Im advocating for a stadium that is befitting of the Olympics that wont make Australia look like some hick backwater, AFL usage I dont care one or the other, it wont make a jot of difference to RL and so I leave to the loonies on here to get triggered about.

What, have you forgotten about that big toilet bowl in Sydney that made the world look differently at Australia?

How's that going for the sporting public ever since the Olympics? Hunk of junk.

Sydney actually got the Olympic stadium perfect. 112 000 capacity. Record crowd was 112 574 - Athletics Night 4. The largest Olympic stadium in history which was full for all day and night sessions for the athletics.
Where we f**ked up was during the re-build. Beholden to CA and the AFL. The fact it wasn't converted to full rectangular afterwards was criminal.

Meanwhile in Brisbane CA and AFL are trying it on again faithfully supported by some peanuts on this thread.

Not sure how anyone can criticise the Sydney games. They are widely regarded as the most successful ever. Every Olympics since has tried to emulate it. They got it 100% right. Hopefully Brisbane do too.

What happened after in Sydney though can only be blamed on the AFL and the piss weak Labor Government at the time.

Doesn't matter how it happened, it just did.

Anybody with half a brain would know the field was too small for those two shit sports. Will the dumbos up in qld take note? As is usual in politics, whoever gives them the most money will drive the course of their decisions.

If Sydney never had the games and Homebush didn’t exist, I wonder the set up would be now?

Probably a 65k SFS and more modern SCG as well.
