The Game Future NRL Stadiums part II

[Iamback]

Stadiums Queensland

Thanks.

If Broncos built their own Stadium for example.

The QLD govt bids for things like Magic Round, So will use Stadiums Queensland run Stadiums to host them

Western United's owners are funding their under construction stadium. Previous examples include Waverley Park in Melbourne funded by the VFL for $3 million and Football Park in Adelaide for $6.6 million by the SANFL as well as multiple renovations from the 1970s to 1997 by the Carlton Football Club at Princes Park, which they owned until 2003

Assuming Victoria Park is 60k I doubt they’ll get any events from the NRL like Origin or Broncos finals, I’d be annoyed if they did. Football & Union will hopefully feel the same way. Selling 7.5k extra tickets shouldn’t be worth shitting on your fans by playing on an Oval while a slightly smaller Rectangular stadium exists in the same city.

Hopefully Suncorp can follow not too long after the Olympics in getting an upgrade to 60k+. It will be 30 years old in its current form by then, older than parts of the GABBA which is allegedly on the verge of collapse. They should be starting the narrative early same as AFL and Cricket have done in the lead up to this decision, it will obviously help if Broncos can max-out their crowds there in the meantime.

Doubt it’ll happen but in an ideal world they’d use the GABBA site and all its new & improved transport links for a smaller rectangular stadium once the games are done.

Which is why the sydney situation is so problematic. Only cities in the world with multiple same sport stadiums are where clubs themselves have built them. Asking taxpayers to build 8 or 9 stadiums in one city is unheard of. The NSW govt has already built 4 RL stadiums in Sydney. And people are expecting them to fund another 4 or 5?

huh, doesn't London have a similar stadium situation? every soccer club has its own ground and then it has Wembley which isn't the home ground for any team.

Twickenham as well.

Will the design allow it to be modified to a ptporary rectangle and increase to 65k for origin or NRL GF if Suncorp capacity isnt upgraded

Unfortunately not with the current incarnation of the concept/schematic design.

Other plans for the Gabba site.

The only time I could ever see them using the new oval stadium is when it finally comes time to knock down Suncorp and do a full rebuild, post Olympics.

Isn't there some conjecture that the State Govt may still not accept this recommendation?

This was the recommendation of the report 6 months ago, and current Premier opposed it.

Yeh 7k extra seats would mean an extra 2 million in revenue for origin games and a bit more for corporate but not worth giving fans an awful viewing experience

Brisbane had the chance to build a stadium which could’ve landed the nrl grand final and raised tourism but instead opted for a white elephant that will never get filled post Olympics unless it’s day on or two of the ashes

`temporary`, is what you`re after.

Not sure the Western United stadium will ever be built. They can‘t even fill their temp 4.5k stadium.

Venues NSW or whatever the QLD version is will always have the concerts etc to make it not viable for the private venue

Not necessarily. Marvel gets more concerts than MCG or AAMI.

Or, you build a 65k rectangular stadium at the GABBA site and keep playing at Suncorp during the build. Then, maybe scale down Suncorp to 20k.
