The Game Future NRL Stadiums part II

No. I said NFL.

What reason do you think that no NFL or Premier League clubs have 90k+ stadiums?

Symantics College Football is the same sport

No, I was taking about the NFL. I was commenting that even the biggest, richest sport league in the world does not have an over 90k stadium.

I know what I mean‘t. I mean’t exactly what I wrote. You simply interpreted it incorrectly.

Sigh. Yeah, let's waste money on a ground which will be luckly to get 1-2 NRL games a year -

North Sydney Oval needs an upgrade to host NRL games. The mayor wants to make it happen

Excitement is building about the prospect of the Bears returning to their spiritual home, but the venue needs at least $10m worth of work to bring it up to NRL standard.

I'm pretty sure most of those stands at NSO are heritage listed, which would make things difficult for any upgrade. I bet those bench seats have been replaced many times over the years so they don't matter

Not $1 of NSW taxpayer money on NSO… this is a WA team…

They have another option …Play all the games in Perth if the stadium not up to standard

Or Allianz, Commank....

Trust me, you don’t want a roof. The roof at Marvel is extremely unpopular. A metal roof create shadows which broadcasters hate - hence why the Marvel roof is closed even on a dry 20 degree day. Watching sport in the middle of the day indoors with lights on creates a very strange atmosphere. Most don’t like it. A

I agree with you about Marvel Staduim, was there yesterday and walking in from a sunny warm afternoon into a dark cavern was so disorienting. One of the staff members i talked to mentioned about the roof and how the TV broadcaster want the roof closed so there isnt all the shadows. Was a very strange experience overall.

I’m sure the ns rate payers won’t mind another hike to improve one game a season at nso.

no nrl game should be played in a venue under 20k unless in a small regional town.

Greg Florimo said there are no plans to play at North Sydney Oval in the near future. Said there will be plenty of games in Sydney for bears fans to go to watch them play.

Nice arbitrary cutoff to make sure that shit box in Perth isn't excluded

Haven’t seen that quote

It’s been repeated multiple times nso will get at least one game and maybe two (one being a trial)

Probably have more Bears games in Sydney than Dragons games in Wollongong. If you look at another non heartland team- Storm have seven away games in Sydney this year.

Dragons, Manly, Cronulla, Souths, Roosters, Eels, and Penrith is the Storm's draw in Sydney. And Bears have a home game most likely at Allianz, and not NSO. So potentially eight games in Sydney.
