The Game Future NRL Stadiums part II

[Trifili13]

It might be a reality check for Victorians when the US gives feedback out the MCG on social media. The victorians don’t take criticism well when it comes to afl or mcg

The Victorian's will be really worried what the American's will say about the MCG that it is not fit for a sport that is barely played in Australia or any other country outside the US.

I take it you're not familiar with the track record of Victorians when it comes to receiving criticism

So true.

I paid $200 for Origin ticket in a middling seat. Perth Origin ranges from $89-$340.
Point stands, the only people with a problem with it are the people who it makes no difference to as they have no intention of going lol

As a member I can get into Origin for $60 in Perth. $50 for the horrible seats at Origin Sydney. MCG last year had cheap seats for the horrible viewing.

there is no way given the price the govt paid plus the cost that anyone is getting into the NFL for under $200

Well hard to make that statement when we have yet to see the setup or the prices or anything.

This isn't the only event to try to come here, It is the biggest but Baseball also tried to start their season here and it failed

So we will see the feedback from those who attend but interest doesn't always translate

They will probably have a cry for a day or 2 and then go back to watching their AFL. Big deal. Hardly the end of the world.

No, the fumblers have long-memories. Hell hath no fury, like a fumble-fan spurned.

Agreed. And they aren't huge crappy AFL/cricket grounds. They are rectangular so a much better viewing experience.

Baton Rouge - 102 000 capacity. Rectangular.

Auburn. - 87 000 capacity.

This is how you do rectangular stadiums.

The MCG is somewhat good for cricket and handball.
It is honestly shite for anything else.

no yank has ever fisted a behind at those grounds though
