Parramatta Stadium playing surface

Panthers whinging because one of their players got hurt in an unfortunate tackle, that doesnt happen, panthers dont whinge. Knights had two players (Johns and Seage) do ACLs at Parramatta Stadium in 2004 with no players within 5m of them. Maybe if something like that happened you could question the surface, but not a guy breaking a leg because of the way he fell in a tackle.

Wow. I knew they bred them dumb in Newcastle but I didn't think they bred them this dumb.

You are aware that the state of the ground can have everything to do with the way a guy falls in a tackle, yes?

It was hard to spot at the ground because the edges are fine. the middle is terrible from about 10m in each side. We scored under the posts in the 20's and a huge chunk came up.

I can see it now on the replay. Looked like it had been used all day, terrible looking surface.

The pitches at Parramatta Stadium and ANZ stadium this season, have both been appalling and have been an accident waiting to happen there were massive divots coming out of the ground last night and the pitch was full of sand making it difficult to run and to turn. Something needs to be done be it a warning or a fine to these clubs.

Last time I checked this was a professional sport, not bush footy you imbecile.

The ground was not up to NRL standard.
And if you had read the entire post you would know I agree that there is problems you f*cking genius!

Fine the clubs for weather problems? The Cowboys would be f*cked then!
Get your greenkeepers certificate like Raudonikis and you might understand.
