The Game Future NRL Stadiums part II

[Éamonn an Chnoic]

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.

It probably could be done at Accor,as sight lines of the upper decks hasn't changed since the 2000 Olympics.

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!

Yes I did laugh at that claim. 1000 games?

i wonder what the cost would be.

tear out the whole lower bowl, and build in 2 tiers (new corpoate boxes would be around current ground level).

chuck curtains across the upper decks and just reopen for the major events. Probably a capacity of 100k for big events

Accor is a total demolish job

The stands aren’t close to the field in some sections and then have a really low rake to make the view even worse

The normal stadium members seats are absolutely useless and even the old centre line seats below the coaches boxes it’s still average

Unlike say Suncorp where even in the back corners on level one the view is decent

It’s a shame Brisbane hasn’t learned from the mistakes of the Sydney Olympics

Clearly they have, or they'd be building an Olympic stadium which then replaced Suncorp.
