The Game Future NRL Stadiums part II

[Chins get the wins]

Lol.

The 2025 Panthers side will be the best "home" team to ever play in the new Parra stadium. It will be knocked down again in 40 years

 

[T-Boon]

No they shouldnt
Should always be in Sydney.

No way. There is no logical argument for that. It is a silly point of view.

This isn't new. This was released 6 months ago.

Plus shutting down Vulture and Stanley for construction won't be easy. And the school.

That design looks like it would be ridiculously expensive and a nightmare to build. I don’t think it was put forward as a serious costed proposal, probably more aimed at generating a bit of publicity for the architects. End of the day, I am not too concerned about the impact of a new stadium on rugby league, because I think there is a lot of growth momentum happening with league which won’t be stopped by a stadium. I’m not sure why others on here don’t have as much confidence in the game. Suncorp might get some minor renovations, but at the moment it is generally regarded as one of the premier league venues so not the same impetus to change it, apart from increasing capacity. Personally if I had to choose between VIC Park, Gabba, Hamilton or QSAC, I would go with VIC Park as a better ROI, but like everyone else on here, pretty sure the Government wouldn’t care what I thought.

AO, NRL Magic Round & AFL Grand Final Set To Drive Business Travel In 2025

Flight Centre’s Corporate Traveller data has revealed the top destinations for business travel around Australia’s major sporting events. Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane, and Bathurst—during the Australian Open, NRL Magic Round, AFL and NRL Grand Finals, and Bathurst 1000—experienced an average of 19...

"Corporate Traveller compared flight and ground transport to, and hotel bookings in, the host cities during these events across 2023 and 2024. Brisbane during the NRL Magic Round recorded the highest growth in business travel bookings this year, at 26 per cent "

Would appear that Magic Round is becoming a must-see event for corporate Australia.

Yes and No
The LA Coliseum was originally an Olympic Stadium with a standard athletics track.It was redeveloped by dropping the ground level and moving the seats closer. For LA 2028 , they will raise the ground level back to its original position with a temporary platform.

 

[Jonno]

Not possible for Suncorp

 

[Jamberoo]

Lol.
Where else were they going to play if they didn't sign that?

As an example, Port Adelaide wanted to play home games in China but the SA government did not allow that.

Interesting article but no figures other than stating that the tennis pulled 50% more than Magic Round, NRL GF, AFL GF, and Bathurst combined.

Never a bad time to call out your shit posting

So let's say you attend 1 game per week.
Let's call that 25 games per year.
Divide 1000 by 25 and that’s 40.
So the bestest rugby league fan eva! Has attended, on average 25 NRL games per year for 40 years! Of course our hero is better than that! He attends 50 games a year! For 20 years!

What a great feat, even through the covid years, the years where he stopped watching league and became a swans member. All the while updating us with tiktoks! This little trooper couldn't be stopped as he earned the deserved title of:
Bestest rugby league fan eva!!


Sorry for going off topic, but our hero deserves recognition. Perhaps they'll name a future NRL stadium after him!
