Peter V'landys - New NRL/ARLC Chairman

It was already leased prior to the NRL purchasing ithe property. So Id put the house on it being the case..



Its max 71 rooms - This isnt a big Hotel. NRL Patronage wont affect this as much as you believe. And Ive said repeatedly, its still going to be a contributer, just not a major one over the course of a financial year

Another poster commented how funny it would be if the nrl bought the ground then sold it for developers making the sharks move

My response was that was unlikely given the hotel they own next to the ground would lose value if that happened

Why would it lose value? It's a football field. It's not like any developers are going to lay concrete over Cronulla beach.

I've never met anyone who has booked a hotel room so that they get a view of a football field.

Silly man. You spend $400 on a room to save $30 for the ticket.

Panthers have 2 hotels on site,
Most clubs stay elsewhere.
Homebush hotels should never be booked for GF as Melbourne found out.

Being walking distance to a beach is what makes that Hotel a good choice, Not the NRL being up the road

I wouldn't say walking distance. It's at least 1km away from a beach. Maybe more.

It wouldn't make sense, especially a tinpot stadium like Shark Park.

It would be hilarious to buy it, then sell it off and force the Sharks to play in a modern stadium elsewhere, though!

I like the sound of the Central Coast Sharks....could be a winner.

Most people can walk that in 30mins. Point is I doubt it is vacant during the off season

Oh dear... That is 100% walking distance - Is 1km really too far to walk? (I apologise if you have some kind of injury)

In terms of the hotel at Shark Park, Sydney based sides won't sty there. Players of those clubs would rather sleep in their own beds.

As to inter-=state and over seases teams, the issue I'd suggest is the drive time from Kingfsord Smith airport. Add in that there is not a lot to do within walking distance, all up I'd sugest are probably a dis-incentive to them wanting to stay there.

They will be more interested in a view of Botany Bay and somewhere to walk their dog

whats it cost to put up an NRL team? around $7k a night? Hardly big bikkies. Nor is suggesting NRL wouldnt want want to lose games at shark park due to the hotel business. Presumably it is running at 70-80% occupancy on non game days so in reality a game might fill around 15-20 rooms extra for 12 days. 240 bookings max at $300 a room = $72k revenue in a year. Wow lol.
