New stadium - 2025

[Abacus]

Votes votes votes. Penrith is hot property.

Yes, in the lead up to the 2027 state election we'll no doubt hear about the new Penrith Stadium delivered during this term.

 

[Abacus]

I have had my seats on the Eastern terrace halfway since 1998.

I am the same

I sit in the Eastern stand. My main pain point is the setting sun in the afternoon impedes the ability to watch the game. This could be addressed by increasing the height of the new Western Stand (including increasing capacity). I hope some viewing practicality has gone into the design.

Politicians love Penrith.

 

[Goonji]

I would have been happy with a 30k stadium. 25k seems underwhelming. As stated by someone on here earlier, Penrith is a developing area, population will only rise.

Why Vegas again 2025 ?
Why not share Vegas with the other clubs ?

We have WCC vs Wigan this year. So will pop our Vegas cherry in '25.

Hopefully 2025 WCC won't clash with Vegas
Could be Panthers

I hope we go with less at Parra.

Send multiple to the bush

CommBank gets to have a good team host games there but not really much to gain as a club

I think I read a quote from Fletch somewhere but I can't remember where. We seem to be committed to Commbank stadium for the majority.

The Panthers will finish the current season in the existing stadium and next year will plan to play their home games in a variety of venues, including nine games at Commbank Stadium, one in Mudgee one in Bathurst and one in Las Vegas, Fletcher said.

Should throw Dubbo in too.

Reward that area for supporting the club, Crowds will be poor at CommBank anyway.

1 season there, likely doesn't bring in any new sponsors

I read that there are Visa issues now
Regarding Vegas USA this year
With some of the players from the 4 teams
