The Game Future NRL Stadiums part II

[Timbo]

If after years of the Raiders and Brumbies being unable to get a new stadium in Canberra, I don't really see how a team in a league that draws on average 7,000 fans to a game gets the ball rolling on it.

The A-League has the least demanding stadium requirements of any pro-sports league in the country. I don't know why they'd suddenly be able to get the ACT government to cough up a quarter of a billion.

Premier doesn’t play ball on Shark Park​

Chris O’Keefe has taken the debate to the footy field, asking the premier whether he would look at upgrading NRL facilities in Brookvale and Cronulla.
Perrottet doesn’t really want to play ball with this one, telling O’Keefe: No, the council should be doing that. Shark Park is a privately run stadium.
“It’s a council asset that they should upgrade. What I am focused on is investing in grassroots sport...we are also investing in making sure our grounds are the best they can be for young children.”

why would sutherland council upgrade it if its not theirs either?
assuming he's also referring to brookie and Leichardt

Ballymore trying to get more funding

Less is Ballymore: Capacity to be capped at 8000, short of Olympic needs

Another Games venue could end up costing more than anticipated, with revelations Brisbane 2032’s hockey ground needs more work than previously thought.

Stay on topic, not an NRL stadium.

Barr did say they needed a third tenant

hopefully a league do a bit of negotiating on this

Things change after the election and they are negotiating to keep the nrl grand final

personally I would prefer no money for those 3 and the nrl takes the grand final to the highest bidder it’s a much better result for the game

Brookie and shark park have had decent money spent on them and Lo doesn’t need anything anyway (what they spend will do nothing much for the ground)

Because it goes from 19 home games to 32. Yes the A league has the smallest crowd demands or maybe super rugby.

New grandstand? It was opened in 2008! Sharks got a $9.6m grant for it, and it holds 1500 seats.

Yeh that one

good you remember it

might’ve have been some other minor grants too

I remember when Morrison was in power he got a few grants for Cronulla

You shouldn't have too much trouble finding sources for those grants from Scomo then

 

[Perth Red]

Good news, hopefully clubs will now abandon this 1970's romantic notion of suburbia and play in 21st century stadiums more and more.

I’ve already shown you were wrong

no need to keep sticking the boot in lol

Selfish Sharks could off had a New Bankwest Southern Stadium built some where halfway between the Shire an Kogarah. Cut off your nose to spite your face as the saying goes. Both teams could off lobbied for it. Oh well keep your pissy little botique suburban ground.

As we take over your junior leagues and your home territory. Saints are nobody’s child.

Why half way between the Shire and Kogarah??
There were talks of a bigger stadium being built at Loftus, that way it not only was in Sharks territory, and be our home ground, it could be closer to half way of your merged teams, Illawarra and St. George, and you could use it.

 

[Pjf04b]

Who cares? As long as the new Penrith stadium is built all is good!

There you go again selfish Sharks supporters. News flash no taxpayers money for Shark Park an you won't be getting a new stadium built in the shire for the Sharks. So you get nothing.
