Right size for a Queensland Cup team.Construction to start on massive revamp of historic Langlands Park stadium
The home of one of Queensland rugby league’s oldest clubs is set for a massive transformation as the team strives for an NRL licence.
A historic rugby league stadium is set for a mega transformation with construction on a mega $10.2 million redevelopment to start later this month.
The project at Coorparoo’s Langlands Park, which is more than 100 years old and currently the home of Hostplus Cup side the Brisbane Tigers (formerly the Easts Tigers), will be the first major upgrade at the grounds since 1999.
With construction scheduled to start mid-February, the works will include the relocation of the iconic heritage pavilion which was built in 1933, a new two-storey building, set to feature corporate suites, media rooms and administration offices, a 45-seat theatre as well as new grandstands to increase capacity to more than 4000 spectators.

The revamp comes after the club’s bid to become the 17th NRL team under the Brisbane Firehawks was unsuccessful but Tigers CEO Brian Torpy said the redevelopment was all part of the plan to earn an NRL licence in the future.
“The redevelopment of the grounds is very important for the club,” he said.
Langlands Park Stadium, known also as Totally Workwear Stadium, at Coorparoo.
“The provision of a first-class training and playing facilities here at Totally Workwear Stadium will complement the Langlands Park sporting precinct, which will include swimming pools and a 24-7 commercial gymnasium.
“We already have a first class playing surface and the new buildings and stands will provide a boutique stadium just 3km from the CBD and a stone’s throw from The Gabba.
“Totally Workwear Stadium will be a great facility, for not only for rugby league through statewide competition games, school competitions and carnivals, local games and finals, but also for other community sports and events.
“The field is already used for international and interstate university games and as a training venue for visiting NRL teams, Queensland Maroons and the Kangaroos.
“The club was disappointed with missing out on the 17th team licence but we have received very good feedback from the NRL in regards to the bid and we know what we need to focus on to become the NRL’s 18th team.
“We are committed to becoming the NRL’s next team, and we will be well and truly ready if the NRL decide to add additional teams to the competition.”
Torpy said works were expected to be complete by mid-November.
THE LANGLANDS PARK STADIUM REDEVELOPMENT WILL INCLUDE:
– Relocation and refurbishment of the heritage grandstand. The stand will be located behind the goalpost at the southern end of the field. The western wing of the stand will be transformed into a full wet-bar, while the eastern wing will contain amenities.
– The heritage pavilion will be relocated between the heritage grandstand and the current scoreboard. Constructed in 1933, the pavilion was the original players’ change rooms for Eastern Suburbs Cricket Club. The building will be used as a community meeting room and will be available as a corporate suite on match day.
– Gymnasium extension and refurbishment. The current gymnasium will be extended and will include a new ticket box and ground entry. The current home change rooms will be converted into a 45-person theatre, which will be used as a training room. The building will also include a kitchenette and a laundry.
– A new single-story building on the western side of the grounds will house new canteen,, espresso bar, merchandise shop and toilets.
– Also on the western side of the grounds will be a new double-storey building. The ground floor will include four female participation compliant change rooms, medical room, and match officials’ change room. The first floor will accommodate the club’s administration offices, board room, which will double as a corporate suite on match days, five corporate suites, coaches boxes, timekeepers’ box and a media room. A permanent camera platform will be constructed on the roof to film games and events on the field.
What's the salary cap for the Heineken Cup?
What is its broadcast deal with?
What's its TV ratings like?
How many people attend its games?
You've been proven wrong about everything else, and emphatically so too
EDIT
The 2018 deal for the Heineken Cup, shared between Sky Sport and BT Sport was worth a lousy £23.4 million a year. That's about $47m Australian. To put things into perspective, the A-League and Socceroos matches are worth $40m Australian per year. The current NRL deal is worth more than $400m Australian per year. The dickhead I'm arguing with wants us to believe this shit onionball competition is more prestigious than the NRL.
BT Sport to become exclusive pay TV home of European Rugby
BT Sport will become the home of the European Rugby Champions Cup and the European Rugby Challenge Cup from 2018 onwards after securing the rights to broadcast live coverage of all of the tournamen…sport-onthebox.com
It begs the question: If Heineken Cup is more prestigious, why is it worth ten times less than the NRL?

Stop digging and learn when you've lost.I know I shouldn't derail again, but goddamn you're dense.
BT Sport is a pay TV channel in the UK, you know Europe is bigger than the UK yeah? Like France doesn't get British TV. Wait you're from Logan, you probably think France is where pizza comes from.
Anyway lel thought I'd leave this one here, regular season Premiership game draws more than an entire week of Super League games on British TV.

The money that's earmarked for upgrades to Leichhardt should go to Campbelltown.
Correct they're more likely to go to the new Sydney football stadium
