The Game Future NRL Stadiums part II

Yes, the opinions of LU posters will have a major impact on policy.

Nor will afl posters like yourself

I’d say the other way round- you get snow up on the mountain but not really down at sea level on the shore where the stadium would be. Canberra more likely to actually experience snowfall in the city due to its elevation and inland location.

We don’t get snow in the city. Or at least very rarely. Canberra is colder in winter and hotter in summer than Hobart by the way

Best not to let the truth get in the way of your point of view, eh?

Is that you Mr Trump?

Let me guess, you think Biden is honest?

Wasn't quite the shoreline but last time we were in Hobart it was in September ( probably about 7 years ago ) and walked a few blocks up from the CBD and there was snow in the side streets, it wasn't shore level but it wasn't right up in the mountain either,

Not true, no such qualification. The LNP are actually incredibly wishy washy.

Talking to the Pride CEO today, the Barlow Park rebuild will begin in 2026. Temporary stands will be erected on the eastern Hill for the membership while the western stand is bulldozed and rebuilt.

“The Jets have received a $40 million commitment by three levels of government to upgrade North Ipswich Reserve and establish a centre of excellence.”

Will that turn it into more of a rectangle stadium? From memory it has an athletics track

Can’t imagine so unless they’ve got somewhere else to move athletics to, and that doesn’t seem likely in a place that size.

See the renders previously posted. It will have a stand that slides in over one side of the running track to bring it closer to the play.

Negative, athletics track is not going anywhere.

Does Cairns really need an athletics stadium that size? Seems like you could slap a track in any park and build a proper stadium for RL, a sport that will actually bring the crowds. Or stick the athletics track around the AFL ground, why does ours have to be f**ked by it?

AFL like taking over other grounds so they should be accepting of an athletics track at all their oval stadiums

The AFL owns Cazaly’s Stadium. The council owns Barlow Park.

It needs an athletics track somewhere and it’s probably expensive to move it. Plus it would host regional schools athletics events so it’d need some level of capacity and facilities. In a place the size of cairns you’re more likely to need to use facilities for multiple sports.

How typical of AFL, happy to move in on rectangle grounds to change to multi purpose but won’t allow others to modify their grounds
