yes - AFL only managed to ruin the viewing at Homebushsydney is still the sydney pitch
At least they actually use the last threetrue
ruined the rectangle arena in Sydney
ruined the cricket pitches in Melbourne, Adelaide and Perth
The pitch has been protected. They’d have to pull down half of the SCG stands to remove it nowyes - AFL only managed to ruin the viewing at Homebush
We have kept the SCG pitch for now
How does it ruin the TV experience?The talk of moving the GF around and MCG comes up.if they’re serious, they need to somehow bring in temporary seating on the field as it’s a terrible viewing experience at the ground or tv watching a rectangle field in an oval field.
Optus was able to make it look less oval.

How could you do that without completely obstructing the view of the lower bowl?The southern half of the MCG will be rebuilt in the next five years. Hopefully they allow for some infill seating, which is not possible at the moment.
The same way as Perth. You build the main stand a couple of meters up off the ground, so you can place five rows inside the fence for rectangular sports. It brings everyone five rows closer.How could you do that without completely obstructing the view of the lower bowl?
These solutions for oval fields are shit anyway, as a small minority get a bit closer, but the vast majority are still miles away.
Seems like people just want this for the TV aesthetic and forget what the reality is
MCG will be 110k plus from what I've seen in news.The same way as Perth. You build the main stand a couple of meters up off the ground, so you can place five rows inside the fence for rectangular sports. It brings everyone five rows closer.
MCG is going to 105k, so would be about 107k with infill seats on one side.
And it will be f**king useless for every sport in the world except cricket.MCG will be 110k plus from what I've seen in news.
How blind are you?Dame as Perth, the lower bowl is fine with the fill in, but once your in the cricket-eque upper stands, you're squinting
At least the Grand Final sells out.And it will be f**king useless for every sport in the world except cricket.
What a waste.
