Moving the Grand Final

[butchmcdick]

It was in Brisbane last year and the game seems to be doing ok so far this year

 

[Perth Red]

Yeah the one Greenberg signed. Was $10m a year
$15m for the 2 years it was at SFS while Accor was getting built. To cover the loss in ticket sales

Well if those States can justify the $25m fee then start the conversation, Until then it is a dumb move

If nsw govt are paying that for it why is Vlandys talking about stadiums as the thing that keeps the gf in Sydney?

 

[Perth Red]

seriously , the M&M sized balls of some in here is astonishing

You’ve clearly never worked to get deals with govts lol
rule #1 never make them look bad

 

[Danish]

you mean the clubs in sydney that have been screwed with a renege on the stadium deal by peritot , yea nah
they'll be fine

& you seem to be confusing our sport , ya know .. the one that banks 50 million profits off the back of covid , with another one that has financial issues & can't afford to take its GF for any price , any f**king where it wants

time for some spite !!

let’s take our grand final to a different city for less money and STILL not get any stadiums!

That’ll show ‘em

 

[Danish]

This is extra revenue not currently received. If they sold it for only $1mill, it’s still $1mill more than they are getting at the moment.

is tour claim that the GF is currently hosted in NSW for nothing?

It will dickhead
the embarrassment of accor sitting empty while 80K are at the MCG watching the NRL GF , or where ever & these places will still pay plenty for the privilege ... will get a reaction.

 

[T-Boon]

That is my question with it all. Why is it Stadiums to host it in NSW but another state can pay x amount and can host it

Because it should have always been the case that the GF is open to the highest bidder. We are trying to grow the sport and Sydney is luck warm about it.

Because he is a bully that has to get his way

He really has no idea

 

[Babyface O'reilly]

If it goes this year, I’d like it to go to NZ as a big thank you to the Warriors and it will do wonders for our game over there.

has only failed to get under 80K twice since homebush was re configured in 2002
2006 ..79,697
2017.. 79,627
both all non sydney GF's

so yea nah , they're hardly luck warm or even luke warm about it
its a very big event in the calendar in Sydney , probs the biggest. Thousands travel into sydney for it on that long weekend filling hotels , bars restaurants spending millions in the local economy.

If its lost to other cities , thats fairly at the feet of this NSW govt & their disgraceful behaviour.

 

[baselinepanther]

He really has no idea

& you're a nutless whimp

 

[AlwaysGreen]

Agree move it. Anywhere except Perth.

 

[baselinepanther]

Yes because RL is the only use for a rectangle outdoor stadium... you really are dumb

we're the major tenant idiot ,
no tenants
no $$
breach of catering & other stadium operating contracts meaning more compensation paid by the govt

yea , they'd be f**ked

 

[baselinepanther]

stand up to the f**kers , slimey dogs

I can see this thread spiralling into madness.

Sydney is Luke warm about attending nrl games generally. They don’t deserve the prize of the GF every year.
