER FOR NOTHING.

That would be a new or upgraded stadium in Wollongong right? Surely not funding a Sydney based stadium for a Wollongong based team when there are more than enough stadiums for the Dragons to rock up occasionally and use.

You need to get your facts right. Penrith paid for their own COE.
the only money they received from the state government was 12 million plus 12 million from the federal government when Tony Abbott was PM to go towards a convention centre.

In regards to the canberra civic stadium which absolutely should happen, I believe the key is for Canberra to get an A-League side. That would ensure that between the raiders brumbies and A-League it is tenanted with professional sports year rounds.

Add the existing W-League side as well as the odd concert, local sports GF days eyc. And you have a stadium that will get return on investment.

Yeh let’s make that a criteria for every nrl team. getting rid of a third of the Comp will deepen the player pool lol.

And a NRLW team.

There's no reason to believe that an A-league side will be the catalyst that gets the new stadium built.

Labour will just come up with a new excuse to put the stadium off if/when Canberra gets an A-league team, just like they have every other time one of their excuses have become redundant.

BTW, there's no way that Canberra United or an NRLW team could afford the rent on a new stadium independently. They might piggyback on doubleheaders with an A-league side or the Raiders, but they won't be paying tenants of the new stadium (or Bruce for that matter).

Roy reckons the change of leadership in NSW gov means any stadium rebuilds are now less likely

The key difference between NRL and AFL expansion

The NRL’s fortification of Queensland is akin to Trump’s wall, while the AFL’s $200m investment in GWS and the Suns resembles the Chinese Belt and Road Initiative.

Does anyone know where the new guy sits in regards to this?

He’d rather build a church!

 

[TheDalek079]

Surely a monorail is more suited.

I dunno.... seems more of a Shelbyville idea

well he was the treasurer so he'd know about all the financials of the deals

if perit... perot... peruat....the new NSW premier says its off the table,
then the NRL's grand final deal is off the table too & Vlandys should be very clear that the show will go on the road if the NRL doesn't get what it wants , deserves stadium wise in Sydney.

 

[baselinepanther]

starting with a boycott of their big brand new stadium at moore park

the clubs can play there sure , thats their business
But the NRL shouldn't play any finals or anything there til the NSW Govt plays ball.

I’ve thought for ages the NRL and A League ought to work together on stadium strategy and lobby state governments for funding, presenting on a united front. Year-round usage is a good justifier for investment.

Why isn't that stadium criteria applicable to clubs like Manly, Tigers and the Dragons?

And rugby union TBH.

Look at the new SFS, roosters, waratah and Sydney FC as marquee tenants is a pretty compelling case for the government to invest. That is approx 35 uses of the stadium each year not including finals. Then you add various international teams, concerts etc. And you have something that is going to be used near on weekly and inject plenty of money in to the local economy.

I believe a similar triumvirate in Canberra would provide a compelling case and do wonders for the city. I know for me personally, I have been to Bruce twice in the 2 years I have been here, one for a chooks game and the other a waratahs game. Put a stadium in the city and I reckon I go to 5+ other events per year just for the socials.

Ideally you would mimic the Moore Park set up and build an oval stadium next door for the cricket and AFL but don't think there is room for that.
